Graydon, leading provider of business data, insights, analytics and solutions, announced today that it has signed a corporate partnership with worldwide knowledge sharing platform Forums International. The focus of the partnership will be to host and produce quarterly forums focussed on fraud prevention, credit management and risk.
– The Fraud Prevention Network (FPN.) This is a new forum focused on those who have responsibility for combatting fraud across a range of industries.
– IT Distributors & Resellers Credit Forum (DRF.) Graydon and Forums have recommitted to their partnership on this long established and popular forum.
– International Telecoms Risk Forum (ITRF.) Graydon are pleased to return to this forum after an absence of a few years and look forward to playing an active role. Each of these are designed to bring together leading names within different industry groups and provide intelligence and practical tools to a network of like-minded professionals.
Attendees can expect open discussions, presentations from industry experts and specialised workshops. Membership of the forum will also provide access to secure members’ communication channels.
The schedule of dates for the quarterly forums will be released shortly. Attendance to the first FPN is complimentary and is an opportunity for prospective companies to gauge the benefits before making a commitment to join.
Simon Blackwell, Graydon UK’s managing director: “Graydon have a long-standing relationship with Forums International, going back many years through the very well established IT sector meetings, so it’s great that we are able to extend this relationship further by supporting the telecommunication forum and create a new network focused entirely on reducing commercial fraud and financial crime.
Both organisations are committed to facilitating the sharing of relevant and valuable insights and intelligence within communities whether it be industry sectors or functions. The overriding aim is to help organisations make more informed credit risk decisions and support them in the ongoing fight against commercial fraud and financial crime.”
Forums International Ltd, Laurie Beagle FCICM, managing director: “We have worked together with Graydon for many years on the IT Distributors Forum (DRF) so we are very pleased to extend that relationship to include both the Telecoms Forum (ITRF) and the new Fraud Prevention Network (FPN) being launched on the 16th May.
We both share the same principles and objectives and know that the two teams will complement each other in the delivery of forums that provide quality benefits and true value to its members”.
