3SI / Wren Acquires VMS Developer Surveill
Quietly, a new sizeable physical security company, with significant funding and now the leadership of the former Global President of Stanley Security, is forming.
Last June, 3SI and Wren were combined, and then, in October, Matt Kushner joined as CEO of the company.
Now, 3SI / Wren is acquiring VMS developer Surveill (for background, see Former Genetec Integrator Turns VMS Developer, Edge360 / Surveill).
We spoke with Kushner to better understand why they are doing the deal and what attracted him to 3SI / Wren.
