Michael Hershman, pioneer of modern investigation and accountability, joins Tesari as a Senior Advisor to advance the next generation of AI-native intelligence.
NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, September 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Tesari, a Transnational Risk Intelligence platform – the “FirstResort” for leaders in high-stakes environments, today announced that Michael Hershman has been appointed to its Advisory Board. As a Senior Advisor, Mr. Hershman will counsel Tesari on investigative methodology, source integrity, institutional trust, accountability, and the responsible application of AI to high-stakes public- and private-sector decisions.
Intelligence, corruption, international trade policy, and financial transparency professionals immediately recognize Michael Hershman’s name and the significant contributions he’s made to organizations he’s founded and advised: SIEMENS, INTERPOL, Transparency International, and The Fairfax Group. For over 50 years, Mr. Hershman has advised in multiple sectors, including corporate, government, military intelligence, congressional investigation, R&D, compliance, and international NGOs.
Mr. Hershman’s decision to join Tesari reflects more than the addition of a respected advisor. It represents a shared belief that while the principles of transparency, accountability, and sound investigation remain unchanged, the technology required to uphold them must evolve to meet a more complex global environment.
“The principles behind sound investigation and accountability have not changed, but the environment in which they must be applied has,” said Michael Hershman. “The facts needed to understand ownership, influence, financial relationships, and cross-border activity are increasingly dispersed across jurisdictions and sources. Tesari is building investigative technology designed to bring those facts together, preserve where they came from, and give experienced professionals a defensible record on which to exercise judgment. That combination is why I chose to become involved with Tesari.”
“Michael has spent more than 50 years helping institutions establish facts, test evidence, and make decisions they can defend,” said Elisar Nurmagambet, founder and CEO of Tesari. “We asked him to join Tesari because investigative technology should strengthen those disciplines, not dilute them. His experience speaks directly to fundamental questions of how to investigate within today’s complex context.”
Michael Hershman is joining an esteemed expert advisory team that supports Tesari’s long-term strategy of building a trusted global intelligence platform for serious public- and private-sector decision-making. Its technology was built by founding engineers from ClickUp and AI and cybersecurity leaders from NASA, IBM, and JPMorgan. Mr. Hershman joins an advisory network that includes senior executives and leaders from the U.S. Department of Justice, Homeland Security Investigations, the SEC, LexisNexis, Meta, Deutsche Bank, and the CIA, providing deep operational expertise and global industry relationships.
