Intelligence From Someone Who's Lived It

Meridian Risk Intelligence was founded by Jonathan Milikow, a former IDF special forces operator who has experienced firsthand how geopolitical events cascade into operational consequences.

After years operating in conflict zones and understanding how intelligence translates to action, Jonathan founded Meridian to help mid-market companies navigate supply chain disruption with the same operational rigor applied in military intelligence.

Why Meridian Is Different

Operational Perspective

Early Warning

The Mid-Market Gap

The Problem

Companies with $50M–500M revenue face the same geopolitical risks as Fortune 500 companies, but can't afford:

  • $150K+ salary for full-time risk analyst
  • $25K–100K/year enterprise intelligence subscriptions
  • Consulting firms charging $50K+ for one-time projects

The Impact

Meanwhile, they're exposed to:

  • Supply chain disruptions that halt production
  • Tariff changes that eliminate margins
  • Shipping route closures that destroy timelines
  • Regional instability that threatens operations

The Solution

Meridian fills this gap:

  • Enterprise-quality intelligence
  • Mid-market pricing ($1,500/month)
  • Operational focus (what to DO, not just what's happening)
  • Consistent weekly delivery

Is Meridian Right For You?

You have international suppliers or manufacturing operations

A 2-week shipping delay would cause production issues or missed deliveries

You don't have someone monitoring geopolitical risks full-time
