Join Sayari at the US Embassy in London to explore how open source commercial intelligence can be applied to combat financial and economic crime, enforce sanctions, and protect the UK’s national interest. Discussions will cover the role of both government and the private sector in uncovering adversarial supply chains, safeguarding technology and innovation, and exposing the criminal misuse of corporate structures and professional enablers.
