Scot Cohen is the Founder, Chairman, and CEO of Wrap Technologies (NASDAQ: WRAP), a global public safety and defense technology company focused on non-lethal response systems and training used by law enforcement agencies in more than 60 countries. He is a Wall Street–trained entrepreneur with over 30 years of experience in capital markets, hedge fund management, and structured finance.
