Strategic Partnerships ORF actively engages with global and regional institutions (UNICEF India, RIS, University of Lucknow, BRICS forums) which signals openness to collaborative research, policy briefs, and joint events that could be monetized through sponsored studies, joint conferences, or customized policy reports.

Government & Policy Access As a leading think tank focused on security, economy, development, and governance, ORF’s policy influence with governments and decision-makers presents opportunities for paid advisories, executive briefings, and commissioning research aligned with current national and BRICS-era policy priorities.

Regional & BRICS Focus Active involvement in BRICS-related events and forums indicates demand for research, scenario planning, and strategic insights on BRICS connectivity and human capital development, offering avenues for paid think-tank reports, presentations, and bespoke policy analyses.

Digital & Outreach Capabilities Use of tools like Google Workspace, Azure, Canva, WordPress and Mailchimp suggests robust digital platforms for client-facing content, webinars, and digital publishing partnerships; potential to offer premium research portals, data visualization services, and sponsored content.

Growth & Talent Vertical Recent leadership appointments including Women-Led Futures and notable hires point to thematic expertise expansion; opportunities exist to license or co-create research programs, executive training, and niche foresight reports targeting female-led policy innovation and next-gen policy leadership.
