Never the Same: Business After the War in Ukraine

Podcast

A 5-Part Podcast Series Hosted by Tom Fox Featuring Brandon Daniels

After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the world of business will never be the same again. Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco recently said that the world’s “geopolitical landscape is more challenging and complex than ever. The most prominent example is of course Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.” It is “nothing less than a fundamental challenge to international norms, sovereignty and the rule of law that underpins our society.” This is even more so in the current business climate. Over this five-part podcast series, Compliance Podcast Network founder Tom Fox and Exiger CEO Brandon Daniels consider how the business will never again be the same and how a confluence of events has changed business forever.
