AlwaysOn named Amber Road amongst its Top 100 Private Companies at its Mid-Atlantic Venture Summit on Tuesday, aiming to identify emerging companies in the region that are making a huge impact on what it calls the “Global Silicon Valley.”

These venture-based leaders, they concluded, prove that innovation and creativity can come from anywhere as they challenge the legacy institutions and take advantage of an increasingly fast-paced, connected world.

During Deemed Export Compliance 101, we will cover topics ranging from restricted party screening to export control management…from a university perspective.
