Updated Agenda: UANI's Iran Risk Summit on Monday, September 19

New York, NY - United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) has released an updated agenda for its 2016 Iran Risk Summit, a public event featuring a distinguished lineup of current and former foreign leaders, lawmakers, and Iran experts to be held on September 19 at the Roosevelt Hotel in New York, on the sidelines of the opening of the United Nations General Assembly.

The day-long public event of interviews and discussions will examine the political and economic environment since the signing of the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. Comprised of former diplomats and lawmakers, UANI is spearheading a global education campaign focused on the risks of doing business with Iran, warning hundreds of international companies that may be contemplating Tehran as a new investment opportunity.
