Patriot One Detection Ltd. to Attend International Association of Chiefs of Police Event in San Diego

T.XTRA

VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - Oct 11, 2016) - Patriot One Technologies Inc., (TSX VENTURE: PAT) (the "Company") announces that Patriot One Detection Ltd. ("Patriot"), developers of an innovative covert concealed weapons detection system, will be presenting at the International Association of Chiefs of Police ("IACP") Conference in San Diego on October 15, 2016. Further to the Company's news releases of August 12, 2016 and October 3, 2016 (the "Prior Announcements"), the Company has executed a definitive securities exchange agreement with Patriot and each security holder of Patriot, pursuant to which it will acquire 100% of the outstanding securities of Patriot in exchange for securities of the Company on a 1:1 basis (the "Transaction"). Please refer to the Prior Announcements for more details regarding the Transaction.

Launch Event with Governor Tom Ridge

Patriot eagerly anticipates welcoming Tom Ridge, First Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and former Governor of Pennsylvania as keynote speaker at an invitation-only hosted event to formally introduce its NForce CMR1000 product during the IACP Conference. Limited space is available and Patriot requires certain criteria for attendance. To find out if you qualify and would like to attend this exciting event, registered attendees of IACP are invited to call +1 (800) 753-0031 as soon as possible to determine if registration slots are still available.

Innovative Covert Concealed Weapons Detection System in Prep for Commercialization

Patriot is at an advanced development stage of its NForce covert concealed weapons system, with over five years of academic research and successful testing complete. Early stage trial devices are currently advancing to prototypes slated for pilot use in a number of Canadian and US facilities by year end. Patriot has further entered into dialogue with certain law enforcement partners in order to collect weapons signature data for use in the Company's rapidly growing proprietary NForce weapons detection library.

Current competitive technologies are large, expensive and require operators and/or personal compliance to screen for threats. As has been proven numerous times recently, committed active shooters simply identify soft targets or otherwise circumvent static scanning equipment altogether. Patriot is developing technologies to be deployed covertly to screen without a subject's individual awareness, even while the subject is moving.

Patriot's goal is to Deter, Detect and Defend against active threats to citizens who rely on an ability to visit schools, offices, shopping centers, transit hubs and other facilities without fear of random acts of senseless violence occurring during their daily activities.

Patriot CEO, Mr. Martin Cronin states, "We have developed our NForce CMR1000 covert concealed weapons detection system as a robust and cutting edge tool for law enforcement, professional security experts and business owners alike, as a means to directly address a primary threat to public safety today. In recent times there have been many instances of 'disruptive technologies,' and we believe NForce is truly disruptive in many ways." 

About the IACP

The International Association of Chiefs of Police was founded in 1893 in Chicago, Illinois. Originally intended to serve as a means to apprehend and return criminals who had fled agency jurisdictions in which they were wanted, the association has grown to serve as one of the largest police chiefs organizations in the world. Throughout those past 100-plus years, the IACP has been launching historically acclaimed programs, conducting ground-breaking research and providing exemplary programs and services to its membership across the globe. Currently, the IACP has over 20,000 members and aims to continue to serve as the voice for police chiefs into the 21st century.
