Vetter Senior Living scales purpose and connection for residents with LifeLoop Wellness Navigator

Expanded technology partnership elevates social wellness as a core pillar of resident well-being across 28 communities through data-driven insights and intervention

DENVER, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LifeLoop, the leading proactive engagement and whole-person wellness platform for senior living, today announced that Vetter Senior Living (Vetter) has expanded its partnership with the portfolio-wide launch of the Wellness Navigator, LifeLoop’s innovative new solution that provides a research-based framework to operationalize resident social wellness at scale. The solution is now available across 28 Vetter communities in Nebraska, Missouri, and Wyoming.

Senior living providers have long recognized the critical role life enrichment professionals play in resident quality of life, yet the impact of that work has historically been difficult to quantify. This lack of standardized measurement has limited the industry’s ability to evaluate and deliver social wellness with the same rigor applied to clinical and physical dimensions of resident health. Vetter’s implementation of the LifeLoop Wellness Navigator introduces a consistent method to translate resident engagement data into actionable insights, reflecting the organization’s broader strategy to elevate life enrichment as a core pillar of resident well-being.

“Cultivating purpose and connection is central to who we are and the experiences we create for our residents at Vetter Senior Living,” said Mark Iverson, chief operating officer at Vetter Senior Living. “LifeLoop’s Wellness Navigator enables us to now operationalize that belief across every community—it’s transformative for our organization, our community teams, and our residents. Our partnership with LifeLoop is helping us advance a model of senior living in which social wellness is intentionally supported as an essential element of overall resident health.”

Vetter has launched the Wellness Navigator portfolio-wide to standardize how communities measure and improve social well-being. The solution gives community staff greater visibility into residents at risk of loneliness or disengagement, empowering life enrichment professionals to intervene with personalized support before isolation impacts resident health and well-being. Using the solution’s wellness intelligence system—including the Social Engagement Index (SEI) and UCLA 3 Loneliness Scale as validated measurement frameworks—staff can confidently and consistently evaluate engagement trends over time, at both the resident and community levels.

“The potential impact of the Wellness Navigator for our life enrichment teams and residents cannot be overstated. In my 15 years in this field, we have never had an industry-standard framework to quantify how life enrichment positively impacts resident wellness,” said Courtney Schmitz, director of purposeful living at Vetter Senior Living. “With LifeLoop, we’re moving beyond program planning and activity tracking into data-driven, whole-person wellness.”

Vetter has leveraged LifeLoop solutions for resident engagement, community operations, and family connections for over 15 years. This expansion builds on Vetter’s longstanding commitment to creating community experiences that are centered in dignity and purpose for all residents.

“Vetter is demonstrating what it looks like to treat life enrichment as an essential component of resident well-being,” said Rob Fisher, chief executive officer at LifeLoop. “As senior living continues to evolve, recognizing that purpose and connection matter is important, but having the infrastructure to seamlessly understand, support, and improve them is paramount. Vetter is one of the organizations leading that shift, and we’re proud to partner with them to put that vision into practice for the staff, residents, and families they care for.”

Beauty platform founded by Nyakio Grieco marks first international footprint with leading e-commerce retailer ahead of Q4 2026 launch

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Thirteen Lune, the leading platform designed to inspire global beauty discovery, today announced its official global expansion through a strategic partnership with Takealot, South Africa’s largest online retailer and leading e-commerce ecosystem. The partnership marks Thirteen Lune’s international debut, bringing a curated portfolio of beauty brands directly to consumers across South Africa later this year.

The expansion will officially go live on Takealot in Q4 2026, anchoring a broader multi-stage rollout that will include localized activations, interactive retail pop-ups, and long-term brand building across the region.

The expansion marks a major operational milestone for Thirteen Lune and its founder and CEO, Nyakio Grieco, a 25-year beauty industry veteran. Expanding into South Africa represents the company’s first footprint outside the United States as it scales its digital and physical retail presence globally.

“Taking Thirteen Lune global starting in South Africa is both a critical business expansion and a deeply personal homecoming,” said Grieco. “My father dedicated years of his life’s work to South Africa, so returning to the continent that shaped my family’s legacy to launch a platform built on heritage and equity is a lifelong dream. We are entering the market as a true disruptor—hyper-focused on serving everyone by creating a direct pipeline for South African consumers to discover leading U.S. and global beauty brands.”

Through Takealot’s digital ecosystem, reaching millions of active online shoppers nationwide, South Africans will gain streamlined access to Thirteen Lune’s curated beauty offerings across skin care, hair care, and cosmetics. Highlights of the upcoming launch will include Grieco’s clean skin care line, Relevant Beauty, alongside a curated list of cult-favorite global brands. The complete brand partner lineup will be revealed in the coming weeks.

“This is far more than the launch of new beauty brands. It represents another important step in our ambition to build South Africa’s most trusted beauty destination. We are incredibly proud that Thirteen Lune selected Takealot as its exclusive South African partner – not simply because of our scale, but because of our shared belief that eCommerce can create opportunity, celebrate founder stories and make exceptional products accessible to more people. Together, we’re introducing some of the world’s most exciting beauty brands to South Africa while laying the foundations for a beauty ecosystem that will continue to grow for years to come,” Ryan Ferreira, Head of Retail, Takealot.

SuperCom Wins Third New Electronic Monitoring Contract in Utah, Displacing Incumbent of More than a Decade

Sheriff’s Agency Selects SuperCom After Receiving Direct Referral from an Existing County Customer

NEW YORK, Aug. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB), a global provider of secure solutions for the e-Government, IoT, and Cybersecurity sectors, today announced that it has secured a new county-level electronic monitoring contract with a Utah sheriff’s agency directly following the recommendation of an existing SuperCom customer in another county and a trial of SuperCom’s technology. The selection fully displaces the incumbent technology provider that had served the county for over 10 years and represents SuperCom’s third electronic monitoring contract in Utah.

SuperCom will deploy its PureSecurity Suite to support the agency’s community supervision program, replacing the incumbent’s existing equipment with SuperCom’s GPS-based electronic monitoring technology. The platform provides advanced location tracking, configurable alerts, anti-tamper protections, and centralized monitoring tools designed to support effective participant supervision. The agreement follows a recurring revenue model based on daily active units.

“The greatest endorsement of our platform is a recommendation of our technology from one public safety agency to another,” commented Ordan Trabelsi, President and CEO of SuperCom. “Importantly, this referral shows that more successful deployments are beginning to generate their own momentum, as the performance of our technology and the quality of our support turn satisfied agencies into advocates for SuperCom.  That trust, reinforced by the new customer’s own trial, was central to this selection and the displacement of a provider that had served the county for more than a decade.”

“Utah provides a clear example of how we have established a strong foothold within individual states,” Trabelsi continued. “Our experience there demonstrates how proven technology and disciplined execution translate into incumbent displacement, customer advocacy and lasting competitive advantage. This same customer-led approach is reflected in the more than 45 new U.S. electronic monitoring contracts we have secured since mid-2024. With this expanding footprint, our trailing twelve-month EBITDA1 of approximately $11.7 million through the second quarter of 2026 and a strong balance sheet give us the financial and operational capacity to deploy efficiently, support customers at scale and maintain a high standard of execution across the markets we serve.”

The new contract follows SuperCom’s initial Utah contract, secured through a competitive process in April 2025, and its second direct sheriff’s agency contract in October 2025, which also displaced an incumbent provider. Together, the three contracts demonstrate how proven field performance and trusted customer relationships are establishing SuperCom as a trusted partner among public safety agencies in Utah.
