Impactio, MTRI and Magellan Global

Meridian begins as an Impactio initiative. Impactio helps researchers show the impact of their work; Meridian gives that work a wider audience. MTRI, the group’s research institute in Tokyo and Singapore, reads the papers with us and keeps the questions technical. Magellan Global, headquartered in Singapore, is the group behind both.
