David Briggs is a co-founder of GeoComply, a Vancouver company that verifies the physical location of people using online services. Anna Sainsbury is the other co-founder.
Briggs served as chief product and technology officer. In March 2025 Kip Levin took over as CEO, and Briggs shifted his focus to product and innovation.
GeoComply was founded in 2011 and moved to Vancouver in 2016. Its software became the compliance layer for US sports betting after states began legalizing it in 2018, because every bet has to come from inside a licensed state.
In March 2021 Blackstone Growth and Atairos made a minority investment, and the company described itself as a unicorn. Norwest Venture Partners and Arctos invested in January 2023, and GeoComply bought the Vancouver firm OneComply in May 2023.
