About

Twenty years on the ground. A new generation of questions.

Solo Institute is the carrying of the risk and crisis discipline into the age of sustainability.

Twenty years on the ground. A new generation of questions.Field · Incident Command

The experts of Solo Institute began their careers in decision-making roles on subjects that demand both technical skill and field experience — emergency management, business continuity, risk analysis. That journey reached from the gas and energy sector to finance, from heavy industry to textiles, from multinational corporations to United Nations agencies.

Today we direct the same discipline towards a new question: are organisations ready for the greatest transformation of the era — the sustainability transition?

The answer does not come from a place different than classical risk frameworks. Climate is a risk. Social impact is a risk. Supply-chain fragility is a risk. We specialise in the disciplined management of these new risks, in making them measurable and in translating them into applicable steps.

Interdisciplinary team

Risk in real life never stays within a single discipline.

  • Political Science and Public Administration
  • Industrial and Systems Engineering
  • Social Sciences
  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Outdoor sports and search and rescue (field)
  • Risk and sustainability standards

This diversity is not coincidental — our experts started in their university years with field practice in outdoor sports and search and rescue.

How we work

Three principles.

The field has the last word.

No report is meaningful until it comes down to the ground.

Standards are tools, not goals.

TS, EN, ISO, GRI, ESRS — all are instruments. They are worth as much as they serve the decision.

Applicability is the final word.

A plan that is not played does not exist.

Our values

Five values.

Realism
We work with proposals that can come down to the ground and be measured.
Rationality
We produce knowledge that can support decisions; good intent is not a wish.
Accountability
We stand behind the solutions we propose.
Innovation
When conventional solutions are not enough, we design new ones.
Humanity
Risk and continuity, in the end, are about people.

Mission

Disciplined management of new risks.

To provide our stakeholders with training, consulting and audit services in light of the new risks, climate and social impact issues that arise in a changing world; and to act as a guide in the analyses and audits we carry out on behalf of the organisations we represent.

Vision

Multidisciplinary. At home and abroad.

Solo Institute supports its stakeholders, in Turkey and abroad, with a multidisciplinary approach to risk, climate and sustainability. We bring innovative and applicable solutions, drawing on more than twenty years of experience across the public sector, civil society and private industry.
