ABOUT THE INSTITUTE FOR INTERNATIONAL RESEARCH

IIR is the world's leading knowledge and skills transfer company with a global network of 46 companies and 111 operating units. Every year, IIR works with 600,000+ business executives providing them with knowledge and skills through training, conferences, seminars, e-Learning, blended solutions, publications, exhibitions, consulting and mentoring. IIR's clients have grown with them. The list of IIR graduates, delegates, faculty, advisory board members and stake holders is a virtual who's who of the corporate world and spans the breadth of the Fortune 1000 and the FT index. For many companies, where IIR training programmes have been customised to solve specific business issues, IIR's knowledge and skills provision has become so critical a component of the organisation's success, that graduating from the IIR curriculum is part of the core competencies required for promotion. In a world of ever decreasing boundaries, it is clear that the only sustainable form of competitive advantage is intellectual capital. IIR companies share a passionate belief in the power of effective knowledge and skills transfer to optimise an organisation's intellectual capital. Even more importantly, for almost 3 decades, IIR has proven time and again, that it knows exactly how to do it.
