History
TAI was founded in 1989 by John Petersen.[3] The organization was incorporated in the State of Virginia on November 28, 1989 as The Arlington Institute for National Strategy.[4] Its name was shortened to The Arlington Institute on May 6, 1992.
On September 4, 1992, Petersen participated in a discussion at the Annual Meeting of the American Political Science Association titled "Desert Storm: Insights into the Future" alongside Neal Creighton.[5]
In 2002, TAI launched the Large Integrated Search and Analysis (LISA) system, intended to "scour the Internet and other media for information that might one day predict otherwise unpredictable events." TAI hired Semantix and Smartlogik to work on the project, along with a third unnamed technology partner.[6]
David E. Martin joined the Arlington Institute's Board of Directors in September 2006.[7]
On January 16, 2008, Petersen registered The Arlington Institute, Inc. in the State of West Virginia.[8]
In September 2008, TAI published an article discussing its WHETHEReport project related to predicting the future through dreams.[9]
On March 30, 2023, Petersen registered a second entity called The Arlington Institute in West Virginia.[10]
