How to safeguard products, consumers & ROI

Your brand image is one of your company’s greatest assets. How well is it protected? Every day, criminals find new ways to profit by counterfeiting and diverting products. Your brand value is at risk, and so are your consumers and your bottom line.

Don’t miss this two-part seminar with our guest Dr. Jeremy Wilson, Professor, MSU, School of Criminal Justice. Learn about a proven, holistic and proactive approach to brand protection—built on extensive field research with brands across many industries.
