Sumsub will make a direct investment — funding academic research, scholarships, and open innovation — to accelerate a shared mission in AI safety and global talent development. Further, students will be placed within Sumsub's product and technical teams. These experiences will give emerging AI experts the chance to work on advanced anti-fraud tools, gaining practical skills and insight into real-world challenges in identity verification and digital security. Together, they aim to produce academic research and articles based on the collaboration, as well as open-source models shared publicly, to equip new generations to address emerging AI-powered threats in an increasingly digital world.
