About Bannerman

Letter from the CEO

Bannerman was founded on the premise that everyone deserves to be safe. The aim is to protect everyone, not just a lucky select few. In my life, I've experienced some very unsafe situations. I started Bannerman because I hope others don't have to go through what I went through.

Bannerman's approach to making people safe is to build technology which increases the transparency, control and connectedness of everyone in the security industry. Clients should know who is protecting them. Guards should be empowered to communicate and act meaningfully. Security companies should have perfect knowledge and capability to deploy their guard force effectively. We build software to empower everyone in this system and collectively make us all safer.

If this resonates with you, we'd love to hear from you!
