As of November/December 2020
Not all details have been verified, although items labeled 1, 2, and 3 are correct.
Various Dominion Entities
Smartmatic and Dominion are joined with each other

A) Management Join Points

SGO/Smartmatic Tides/Open Society


Malloch-Brown chairman director
Nigel Knowles director vice-chairman

Tides/Open Society shares office space with Dominion

Dominion licenses technology to SGO/Smartmatic

SGO/Smartmatic Board members are also Tides/OpenSociety Board members

Tides/Open Society shares office space with Dominion etc

B) Technology Join Points - The voting machine industry is incestuous. Companies buy and sell products to each other, complex licenseing of products to each other, companies are bought and sold, products rebranded, personel shuffled between companies, lawsuits,
DOJ actions…
