?? Celebrating World Water Day On #WorldWaterDay, we take a moment to reflect on the importance of water stewardship and the urgent need for innovative solutions to tackle global water challenges. At the 100+ Accelerator, we embrace water stewardship as a core challenge in our program, empowering startups to drive change and develop sustainable solutions that will have a lasting impact on our planet's most precious resource. A special shout-out to our alumni water startups from previous cohorts, who continue to lead the way in water innovation. Some of these trailblazing companies were invited to participate in an inspiring alumni panel during our recent Cohort 6 Kick-Off, where they shared their journeys and insights with our next generation of changemakers. ?? Thank you H2Ok Innovations and Membrion, Inc. Our Cohort 6 water startups also had the opportunity to learn from two water industry experts, Laurie Gilmore and Will Sarni, who are part of our incredible team of Subject Matter Experts. Their expertise and guidance will be invaluable as our startups work to develop cutting-edge solutions for a sustainable water future. Meet our Cohort 6 startups: AEQUOR, Inc.

It was excellent to have our collaboration with Unilever highlighted by Jennifer Han FJ (Chief Product Supply Officer Unilever Foods) in Willem Uijen (Chief Supply Chain Officer Unilever) and Maria Villablanca's conversation about how #Unilever is driving net productivity in manufacturing and supply chain through using #AI technology like ours at H2Ok Innovations. With our patented technology, we're proud to be the top technical solution globally in Clean-in-Place (CIP) and Changeover optimization on the market, driving unparalleled value in CIP/changeover optimization, improving quality, while doing so with the greatest operator ease, reliability, and speed to value. Here are some highlights from Jennifer: ?? - "With this adoption of the solution, we're able to reduce the CIP process time by 20%, - Thus more than 20% of the savings of energy, water and wastewater treatment. - With more than 100 bps of #OEE improvement, - With less than 1 year payback" Digital transformation in manufacturing is extremely powerful when done right, with maniacal focus on results, speed to value, ease of implementation, and scalability. At H2Ok, we are hyper-obsessed with driving net productivity for our partners like Unilever, unlocking a competitive advantage on savings, efficiency, and sustainability. Thank you Jennifer Han FJ and your team! Customer-obsession is core to us, and the H2Ok Innovations team is focused on delivering even more value to come. ?? #netproductivity #performance #manufacturing #Industry40 #digitalmanufacturing #CPG #FMCG #CleaninPlace #CIP #waterstewardship #energy #sustainability #IndustrialAutomation #IIoT #IndustrialAI #manufacturingexcellence #operationsexcellence Kieran Roberts Charlotte Ward Tanvi Savant
