Protect Life. Obsolete the bullet. Global tech company dedicated to capturing truth with connected cameras & devices.
About us
Our story began in September of 1993 when TASER International was founded by CEO Rick Smith with his brother Tom Smith. They consulted with Jack Cover, former NASA scientist and inventor of the original TASER® conducted energy weapons of the 1970s. Rick Smith was inspired to found the company after losing two high school football teammates who were shot and killed in a road rage incident. This experience led him to seek new technologies that would enable people to protect themselves without deploying lethal force in hopes of creating a bullet-less world. Today, Axon represents the entire network of devices, applications and people that is revolutionizing public safety around the world. Our mission is to protect life. We’re building the world’s largest and most trusted suite of public safety solutions. If you are seeking a career with purpose, we invite you to join us. Learn more at: axon.com/careers This is Our Moonshot Gun-related deaths between police and the public have risen steadily for at least the past six years. In 2021 in the U.S., 1,118 people — 1,054 civilians and 64 officers — lost their lives in gun-related incidents between police and the public, according to leading data sources. In response, Axon is rallying partners around a “moonshot” goal to cut gun-related deaths between police and the public by 50% by 2033.

Every day, I’m reminded that the future of public safety isn't just about technology—it's about the people. The brave individuals who step into dangerous situations, driven by a commitment to protect others, are the ones who make the greatest impact. The 𝗔𝘅𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 hold a special place in my heart. Since 2014, we've had the honor of celebrating those who embody courage, innovation and leadership in the field of public safety. We live in a time where we can save more lives by rethinking how we respond to crises. This year, the 𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗘 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 will again honor first responders who have gone above and beyond, proving that bravery isn’t always about force. The 𝗝𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗖𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗳 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗺 shines a light on those who used a TASER to save a life without taking one—embodying the very vision of less-lethal force. And the 𝗩𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱, inspired by Dr. Richard Carmona, honors the rare leaders who guide us toward a safer future, not through orders but through action. These awards reflect what I believe in: a world where safety and humanity coexist, where courage isn’t measured by violence but by vision. 📎 To learn more about these awards and how you can nominate someone, visit our latest blog post: https://lnkd.in/gSpBVwkYThank you to all of the brave men and women who work tirelessly to keep our communities safe.

We’re honored to have been a part of this year’s Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBC) Week in Washington D.C., which brings together leaders, policymakers and stakeholders to address vital issues within the African American community.

“Suicide should be pursued as relentlessly as any other killer: together, publicly and with unabated courage.” – Karen Solomon, Co-Founder & President of First H.E.L.PSharonda Calderon, a member of First H.E.L.P., opens up in this no-cost Axon Aid Resource about her husband’s struggle with PTSD and loss to suicide in 2018. Unfortunately, stories like Sharonda’s are becoming more common, as ‘more police officers die by their own hand than are killed in the line of duty’ (NIH). National #LawEnforcementSuicideAwareness Day is not only about honoring & sharing the stories of officers lost to suicide, but it’s also about raising awareness and reminding officers that they are not alone; help is available. If you or someone you know is struggling, call the 988 lifeline.
