Global risk consultancy Control Risks has taken a 10% stake in Geospark Analytics, a developer of applied artificial intelligence solutions for risk and threat monitoring.

“Since inception we have always strived to simplify the chaos of precisely oriented data with an exquisite user experience,” said Geospark Analytics Founder and Executive Chairman Omar Balkissoon. “It’s quite an exciting time to see this all come together, man and machine.”

This partnership accelerates the integration of the two companies’ technologies and methodologies, bringing human and AI collaborative intelligence to global risk and threat analysis.

“Together, we instinctively understand the power of human verification of emerging indicators, warnings, and stability forecasts that are amplified and enhanced by expert risk consultants with context and advice,” said Control Risks CEO Nick Allan. “Simply put, by investing in Geospark Analytics, we are ready to revolutionize risk monitoring and forecasting and safeguard our clients’ future.”
