The Institute for Foreign Policy Analysis is a small, independent think tank based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, focusing on national security, foreign policy, and defense planning. It serves senior government policymakers, industry leaders, and public policy professionals by providing analysis to support informed decision-making in a volatile global security environment. Its staff combines scholars, business professionals, retired military officers, and foreign policy specialists who bring diverse perspectives to each assignment. As a nonpartisan research organization, IFPA operates within the think tank ecosystem to deliver objective analysis on complex policy challenges. In October 2023, IFPA announced a partnership with the Organic Trade Association, signaling collaboration with policy stakeholders beyond traditional security circles. The initiative involved bipartisan leadership on the bill, with Rep. Newhouse and Rep. Panetta guiding sponsorship.
