Business leaders are at the forefront of the growing movement to combat human trafficking in the United States and around the world. Join peers from the business and tech community to discuss the pivotal role companies are playing in combatting this crime.

Presented by Sabre and United Way Worldwide

More than 20 million people around the world are victims of human trafficking.

They are men and women, boys and girls, foreign nationals and U.S. citizens exploited for sex or labor. Many are trapped at the bottom rungs of global supply chains, impacting agriculture, IT, extractives, hospitality & tourism, apparel, manufacturing, retail and other industries and sectors. Others are exploited in hotels, restaurants or nail salons, hidden in communities across the United States.

 Trafficking is the fastest growing criminal enterprise in the world with traffickers making more than $150 billion in profits every year.

q: Who should Attend?


A: Business and tech leaders who want to take ACTION to end human trafficking

Leaders, directors and managers in Executive, Procurement, Legal, CSR, Sourcing, Operations and Public Policy functions from a variety of industries will benefit from the presentations and resources provided to help your businesses eliminate sex and labor trafficking from your operations and in the communities you serve.


Learn from industry leaders that are utilizing technology and other assets to fight sex trafficking, as well as employing innovative partnerships to eliminate the risk and liability of trafficking in their supply chains.
