Tim Butchart is the Chief Executive Officer of OpenCorporates, the world’s largest open database of legal entities

With decades of experience leading global Data companies, Tim is now leading the transition of the global company data market from opaque, proprietary directories to deterministic, primary-source entity infrastructure.

Recognizing that the era of "our vendor said so" is no longer a legal defense, Tim leads OpenCorporates in delivering the definitive "Evidence Layer" for the modern global economy.

Under his leadership, OpenCorporates provides the foundational entity resolution, data provenance, and change-history intelligence that banks, supply chain leaders, and RegTech platforms rely on.

At Money 20/20, Tim brings critical insights into how financial institutions can eliminate the "data tax" of proprietary identifiers, ground enterprise AI without hallucination, and unmask hidden financial crime risks using auditable, multi-jurisdictional data
