History
Governance, risk and compliance challenges are increasingly complex and rapidly evolving. It is more difficult to control all compliance requirements.
– Processes are becoming more time consuming.
– Operating costs are rising sharply.
– The risks of missing important steps in implementing compliance are increasing.
With this in mind, the founders of Smart Global Governance decided in 2019 to pool their know-how in new technologies (internet, big data, blockchain, artificial intelligence) acquired over the past 25 years in order to reimagine the collaboration between Humans and Technology, at the service of economic actors.
Today, Smart Global Governance publishes a platform for Integrated Risk Management that allows you to have more time to devote to essential subjects and really make a difference.
