Blake White founded the Strategic Technology Institute (STI) in 1985 as an outlet to investigate the business and public policy issues raised by science and engineering. Over the past 24 years, STI was also formerly known as Strategic Systems, Inc. and Strategic Technologies, both of San Francisco
STI has evolved into a network of independent consultants that provides executive-level management advisory services focused on corporate strategies, often facilitated by technology innovation, at the intersection of the Media & Entertainment (M&E) and Information Technology (IT) industries. An example of this intersection is where multi-platform distribution of digital media assets by secure IT-based supply chain systems creates new business opportunities for media, telecommunications, computer, and consumer electronics companies in adjacent markets.
Beyond the M&E industry, STI is also a virtual ‘think tank’ that investigates emerging IT developments and the business, organizational, and public policy issues raised by science and engineering.
