Evolv Express® Recognized as Leading Product Within the Pedestrian Security Entrances Category

Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV), the global leader in weapons detection security screening, has been named New Product of the Year in the Pedestrian Security Entrances category by Security Today.

Each year, The Security Today New Product of the Year Award honors the outstanding product development achievements of security equipment manufacturers whose products are considered to be particularly noteworthy in their ability to improve security.

“We are thrilled to be amongst these innovative companies who are dedicated to creating a safer world,” said Peter George, CEO of Evolv Technology. “For decades, venues have used 20th century technology to detect 21^st century threats. In a world where experience matters greatly, visitors have had to wait in long lines, remove everything from their pockets and bags and walk through a system one-by-one. That is simply no longer acceptable or secure. With Evolv Express, cutting-edge technology and artificial intelligence helps provide the highest levels of weapons detection while also improving the visitor experience.”

Evolv Express is recognized alongside 42 winners in categories across the security spectrum. For more information on the New Product of the Year award winners, visit www.securitytoday.com.
