BRINT, The Knowledge Creating Company^tm, is the world's epicenter for more than a decade from which two new technology management disciplines, business technology management and knowledge management, are being adopted across all countries of the world.

The BRINT Institute is dedicated to defining research, practices, and thought leadership relevant to growing, transforming, and sustaining high performance enterprises, corporations, and governments for the new world of business. BRINT (short for Business Research in Information and Technology) was originally conceived to bridge the gaps between business and technology, data and knowledge, and theory and practice as chronicled in June 1998 issue of Fortune. For more than a decade, BRINT has serviced the learning, networking, and professional growth needs of millions of users on average in any given month. We have been developing and advancing worldwide business technology management and knowledge management research and practices for the post-industrial world as evident from our decade long track-record of worldwide impact across most countries of the world. Instead of remaining stuck in the obsolescent paradigm of 'IT' for managing 'data' and 'information', we consistently focus on managing what really matters: change, uncertainty, and complexity.

BRINT Institute is the champion of business and technology management practices relevant to the brave new world of business, also described as a world of radical discontinuous change events now popularly known as 'black swans'.

BRINT Institute counts among its clients and partners world's largest technology and marketing organizations such as Google, IBM, Ogilvy & Mather, Hewlett Packard, Foote Cone & Belding, TBWA \ Chiat \ Day, AMD, Microsoft, Xerox. The global impact of the thought leadership of BRINT Institute is self-evident in the policies, strategies, and practices of world governments and worldwide organizations across most countries of the world. BRINT Institute is the champion of business and technology management practices relevant to the brave new world of business, also described as a world of radical discontinuous change. This world full of continuous surprises of unforeseen dimensions and change of uncharted scale is characterized by evolving models of work, workplaces, business enterprises, institutions, and other formal and informal organizations. This is the world in which the success formulas and best practices of yesterday could become failure traps of today and enterprises that were Goliaths of yesterday may become dinosaurs of tomorrow. Until this point, you may have read about this new world in some of the popular books on business transformation, change management, knowledge management and e-business. Welcome to the marketspace where this world is being charted, understood, defined and practiced... welcome to the new world of business!!

[Global Impact of BRINT Network Web portals]

BRINT (short for Business Research in Information and Technology) emerged in the early 1990s when most practicing managers and academics envisioned little of significance in the future of the just-born World Wide Web. Ironically, the cover story on the 'virtual corporations' was published by Business Week in its February 8, 1993 issue, yet most did not see the future at that time!

This venture laid the foundation of the Business Technology Management discipline through the launch of the BRINT "The BizTech Network" content portals followed soon by a virtual global community of practice spanning all countries of the world. These are the first and foremost content and community portals on Business Technology Management that preceded the dot-com era and continue to maintain their top-ranked status. Through the above ventures, we pioneered the development of focused understanding about new information technologies in the context of business management and business performance for increasingly complex and uncertain environments.

To advance beyond the persistent 70%+ failure rates of IT platforms despite increasing sophistication of IT, we developed the foundational basis of Knowledge Management as a discipline of systemic risk management for business environments characterized by radical discontinuous change events. (In the aftermath of the global financial crisis of 2008, such highly improbable events have been popularized as 'black swans' as named after a business best-seller of the same name.) This functional paradigm is the first to develop deep holistic (based on 'systems thinking') and dynamic (based on 'system dynamics') understanding about the people-process-technology relationships for systemic performance and has withstood the test of time. It squarely addresses the integration of people and process aspects that are critical for realizing the success of computational technologies in a radically changing world. The foundation of the systemic risk management focus on knowledge management was further reinforced through our creation of the world’s first content and community portals on Knowledge Management. These are the foremost content and community portals on Knowledge Management that preceded the boom-bust-boom cycle of KM in the USA and continue to maintain their top-ranked status.

The original mission of BRINT Institute since its launch was to bridge the gaps between business and technology, data and knowledge, and, theory and practice as noted by a Fortune magazine cover story on the knowledge economy in 1998. Over subsequent years of its existence, this social enterprise achieved its mission of developing and disseminating worldwide its vision of thinking and practicing about innovative information and communication technologies as means for facilitating organizational and individual performance, success, and fulfillment in an increasingly unpredictable world. Over this span, it held its status as the first and foremost resource top-ranked for its focus on developing research, knowledge, and practices relevant to two new technology management disciplines, Business Technology Management and Knowledge Management. With the global dissemination and adoption of the two disciplines and their integration in various business school curricula and organizational best practices, its original mission was considered accomplished.

By 2005, our research focus on systemic failures and extreme events recognized for its impact by AACSB International had advanced to make us ponder about a possible forthcoming systemic failure of the global finance markets. The rest is history.
