Helping clients separate benefit from risk.
Winsafe was founded in 1986 after a buyout of the technology assessment operations of the National Computer Centre. The mission of Winsafe was, and is, to help clients separate benefit from risk with regard to the use and exploitations of new technologies in general and digital information and communications technologies, content and services in particular
Clients are typically investors, finance directors or decision taker requiring an objective third party appraisal as to whether a business or market opportunity, product, service or policy proposal merits their serious consideration and/or support.
Regular clients have included the National Computing Centre, The High Tech Unit of Barclays Bank, The Parliamentary IT Committee (PITCOM, which later evolved into PICTFOR) , the European Informatics Market (EURIM, which later evolved in the Digital Policy Alliance) and Reed Elsevier.
Winsafe consultants have been involved for over 40 years with assessing, predicting and monitoring the impact of machine learning (algorithmic /augmented, more commonly known as artificial, intelligence) on the aptitudes and skills in demand.
This gives a unique perspective on what is now under way. 2026 onwards is likely to see changes in the nature, structure and funding of UK education and training not seen since the printing press and the dissolution of the monasteries and chantries from 1536 onwards.
Members of the Winsafe consultant panel operate to strict codes of impartiality and have given evidence to and/or been retained as specialist advisors to select committees, government departments and ministers.
