Stéphane Sakoschek is the founder & CEO of Global Inspections Group Inc., a technology company transforming the $250B Testing, Inspection & Certification (TIC) industry. With over 30 years of global experience — including senior leadership at Bureau Veritas — he has witnessed firsthand the hidden mechanisms that keep global trade moving, and the risks when oversight fails. His work spans government partnerships, digital marketplaces, and pioneering training initiatives through GIG Academy. Sakoschek has been an entrepreneur for 30 years; a polyglot, he's also been a public speaker, a talk show host, a published author, a pilot... in other words, he's a true and hyperactive polymath. As an author, Stéphane brings readers behind the curtain of an industry that affects every product, every shipment, and every consumer worldwide. His policy papers and books combine insider knowledge, practical guidance, and sharp analysis, offering both a hands-on guide for professionals (How to Make Money in Inspections) and a hard-hitting exposé of systemic failures (Unchecked). He writes with one goal: to inform, empower, and challenge the way we think about safety, quality, and accountability in the modern world.
