Every Monday
The Radar
Organisations reveal their strategy through what they do, not what they announce. Each Radar maps one company on the same six branches, so fifty-two maps compound into a single argument about who owns which layer.
The six branches
| Branch | What it records |
|---|---|
| Owned | Subsidiaries, acquired companies and internal business units, each with a date confirmed from a filing or a company release |
| Built | In-house models, platforms and research capability, read from patent assignments and hiring rather than from marketing |
| Backed | Corporate venture portfolio and minority stakes, confirmed deal by deal |
| Bound | Partnerships and commercial agreements that behave like ownership without the paperwork |
| Beneath | What the organisation depends on and does not control |
| The gap | The one layer it has visibly failed to secure. The branch that carries the argument |
