PROVIDENCE, R.I. August 4, 2026: As organizations contend with accelerating technological disruption, shrinking planning horizons, and growing uncertainty about what comes next, tech services firm SQA Group today announced the formalization and expansion of its Foresight & Futures business unit — dedicated to helping organizations build an always-on, future-readiness capability that anticipates change, transforms emerging uncertainty into strategic opportunity, and strengthens long-term organizational vitality.
While no business or leader can predict the future, organizations can become significantly better prepared for it. Drawing on the disciplines of strategic foresight, futures mapping, systems thinking, and design-led innovation, SQA Group’s Foresight & Futures practice helps leaders pressure-test today’s strategies and investments, explore multiple plausible futures, reduce strategic risk, and uncover new opportunities for growth and competitive advantage.
The expanded practice expands SQA Group’s technology and advisory portfolio, bringing together proven foresight methodologies with the firm’s deep expertise in technology transformation, data, AI, and digital innovation. By integrating these complementary disciplines, SQA Group helps organizations move beyond understanding change to translating insight into action.
“For more than 25 years, we’ve helped organizations navigate periods of profound business and technological change,” says Carrie Majewski, SQA Group Chief Growth & Innovation Officer and Certified Foresight Practitioner. “But today, responding to disruption once it arrives is no longer enough. The leaders creating lasting advantage aren’t waiting for disruption to become obvious; they’re preparing before it arrives. Foresight & Futures helps organizations expand their field of vision, uncover new pathways forward, and build the confidence to act with strategic optionality.”
Combining strategic advisory and capability-building services, SQA Group’s newest practice equips organizations with the tools and frameworks needed to intentionally shape what comes next. Services include business model innovation, scenario modeling, viability and threat stress-testing, horizon scanning, unexpected signal convergence, executive think tanks, and cohort-based learning experiences designed to embed future-ready thinking across the enterprise.
“Today, leaders are operating in an environment where disruption is constant, expectations are evolving rapidly, and the ability to anticipate change has become a defining competitive advantage,” says SQA Group CEO Rob Lanza. “Foresight & Futures reflects our belief that organizations need more than just insights into what’s arising now. They need capabilities to identify what’s emerging, evaluate future opportunities and risks, and make strategic decisions that position them for long-term success.”
