(“Bond”)\n(NASDAQ: OBAI), the creator of the world’s first AI-powered Preventative\nPersonal Security platform adopted by leading multinational companies, today\nreported strong engagement during its recent participation in Global Security\nExchange (GSX) 2026, held September 14–16 in Atlanta. GSX, organized by ASIS\nInternational, is one of the world’s premier gatherings of security\nprofessionals, corporate security leaders and innovators.\n\nGSX represented Bond’s first major awareness and lead generation marketing\ncampaign in the past 5 years, as well as the first major security industry\nexhibition following the expansion of its growth initiatives and listing on\nNasdaq in February 2026. It represents a shift from narrowly-focused marketing\nefforts oriented towards early adopters to casting a much wider market\nawareness net targeting the early majority of the market. During the multi-day\nevent, Bond’s booth received visitors from over 1,000 corporations and\ngovernment agencies, many of whom expressed interest in Bond for their\nemployees or customers, including Amazon, Bank of America, Google, Airbnb,\nADP, the US Postal Service, and more. Bond’s exhibit included an\napproximately 1,500-square-foot booth featuring a theater in which the Company\ndelivered live demonstrations of its AI-powered Preventative Personal Security\nplatform, giving security leaders a firsthand look at how Bond extends\npersonal security beyond traditional alert-based solutions by addressing\nsituations before they escalate into emergencies.\n\nBond’s exhibit focused on expressing the service’s great unique value\nincluding the Preventative Personal Security attributes of the solution that\nhave enabled Bond to be certified as a sole supplier by numerous government\nagencies, as well as the EY ROI report about Bond that concludes Bond actually\nsaves between $180 and $280 per employee per year for corporations who deploy\nthe service by reducing both the number and severity of security incidents,\nwhich in turn reduces both the associated direct and indirect costs of those\nincidents, including but not limited to medical and insurance costs, lost days\nof work, costs related to employee churn, such as hiring and training\nreplacements, and legal and reputational costs. \n\n“GSX provided an important opportunity to demonstrate Bond’s platform\ndirectly to many of the decision-makers responsible for protecting large\nemployee and public populations,” said Doron Kempel, Founder and CEO of\nBond. “More than a thousand security professionals came to our booth.\nInflection points in the adoption of a new category begin exactly this way.\nYou cast a wide net, you meet a large number of decision-makers in a short\nperiod of time, you show them independent economic validation like our EY\nresearch, and a meaningful share of those conversations move forward.”\n\n“Our increased investment in growth is designed to not just increase the top\nof the funnel, but also to change three things at once: the share of meetings\nthat convert to customers, the length of the sales cycle, and the size of each\ndeal. GSX gave us evidence on all three in a single week,” Kempel continued.\n“More than 50 organizations of 10,000 people or more expressed interest in\nBond at this one conference alone. Revolutions require new technologies and\nnew operating models, but they also require leaders who are willing to be\nearly adopters, and we met many of them in Atlanta. We expect the\nopportunities generated at GSX to convert over the next 6 to 12 months in line\nwith our enterprise and government sales cycles, and we intend to continue\ninvesting in the activities that put Bond in front of the people who make\nthese decisions.”\n\nThe Company also co-sponsored, alongside Amazon, the Women in Security and\nNextGen Awards, recognizing established and emerging leaders who are helping\nshape the future of the security profession.\n\nAbout Bond\n\nBond is an international company headquartered in New York City — with\ncommand centers around the world — that is redefining personal security\nthrough its AI-powered Preventative Personal Security platform.
