About Boldozer Consulting

Boldozer Consulting works at the interface of geopolitics, business strategy, and AI governance, supporting clients in strategies about fragmented regulatory systems, emerging compliance regimes, and operational risks tied to global instability.

Our expert panel comprises of various specialists in three main areas:

• AI governance and international law;

• risk assessment, sanctions and weaponization of trade; 

• political communication and conflict-zone media strategy. 
 

This interdisciplinary composition allows us to deliver targeted, context-specific solutions for clients facing regulatory ambiguity, geopolitical exposure, and operational risk.

Boldozer Consulting supports companies in understanding and responding to geopolitical risk and regulatory complexity.
 

We examine how political developments — ranging from sanctions and trade restrictions to regulatory shifts and data governance frameworks — affect markets, supply chains, and operating environments. We track how state interests influence commercial rules, investor expectations, and the broader conditions in which businesses operate.
