5 October 2026 | 8 Northumberland Avenue, London | 10:00 to 17:00

Evening Social: 17:00 to 22:00

On 5 October 2026, the Global OSINT Conference will take place at 8 Northumberland Avenue, delivered in partnership with the Police Digital Service.

The event brings together professionals from policing, defence, journalism, intelligence, academia, and the private sector for a full day dedicated exclusively to open-source intelligence.

Tickets are £35.

A Dedicated Forum for OSINT

Open-source intelligence is now central to modern investigations.

Across law enforcement, national security, financial crime, investigative reporting, and corporate risk, OSINT has become a core operational capability. Yet practitioners are often dispersed across broader cyber, policing, or security events.

The Global OSINT Conference provides a single, professional forum focused entirely on the discipline.

Its objectives are clear:

• Strengthen practical OSINT capability through real-world methods and case studies
• Connect public and private sector practitioners
• Advance ethical, legal, and responsible standards
• Position London as a global hub for open-source intelligence

Conference Structure

The conference will feature a main stage examining how OSINT is shaping modern intelligence and investigations, alongside additional stages delivering in-depth masterclasses focused on applied tradecraft.

Themes include:

• Intelligence-led disruption of organised crime
• The integration of OSINT into defence and national security
• Digital transformation across policing
• Investigative journalism in the age of open data
• Online harms and exploitation networks
• Building resilient OSINT capability for future threats

This is a conference built around OSINT as a professional discipline in its own right.

Built by the Community

The event has grown out of the UK OSINT Community, a practitioner-led network formed to unite professionals who rely on open-source intelligence.

As OSINT has expanded across sectors, the need for a focused annual conference has become evident. London is already a global centre for private intelligence, investigative journalism, and financial crime expertise. Hosting a dedicated OSINT conference reflects that reality.

Revenue is reinvested into community initiatives, capability development, and professional standards.
