Welcome to the Sigma Scan - a searchable repository for horizon scanning papers, designed for government users. To create it, the Horizon Scanning Centre has collected 'evidence of the future' from more than 6000 document sources and interviews with 300 leading thinkers, and condensed this into 250 short papers to challenge assumptions and spark ideas.
