Scott Annan's entrepreneurial journey was ignited not on Wall Street, where his career began, but within his grandfather's office in Manhattan. He came from a long line of safe makers. A need for an affordable personal safe during his tenure at Colgate University transformed into a revolutionary product and marked the start of his unique venture that had deep roots.
His ingenuity lead to co-founding Mycube Safe and revolutionizing the way people secured their personal items. His innovation lead to safes operable via Wi-Fi, cellular networks, and Bluetooth, along with biometrics.
