TORONTO,
ON – April 4, 2017 – (Investorideas.com Newswire) Patriot One Technologies Inc., (TSX.V:
PAT) (OTCQB:
PTOTF) (FRANKFURT: 0PL) (“Patriot One” or the “Company”), developer
of a revolutionary concealed weapons detection system, proudly announced today
the formal appointment of Tom Ridge to its Advisory Board. Gov. Ridge was the first
U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security and 43rd Governor of
Pennsylvania. Today he is the founding partner and Chairman of Ridge Global, a
risk management and cybersecurity firm in Washington.
Martin Cronin, CEO and Director of
Patriot One Technologies Inc., notes “This is a very proud day for our entire
team at Patriot One Technologies. Gov. Ridge’s remarkable career has provided
him with an extraordinary perspective into the many complex issues in the
security industry today. His strategic insight and access throughout the sector
are an immense asset to our efforts both at home and abroad. Without reserve, I
am confident in stating that today’s appointment is a major milestone in our
corporate growth, strategic planning ability, and depth of leadership. On
behalf of our entire team I wish to welcome Gov. Ridge onboard, and personally
look forward to working together to make Patriot One the leader in weapons
detection technology around the globe.”
In related news,
Governor Ridge will be joining Patriot One’s sponsored vendor
solution showcase panel session at the ISC West Conference in Las Vegas this
week (Wednesday April 5th at 12:30PM Sands #101 & 102). The
panel of security experts will discuss the steps they are taking to deter,
detect and defend against today’s threats of terrorism and active shooter
violence. To find out more, please visit the ISC West website at: http://www.iscwest.com/Education/Vendor-Solutions/#.
Gov. Ridge was instrumental as a
thought leader and keynote speaker at Patriot One’s launch at the International
Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) conference in San Diego in October of
2016. During that event, Gov. Ridge spoke passionately on the need for new
technology solutions in the security sector, stating the need for a practical
combination of technology innovation and smart practices to overcome the growing
threat to personal security worldwide. A video of his comments from the event can be viewed here.
As a direct result of the previously announced engagement of Ridge Global as a strategic advisory
resource, Governor Ridge further determined to more closely and personally
assist in the development efforts of Patriot One, which ultimately led to
today’s announcement.
Following the tragic events of
September 11th, 2001, Tom Ridge became the first Assistant to the President for
Homeland Security and, on January 24, 2003, became the first Secretary of the
U.S. Department of Homeland Security. During his DHS tenure, Secretary Ridge
worked with more than 180,000 employees from a combined 22 agencies to create
an agency that facilitated the flow of people and goods, instituted layered
security at air, land and seaports, developed a unified national response and
recovery plan, protected critical infrastructure, integrated new technology and
improved information sharing worldwide. Tom Ridge served as Secretary of this
historic and critical endeavor until February 1, 2005. Before the events of
September 11th, Tom Ridge was twice elected Governor of Pennsylvania. For more information,
