Acoem Appoints Edwin Brennen to Lead North American Gunshot Detection Channel Strategy
Acoem today announced the appointment of Edwin (Ed) Brennen as Business Development Manager for its ATD (Acoustic Threat Detection) team. With more than 35 years of experience across public sector technology and electronic security, Brennen will lead Acoem’s channel partner development efforts in North America.
In his new role, Brennen will focus on building and supporting a strong ecosystem of integrators, distributors, and service providers to expand access to Acoem’s ATD solution, an advanced gunshot detection system that combines decades of military-grade acoustic research with real-time camera integration and scalable deployment options.
Brennen joins Acoem with many years of experience selling and supporting security technology solutions to state, local, and education (SLED) agencies. He has worked closely with courts, jails, and law enforcement agencies across multiple states, providing consultative guidance and long-term support.
In addition, he brings deep expertise in the electronic security industry, having held senior roles at ADT and Honeywell. His hands-on experience spans the entire integration lifecycle, from alarm installation and service to regional leadership roles in sales and channel operations.
“Ed brings a rare combination of technical know-how and real-world sales leadership that will be instrumental as we expand our partner network,” said Timothy English, Managing Director of Security Solutions at Acoem. “Gunshot detection is becoming an essential layer in modern security strategies. Ed’s ability to engage with integrators and help them see the opportunity in this space will be a key driver of our growth in North America.”
“I’m excited to join a company with such a unique and proven approach to gunshot detection,” said Brennen. “Acoem’s ATD-300 stands apart with its ability to slew PTZ cameras to the source of a gunshot in real time, all from a single sensor. This delivers actionable intelligence and provides flexible deployment options, including portable and covert installations. My goal is to help the right partners recognize the value of this technology and introduce it into markets where it can truly make a difference.”
The appointment comes ahead of Acoem’s participation at the GSX 2025 trade show, where Brennen will meet with new and prospective partners.
