Partnership critical to Siemens’ water reuse initiatives

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — KETOS, a leading water intelligence innovator, and Siemens, a leading technology company, have partnered to provide water quality solutions and improve water management for water operators. The partnership focuses on the industrial and municipal water sectors and aims to provide comprehensive water quality management solutions.

Water usage and water quality are like the yin and yang of understanding water, our most vital resource, said Meena Sankaran, CEO of KETOS.

KETOS and Siemens have joined forces to equip water operators with integrated solutions that enhance water management and promote sustainability. This collaboration plays a pivotal role in Siemens’ water reuse initiatives and supports the company’s broader Siemens Xcelerator strategy. With the Siemens Water (SIWA) applications, specifically developed for the water and wastewater industry, operators can optimize energy efficiency, avoid water loss, reduce contamination of water bodies and improve predictive maintenance measures.

“On the industrial side, we see increased attention on water stewardship and implementing water-positive strategies and the link between efficient use of water and water quality management to enable water reuse and water recycling,” said Sebastian Guckelberger, Global Head of Portfolio & Business Development Water & Wastewater at Siemens. “With our partnership with KETOS we continue to empower water operators with integrated strategies for better water management and increased sustainability.”

KETOS is revolutionizing the water industry with a mission to make water accessible, affordable, safer and more sustainable. By automating traditional, manual, and costly water testing and monitoring processes, KETOS has developed a vertically integrated solution combining intelligent robotic hardware, bi-directional IoT connectivity, a robust AI-based interactive software platform, and seamless services for installation and ongoing uptime. Offering real-time testing for water efficiency—such as leak detection and usage tracking—and water quality—focusing on safety and composition—KETOS helps optimize water availability while ensuring safety and sustainability.

“Water usage and water quality are like the yin and yang of understanding water, our most vital resource. Together, they provide a holistic view of water availability, which is critical for sustainable management. With Siemens, we will be focusing on real-time actionable water quality insights that can integrate with the Siemens platform for users to have enhanced visibility, proactive risk mitigation and optimized savings across their operations with cohesive predictions from the power of blended data across their sources,” said Meena Sankaran, CEO of KETOS. “As more of our customers, especially those focused on ESG reporting and reduction of their carbon footprint, seek comprehensive data, high-caliber water metrics are becoming increasingly essential to complete the picture.”

LEAP Group Relaunches HumanView, a Growth Intelligence System Built to Explain Why Customers Behave the Way They Do

Reimagined from the ground up, HumanView pairs statistical modeling with expert analysts to turn millions of real-world customer signals into business decisions

LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LEAP Group today announced the relaunch of HumanView, its growth intelligence service. The new version has been rebuilt from the ground up and now has a dedicated home at leapgroupnetwork.com/humanview.

HumanView analyzes what customers say and do across social platforms, e-commerce sites, review platforms, search behavior and user-generated content, including signals from Reddit, TikTok, YouTube, Meta, Amazon and Walmart+ that general AI tools cannot always access. Because the data reflects unprompted, real-world behavior, it avoids the response bias built into surveys and focus groups.

The service works in three layers. HumanView captures signals at scale, decodes millions of records through validated statistical models such as regression, correlation and clustering, and then relies on experienced analysts to interpret the patterns. Clients receive clear, human-validated insights instead of another dashboard.

“Machines find the patterns. Humans find the point,” said Alan Gilleo, CEO at LEAP Group. “The first version of HumanView showed us how much customers reveal when nobody is asking them questions. This version is built to explain why they act the way they do, and to put those answers in front of everyone making decisions, from product to service to marketing.”

HumanView focuses on three areas:

Growth Intelligence: customer motivations and how people perceive a brand and its competitors

Market and Category Intelligence: product pain points, service friction, unmet needs and competitive gaps

Audience Intelligence: new segments, positioning opportunities and gaps in the market

Every model is designed and validated by data scientists and benchmarked before it informs a recommendation.

STEPHEN A. SMITH ADDRESSES WHITE HOUSE DINNER ATTENDANCE, REAFFIRMS COMMITMENT TO HBCUs AND PROTECTING CORPORATE INVESTMENT IN BLACK EDUCATION

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Stephen A. Smith, media mogul, New York Times bestselling author, and proud 1991 graduate of Winston-Salem State University, is addressing the public discussion surrounding his decision to attend a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, emphasizing his commitment to the long-term financial stability of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

For Smith, the decision was rooted in a commitment to institutions that have educated generations of Black leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, and public servants.

“I will always advocate for HBCUs and the students whose futures depend on them,” Smith said. “My reason for attending the White House dinner was to discuss the challenges these institutions face in securing long-term funding and to make the case that corporate America must continue to invest in them.”

Smith acknowledged federal support through the FUTURE Act while expressing concern that political tensions surrounding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) could discourage private companies from supporting HBCUs. He maintains that these institutions deserve sustained corporate partnerships, philanthropic contributions, and public investment.

“If we truly believe in free-market capitalism, businesses should be able to support educational institutions and charitable causes without fear of criticism or repercussions,” Smith said. “HBCUs have made extraordinary contributions to this country. They deserve sustained public and private investment.”

Ashley Christopher, Esq., Founder and CEO of the HBCU Week Foundation, recognized Smith’s advocacy and decision to engage with the administration.

“Stephen A. Smith has been a powerful advocate for HBCUs, using his platform and influence to shine a national spotlight on our institutions,” expressed Christopher, “His continued support of HBCU Week helps advance our mission of connecting students with life-changing educational opportunities, and we are proud to have him as our ambassador.”

Since Smith became an HBCU Week Ambassador in 2019, the initiative has facilitated more than 15,000 on-the-spot college acceptances and raised and awarded more than $150 million in scholarships, according to the HBCU Week Foundation.

As public discussion continues, Smith is emphasizing the importance of ensuring HBCUs have the resources and partnerships needed to educate future generations and expand opportunities for students.
