Recently, the Oxford-Hyundai Motor Group Foresight Centre has been established focusing on contributing significant new research to the scholarly understanding of how foresight is conducted to inform business strategy, while also producing impactful outputs for practitioners.
Scenarios and foresight are part of the School’s Strategy group based in the Strategy, Innovation and Marketing (SIM) Academic Area.

The group is interdisciplinary – grounded in sociology, psychology, economics, cognitive science, and political science, as well as the arts and the humanities. Members regularly publish in top-tier journals and take leadership positions within the discipline internationally.
