Lifting Barriers, Bridging Gaps and Creating Opportunities

The Bloomsbury Intelligence and Security Institute (BISI) is a not-for-profit organisation that empowers students and emerging talent in intelligence, security, and policy.

We foster professional growth through hands-on experience, mentorship, and global collaboration across public, private, and academic sectors. By providing students with essential skills and knowledge, we aim to bridge the gap with training, networking, and portfolio-building, opening doors to an industry that has long been out of reach.
