We provide world class intelligence training to a global clientele

Meet Your Instructor

Hi, I’m Cole - founder of ALCON Intelligence Ltd and a 15-year military veteran.

In high-stakes operations, success doesn’t come from reacting to chaos. It comes from understanding the landscape before things go wrong. Over the years, I was privileged to have spent time conducting OSINT research against national security interests both domestically and abroad.

A big part of my career was providing direct intelligence support to teams navigating complex, often volatile environments. What I learned is this:

“The real advantage comes from knowing where to look — because once you see the pattern, the noise makes sense.”

Now, through ALCON Intelligence, I help clients think strategically in uncertain times. This free workshop is my way of sharing those same tools with you - so you don’t need clearance, credentials, or a government badge to see what’s coming.
