Understanding Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence
Event Navigation
Presented in Partnership with the Tennessee APEX Accelerator
In the realm of business, numerous individuals, ranging from investors and employees to customers, wield the power to impact your enterprise. While these relationships often prove beneficial, there are instances where external influences may introduce heightened risks to your company.
This workshop is specifically designed to delve into the intricacies of Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI). Various avenues can expose a company to FOCI, and the repercussions can be extensive. From hindering your capacity to secure government contracts to potential losses of key personnel, FOCI can also serve as a conduit for undesired technology transfer.
The session aims to provide a foundational understanding of FOCI and offers insights into how to initiate the mitigation of associated risks.
