Evolv Technology, a leader in weapons detection for security screening, has named Brian Norris as vice president of investor relations.
Evolv Technology listed on Nasdaq in July 2021 after completing a $1.7 bn total equity business transaction with NewHold Investment Corp, a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company.
In this newly created position, Norris is responsible for leading the company’s global investor relations program and its relationships with the investment community.
‘I am thrilled to be joining Evolv as it recently completed its public offering on Nasdaq and enters its next phase of growth,’ says Norris in a statement.
He joins from Lytx, a leading provider of video safety solutions for fleet operators, where he served as vice president of finance. Prior to Lytx, he held leading finance and investor relations roles at 128 Technology, Fleetmatics Group, Acme Packet and MatrixOne.
‘Brian brings a proven 20-year track record in leading finance-driven investor relations programs for highly disruptive, category-leading technology companies,’ says Peter Faubert, CFO of Evolv Technology, in a press release.
‘His deep understanding of the capital markets and investor relations as well as his broad financial and operating experience will bring great value to Evolv and enhance our ability to effectively communicate with the investment community. We are delighted to welcome him to the Evolv team.’
