This was the first training activity of the year aimed at strengthening the culture of compliance and anticorruption at the corporate level.

The Superintendent of Corporate Areas of the FIEP System, Mr. Irineu Roveda gave a keynote addressed on the theme “Ethics in the Digital Era” to pinpoint the challenges and opportunities of the accelerated development of new technologies vis a vis compliance and integrity within companies. Mr. Marcos Turbay, from the Compliance School, shared his experiences and vision in investigative processes, bringing a theoretical and methodological perspective on the subject.

A key objective of this Network and the ongoing training seminars is to equip corporations on how to create their Integrity Programs and Risk Management systems.
