In this week’s issue of Business Weekly, Dave Excell, founder and CTO at Featurespace, talks about how the company leverages its U.K. roots to innovate the fight against payments fraud in the U.S.
The U.K. has an illustrious track record of introducing revolutionary innovations, including the Atlas (heralded as the world’s first supercomputer), the first portable computer, the first laptop (the Osborne 1 and the Grid Compass, respectively) and even the World Wide Web.
Dave Excell explains how Featurespace – also born out of the U.K. – leverages its rich fraud detection and prevention experience to help organizations in the Americas, and also how this supports the company’s mission to risk score every transaction on the planet.
