Williams Inference Services Information

Williams Inference is the oldest and most respected name in inferential intelligence. Based in Highland Park, Illinois, we have been reporting to clients for more than 45 years. Our staff of full time analyst/consultants works with corporations and money managers across North America and Europe. Clients use our unique insights to inform their decision making and achieve superior performance—year after year. The Williams Inference approach to scanning focuses attention on those areas of the outside world where change impacts the business environment—be it economic, political, social, technological or demographic. Our starting point is the search for anomalies: irregularities, surprises and the unusual. These early indications of change may easily go unnoticed in today’s morass of information overload. Williams Inference maintains an extended network of skilled readers who monitor a broad spectrum of global information. Our sources include more than 200 publications, financial markets, books, film, television, and the Internet. After careful selection, anomalies are grouped in patterns that reveal emerging change. Gaining early insight into these new patterns of change is the key to anticipating and profiting from a volatile world.
