EU Integrity & Risk Network Drinks

Tackling Fraud, Waste & Abuse in the EU?

Join colleagues from the European Commission, Parliament, civil society and industry for the inaugural gathering of the European Risk & Integrity Community — a new informal network for professionals fighting fraud, corruption and money laundering across Europe.

This summer meet-up will feature:

• Opening remarks by MEP Daniel Freund – Member of the CONT Committee & Co-Chair of the Anti-Corruption Intergroup
• On-stage interview with MEP Raquel Garcia Hermida on the EU’s evolving anti-fraud and integrity agenda
• Special briefing by Stephan Goddé (SAS Institute) on the just-released Global Anti-Fraud Report — with insights directly relevant to the EU public sector

We’ll end with drinks and dialogue — your chance to connect off-record with peers working on audit, compliance, and integrity in and around the EU institutions.

Whether you're tracking tenders, detecting red flags, or designing safeguards — this gathering is for you.

We look forward to seeing you there!
