The S2 Contrib (contribution) is our daily update brief providing you a short, sharp and to the point snapshot of what's important now. These are in the style of what you'd typically expect during a commanders update brief in the military.

Our primary focus is the Indo-Pacific and matters involving Australia and New Zealand, with some high-level global insights. However, if you are outside of the Pacific, we do believe there is significant value to still be had.

Please note that we cannot cover everything, and this information is curated based on what we judge as important for you to know.

Stay safe and stay ahead.
