The Remedy Project

What The Remedy Project does

The Remedy Project is a Hong Kong-based advisory and research firm founded in 2020 by Archana Kotecha that specializes in labor and human rights issues in global supply chains. The firm serves multinational corporations with global supply chains, governments and public-sector bodies, civil society organizations, and industry associations, helping them navigate human rights due diligence obligations and design grievance and remediation frameworks aligned with emerging regulatory regimes including the UK Modern Slavery Act, Australia's Modern Slavery Act, the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), and the EU Forced Labour Regulation. Its team of six named professionals - including Founder & CEO Archana Kotecha, COO Carmel Laurino, Senior Counsel Laura Draper, Special Advisor David Zhang, and supporting associates - is described as seasoned human rights lawyers and experts with over 15 years of combined experience.

The company's offering is organized around three service pillars - Advisory & Thought Partnership (strategic guidance on human rights governance and regulatory compliance), Insights & Analysis (human rights impact assessments, sector/country risk reports, and policy research), and Capacity Building (training programs, policy drafting, and toolkit development on forced labour, child labour, ethical recruitment, and workplace harassment). Proprietary deliverables include co-developed operational guidelines with multilateral partners such as IOM, Bonsucro, the Responsible Jewellery Council, and Oxfam. The firm also maintains a substantial publications library covering forced labour, child labour, responsible purchasing, and HRDD, and was cited as a case study in the 2021 Financial Times Innovative Lawyers Awards: Europe. Following the January 2026 acquisition by Diginex Limited (NASDAQ: DGNX) for US$7.6 million, The Remedy Project's expertise is being integrated into Diginex's 'Risk-to-Remedy' solution, which combines worker-level evidence collection and remediation frameworks with the LUMEN and APPRISE supply chain technology platforms.

The business runs a professional services, sales-led go-to-market model: tailored advisory engagements are delivered directly to enterprise and institutional clients under engagement-based consulting arrangements, with pricing undisclosed publicly. The firm has reported operating across 20+ jurisdictions and 30+ partners including UN agencies, governments, NGOs, and industry associations, anchored by a Hong Kong headquarters. Founder Archana Kotecha was appointed Chief Impact Officer of Diginex in January 2026 to lead the integration of advisory expertise across the parent's compliance product set.
