Birdwatcher Group is a Hague-based consultancy specialized in intelligence, security, and institutional reform in fragile and complex environments. Founded and operated by former military intelligence officers, we deliver tailored, intelligence-led solutions to governments, international organizations, and private sector partners operating in or engaging with high-risk regions.
Our core mission is to support stability, mitigate threats, and strengthen institutional resilience. We do this by offering three integrated service lines:
- Strategic Investigations: We conduct discreet and comprehensive investigations into geopolitical risk, corporate espionage, disinformation, and organized corruption. Our intelligence products support informed decision-making in sensitive environments.
- Technical Intelligence Solutions: We provide cutting-edge tools for intelligence collection and analysis, including open-source intelligence (OSINT) platforms, surveillance technology, and secure communications systems. These tools enable our clients to detect, analyze, and respond to emerging security threats effectively.
- Security Sector Reform (SSR): We advise and support governments in reforming their security institutions, with a focus on transparency, accountability, and operational effectiveness. Our experts assist in building national intelligence strategies, designing reform programs, and training security forces in line with international standards.
Our work is grounded in a deep understanding of the security domain, shaped by decades of operational experience. Whether addressing hybrid threats, strengthening civil-military cooperation, or protecting critical infrastructure, Birdwatcher Group operates at the intersection of intelligence and policy to enable secure and stable futures.
