    • Marketing

Nic McKinley, founder and CEO of the nonprofit intelligence group DeliverFund and former CIA Special Agent, recently joined Tiffany Xingyu Wang to discuss the modern explosion in human trafficking and how DeliverFund leverages cutting-edge technology to fight it across private companies’ digital platforms. Traffickers are leveraging such platforms and smartphone technology to expand their illicit activities, which - beyond the tragic human cost - can also severely damage the reputation of the platforms that unwittingly hosted such activity. By rooting out such criminals, platforms can collectively deny traffickers a territory in which to operate.
