Investor Notice

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks, uncertainties and forward-looking statements described under “Risk Factors” in Item 3.D of our most recent Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. If any material risk was to occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In that event, the value of our securities could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment. The risks and uncertainties we describe are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations. In addition, our past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results in the future. Future changes in the network-wide mining difficulty rate or bitcoin hash rate may also materially affect the future performance of Bit Digital’s production of bitcoin. Actual operating results will vary depending on many factors including network difficulty rate, total hash rate of the network, the operations of our facilities, the status of our miners, and other factors.

Kearney Launches Geopolitical Service Line to Give Executives New “One-Stop-Shop” for Navigating Elevated Global Uncertainty

Published

on

By

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Kearney, a leading global management consulting firm, today announced the launch of its newest offering, aimed at helping clients steer their companies through our ever-changing world. Kearney’s Geopolitical Dynamics provides executives with a holistic solution to navigate today’s elevated instability and its impact on business.

In a new era marked by persistent economic uncertainty, regulatory shifts, great power competition, and corresponding escalations, executives face an unprecedented volume of challenges and new opportunities. A recent Kearney assessment determined that fewer than 20% of Fortune 500 companies are ready for this “new era,” defined by heightened geopolitical and economic volatility, a shift from globalization to regionalization, and the emergence of artificial intelligence.

While traditional geopolitical advisory models served clients well in a more stable environment, today’s persistent uncertainty calls for a new approach. Kearney is stepping up with a comprehensive, end-to-end solution that enables executives to proactively navigate complexity and transform it into a catalyst for opportunity. Geopolitical Dynamics offers clients a path to accelerate the development of their in-house capabilities to navigate the implications for their strategy, operations, and people, mitigating risks and capitalizing on emerging trends along the way.

“After 40 years of operating in a globalized landscape, executives now face the urgent challenge of building internal capabilities to navigate heightened geopolitical instability. They must address immediate threats to business while managing long-term planning of markets, supply chains, and the broader enterprise,” said Drew DeLong, Global Lead of Geopolitical Dynamics at Kearney. “This new service is designed to give executives a one-stop shop to navigate with confidence and stay ahead.”

Geopolitical Dynamics offers a comprehensive suite of services that covers every stage of geopolitical management:

Granular Business Intelligence: Anticipating the “what’s next” and “what’s to come” at a granular level in partnership with an expansive global network of intelligence, government, and industrial partners.

Executive Priority Setting: Aligning executive teams and boards around where and why priorities should be set based on all readily available intelligence and business-specific nuances using tabletop exercises, granular scenario planning, and targeted diligences.

Operational Execution: Mobilizing supply chains and enterprise footprints to respond to immediate and long-term needs (including contingencies), leveraging nearly 100 years of Kearney’s heritage and excellence in strategic operations.

Geopolitical Org Ownership: Defining who and how geopolitics are owned and managed within the business today—at the board, CEO staff, and management levels—including the charting of Geopolitical Units and deploying Government Affairs to drive business outcomes through targeted government engagement that drives competitive industrial strategy.

This approach provides a simple but powerful solution to anticipate, plan, and respond faster to emerging threats and opportunities with clarity, speed, and ownership while minimizing disruption to the business—something that is critical to the executive agenda today.

“Boards and leadership teams can no longer afford to treat geopolitical matters in isolation from the standard course of business,” noted Colette LaForce, independent Board Director, Kearney advisor, and former CXO of Dell Services and AMD. “The C-suite needs a streamlined solution that cuts through generic intelligence, aligns our teams, and enables rapid response. Kearney has built a model that is designed to do just that for organizations of all sizes and in all sectors.”

This offering will draw on Kearney’s expansive capabilities to offer executives truly differentiated insights: product design analysis from PERLab, on-the-ground data from reshoring experts, market insights from the Consumer Institute, detailed trends from the Supply Chain Institute, and macroeconomic forecasts from the Global Business Policy Council.
