Working with a company with the stature and reach of Ridge Global will greatly accelerate the exposure of our ground-breaking technology to key potential users. As the nation’s first Secretary of Homeland Security, Governor Ridge has a unique understanding of the challenges facing those charged with the safety of the American public. We are proud of the confidence he has shown in our technology.”

“As we have seen in the Western world, our adversaries will continue to pursue so-called ‘soft targets’ such as transportation hubs, sporting venues, restaurants and office buildings. Almost by definition, democracies are soft targets. Patriot One has developed powerful technologies to mitigate these ongoing challenges while at the same time being less obtrusive to event attendees. Ridge Global is proud to work with Martin and his team to bring these innovations to the marketplace,” said Gov. Ridge, Chairman of Ridge Global.
