Hiperos, an Opus Global company and the leading provider of third-party management software, today announced that it will host an exclusive event on how the technology industry is transforming its approach to assessing and managing third parties for corruption and risk.
At the Tuesday, June 23, event major brands and leaders will collaborate to reduce the cost, risks, inefficiencies and channel friction that currently exists. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear directly from peers on how they are tackling the costs, complexity and regulatory burdens of third-party, anti-corruption due diligence and management.

"Together with Hiperos, we're helping address the major challenges that IT companies, solution providers and distributors collectively face on this front," GTDC CEO Curran said. "The rapidly changing regulatory environment and increased enforcement actions demand greater vigilance and controls everywhere technology goes. We're taking a proactive approach with industry leaders to advance compliance measures on a global basis."
Discussion topics will include the requirements, pitfalls and value of launching anti-bribery/anti-corruption risk assessment, with real-life examples, case studies, feedback and advice as well as why collaborating and working together drives costs down and protection up.
