The Integrity Express 1st stop: Think Like a Thief
Three Stops. One Mission: Keeping Infrastructure Projects on Track.
What is the Integrity Express?
A virtual visit to Riga for infrastructure professionals who want to keep projects clean (and prevent them being derailed by Fraud, Corruption and wrong-doing.)
A three-part interactive online workshop journey where participants act as project defenders, practical problem-solvers and where needed «fraud detectives». Each session combines expert input, real project scenarios, group exercises, red-flag spotting, experience sharing and practical tools participants can use immediately.
Tiny warning: this event is not for passive listeners. Cameras on, brains on, sleeves rolled up.
1st stop: Think Like a Thief
Demystifying fraud and corruption and knowing where it strikes
The first workshop opens the “virtual gates to RIGA” by helping participants understand where fraud and corruption actually enter infrastructure and major projects. Instead of starting with rules and compliance theory, participants will learn how to think like those who exploit weak systems, unclear responsibilities, rushed decisions and poor controls.
The session introduces the “think-like-a-thief” method and guides participants through creating a first version of their own project fraud profile.
Participants will explore:
- what types of fraud and corruption most often affect infrastructure projects;
- why they happen and which project conditions make them more likely to happen;
- how fraud risks differ between procurement, design, construction, payments and project management;
- how to build a practical fraud profile for a real or typical project.
Take-away: Initial template for your customised Fraud Profile.

Learning experience on the platform
Content designed to make it easy to put theory into practice
Gain knowledge
Information, statistics, experience, research, these are all fundamental elements for a broad and objective understanding of the effective management of the construction process, the problems inherent in the sector and possible solutions.
Share your experience
Knowledge is built through interaction with others, which is the basis of our experience. Our experts provide valuable content on industry processes, but by sharing experiences, opinions and discussions with qualified construction experts from around the world, you not only gain a broader understanding, but also valuable contacts to develop your business.
Apply the knowledge gained
It is not enough to identify the problems or to propose theoretical solutions. To be valuable, the knowledge and experience gained must be put to good use in designing quality projects, making efficient use of available resources and contributing to positive change in the industry.
