Simulations Redefined
Capital Shield is redefining 21st Century crisis management exercises. We combine the expertise of national security professionals with cutting-edge crisis exercise software to prepare leaders for their most difficult days. Think of us as the flight simulator for crisis leadership. Pilots don't learn by reading manuals. They strap into a simulator that mimics the real conditions, pressure, and uncertainty they'll face in the cockpit. We do the same but for decisions that determine national, corporate, and institutional survival.

"Foresight represents a step-change in how we prepare leaders for the realities of modern crises. It creates the kind of pressure, complexity, and uncertainty that senior decision-makers must master, whether in government, defence, or across our coalition partners. Capital Shield is delivering a sovereign capability that strengthens both Australia and the wider Five Eyes community."
Prof. Admiral (Ret'd) Chris Barrie AC
Former Chief of the Australian Defence Force
