UK OSINT Community, a non-profit aiming to bolster OSINT capabilities nationwide, is hosting its next meet-up on Tuesday, 24 September 2024. Nearly 200 OSINT enthusiasts are expected to gather in Fulham, London, following the first day of the International Security Expo to socialise and network in an informal setting.
The non-profit’s inaugural ‘OSINT Unplugged’ event is designed to be more relaxed, unlike the ‘UK OSINT Seminar Series’, which focuses on formal workshops, training, and technology showcases. Attendees will receive a complimentary drink, and more importantly, have the opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals, exchange ideas, and build relationships.
The event on 24 September marks UK OSINT Community’s second event, following the resounding success of its first meet-up earlier this year. That event attracted over 100 professionals to learn and network, and hear from top leaders in the industry.

Membership is open to individuals and organisations, providing networking opportunities, training, and access to cutting-edge technologies.
