Reimagining statecraft for a digital age by AI, capital, and code.
Navigating the New Systemic Interplays of Global Power, Tech and Finance.
A World in Flux
At the intersection of Technology, Finance, and Geopolitics, seismic shifts are underway.
The U.S. and China are locked in a race for tech supremacy. Digital currencies are redrawing monetary boundaries, while de-dollarization accelerates the rise of CBDCs and alternative payment rails. A multipolar world is emerging, with great powers vying for influence across emerging markets, as nations begin to prioritize real & productive growth. The pace of technological change and global upheaval is forcing policymakers to navigate unprecedented governance challenges.
Through my work, I decode these complexities for governments, institutions, and private-sector firms, crafting strategies that turn disruption into opportunity — enabling them not just to adapt, but to lead in the exponential age.
About Me
“Innovation isn’t just about creating new tech — it’s about rethinking the systems that shape our world.”
Tanvi Ratna is a tech policy & geopolitical analyst with a decade of experience navigating the systemic interplays of global power, technology, and finance. Through Policy 4.0, her think tank, she has advised 44 governments and multilateral institutions like the G20, IMF, UN, World Bank, and BIS, across sectors like AI, Crypto, Digital public infrastructure (DPI), and manufacturing. Her work experience spans Capitol Hill, where she worked with the GOP House Committee (Foreign Affairs), leading EY’s blockchain team, and cofounding CAG- a pioneering political campaigns startup instrumental in PM Modi’s landmark victory.
Her analyses has been featured in outlets like CoinDesk, BBC, Al Jazeera, The Diplomat, CoinTelegraph, Fox News, Economic Times, etc, including translations in over 20 languages across 50+ countries.
Tanvi’s distinctive value lies in her ability to anticipate emerging risks and structural shifts before they break into mainstream discourse. Her work regularly identifies second- and third-order effects of exponential technologies—whether modeling AI’s implications for labor-markets and industrial policy, reverse-engineering China’s CBDC playbook to map dollar system threats, or dissecting chokepoints across HiTech supply chains.
She brings a multi-faceted expertise drawing from firsthand immersion in fast-growing regions: witnessing UAE’s rapid economic transformation; working on Singapore’s model governance system; and implementing India’s billion-scale DPI projects. In the U.S., at Georgetown she learned from CIA analysts & military generals, while Capitol Hill revealed the trade-offs of managing people and power. These live environments have shaped her nuanced lens on global innovation and institutions.
On a personal front, Tanvi is a meditation teacher and biohacking enthusiast, channeling mindfulness and wellness to stay sharp for high-stakes challenges.
