Global Risks. National Priorities. Frontier Technologies.
Global risks are converging faster than most institutions can assess, test, and respond to them. AI, cyber, critical infrastructure, energy, climate, supply chains, health, finance, and geopolitical disruption are no longer separate domains; they increasingly interact, compound, and shape national priorities together.
The Global Centre for Risk and Innovation (GCRI) is a fiercely independent, non-partisan public-interest institution with Special Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) since 2023 and an active network spanning 120+ countries. Together with the Global Risks Forum (GRF) and the Global Risks Alliance (GRA), GCRI is advancing the Nexus Consortium to help countries and institutions connect global risks to national priorities—and move from fragmented analysis toward coordinated testing, evidence, and action.
A central part of this model is Nexus Universe: an annual temporary high-performance computing, high-speed network, and frontier-technology environment where emerging technologies and critical capabilities can be assembled, integrated, stress-tested, and benchmarked against real-world systemic risks before wider adoption.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

The objective is practical and urgent: help de-risk national portfolios of strategic technologies, infrastructure, and resilience priorities before major policy, capital, and deployment decisions become difficult to reverse.
The consortium is now appointing a select Leadership Council of senior leaders who already hold significant executive or institutional responsibilities and can contribute alongside their existing roles.
We are seeking leaders who can:
- Bring an authoritative perspective from a country, city, region, sector, institution, or international network
- Connect national priorities with emerging global risks and opportunities
- Convene senior decision-makers across government, industry, science, infrastructure, and capital
- Mobilize institutions, expertise, technology, infrastructure, partnerships, and resources
- Identify strategic priorities that should be tested, challenged, and de-risked before large-scale adoption
- Build coalitions capable of moving from risk identification to evidence, readiness, and action
- Contribute at national, regional, and global scale

This is not an employment opportunity. Council Members remain in their existing executive or institutional positions and serve through a formal strategic and consultative appointment. Where formal representation is involved, the appropriate institutional or jurisdictional mandate is required. Appointment is selective and subject to GCRI Canada's membership and governance framework, applicable membership commitments, fit-and-proper review, independence, and conflict-of-interest requirements.
The formation window is now open. We welcome nominations and expressions of interest from leaders who can help answer a defining question: How should national priorities be tested, strengthened, and de-risked against the global risks and frontier technologies that will shape the next decade?
