POLITICAL ANALYST & WRITER
Marc Scanlan
Middle East, the Gulf, and energy.
For twenty years I produced the research, analysis, and writing behind a private advisory practice whose counsel reached foreign ministers and senior figures across the Arab world, Europe, and the US. I now run Focal Point, working with organisations that need senior analytical judgment and writing, and with those putting AI to work in research.
Analysis, writing, editorial direction, and AI in research-intensive work — delivered ready to use, without another layer of synthesis or editing.
