Audere International

What Audere International does

Audere International is a London-headquartered specialist business intelligence and investigations firm operating as a subsidiary of the Audere Group. Founded in 2014 with a disclosed headcount of 1-10, the company maintains an international office network spanning Mumbai, Kyiv, Dubai, Singapore, Tokyo, New York, and Lagos to serve enterprise clients, law firms, institutional investors, and financial institutions requiring intelligence in complex and opaque commercial environments. Its service portfolio comprises Enhanced Due Diligence (delivered in three tiers of depth), Market Entry & Stakeholder Mapping, Litigation Support, Complex Investigations, and Supply Chain Risk & Resilience, with disclosed engagements referencing clients such as Cairn Energy PLC, a FTSE 100 UK engineering company, international airlines, a Nordic state-owned telecoms firm, a global cement manufacturer, and high-net-worth individuals.

The firm's core methodology combines a Human Intelligence (HUMINT) network cultivated over more than two decades — drawing on sources in offshore finance, government, security services, and industry — with Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) analysis that includes Deep & Dark Web Monitoring. Deliverables are bespoke intelligence reports grounded in triangulated, cross-examined evidence; documented outcomes include a year-long multi-jurisdictional investigation that mapped over 20 linked international entities and a 72-hour time-sensitive inquiry that influenced an IP litigation strategy. Revenue is generated through project-based engagements and multi-year retainer arrangements at undisclosed, quote-based pricing, and the firm holds external validations including ICoCA certification, Cyber Essentials, MSS Global Essentials, the UK Armed Forces Covenant Gold Award, and a Chambers and Partners 2026 Crisis and Risk Management ranking.

The company operates within the Audere Group alongside Audere Securus, an intelligence-led security services affiliate, allowing cross-sell into protective security for clients in contested environments. No external funding rounds, revenue figures, or institutional investors are disclosed in publicly available material.
