Geotab launches Investigations and new safety capabilities to help fleets make every journey safer

New solutions make it easier for fleet managers to surface risk, investigate incidents and take targeted action

HANNOVER, Germany, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- IAA HANNOVER -- Every journey matters, to the driver making it, the business depending on it and the family waiting at the end of it. As fleets navigate rising operating costs and increasing road risk, Geotab Inc. ("Geotab"), a global leader in connected operations, video telematics and AI-powered insights, today announced a new suite of safety capabilities designed to help fleet managers turn complex data into clear, targeted action. The announcements include Geotab Investigations, a unified solution for resolving road incidents, alongside expanded video coaching, a redesigned Safety Overview Page and new violation detection.

Safety is a growing priority for fleets. According to a Geotab survey, 95% of European fleet professionals believe the risk of driving collisions has increased over the past five years. For fleet leaders, supporting drivers requires more than monitoring past behavior. It requires timely intelligence that helps identify risk, prioritise coaching and measure improvement while keeping drivers at the center of every safety program.

"Every journey matters, and behind every data point is a driver whose safety and wellbeing deserve attention," said Aaron Jarvis, Vice President EMEA at Geotab. "Our latest safety capabilities help fleet managers move from reviewing disconnected information to taking focused action. By bringing risk insights, coaching workflows and investigation tools together, Geotab makes it easier for safety teams to understand what is happening across their fleets and support drivers before risk becomes a collision."

Geotab Investigations: a unified system of record for incident resolution

Fleet organisations regularly need to investigate incidents such as collisions, customer or citizen complaints, property damage and safety violations. These investigations typically involve multiple stakeholders — operations teams, safety managers, insurance providers and legal teams — and the process is often manual and fragmented, creating operational inefficiency alongside legal, compliance and reputational risk.

Geotab Investigations addresses this by bringing existing telematics data into a unified, structured workflow. Rather than assembling evidence across disconnected systems, safety and operations teams can locate incident-related vehicle activity, reconstruct event timelines and attach supporting materials in one place.

"Fleet-related incidents have cost companies billions of dollars in litigation and reputational damage, largely because critical data remains siloed," added Jarvis. "Geotab Investigations changes this by turning raw data into a structured, defensible system of record, providing fleet managers with the intelligence to mitigate risk and the evidence to protect their drivers, operations and bottom line."

Key capabilities of Geotab Investigations include:

- Data-driven incident search: Instantly locate all telematics-based vehicle activity associated with an incident using location and time-based search.

- Event timeline reconstruction: Understand the full sequence of movement by combining trips, driver behavior, speed events and location data to reconstruct a precise timeline of what occurred before, during and after an incident.

- Supporting evidence integration: Attach and organise external materials — notes, emails, reports, documents, photos and video — alongside telematics data to provide the full story behind every event.

- Structured case workflow: Create and maintain structured cases with clear stages from open to closed, ensuring incidents are tracked, governed and auditable.

- Review and decision support: Provide stakeholders with complete, time-aligned records that support operational decisions, insurance claims, compliance needs and internal review.

- Drivers also benefit directly when incidents are investigated using accurate data, helping fleets determine what actually happened and reducing the risk of incorrect attribution.

Additional safety capabilities

Alongside Investigations, Geotab is announcing three further capabilities that extend its connected safety platform.

- Expanded video coaching: Geotab's video coaching platform, developed for the GO Focus Plus and GO Focus Pro, is being extended to Lytx Surfsight AI12 and AI14 and Xirgo KP2 cameras through the Geotab Marketplace, at no additional cost to active subscribers and without hardware changes. Managers can review events in the Geotab platform, use Smart Sequence and Magnitude Ranking to prioritise risk and connect events to the right driver with Smart Driver ID.

- Safety Overview Page: Set to be introduced as a native part of Geotab's platform, the Safety Overview Page consolidates existing safety insights into one daily-use destination. It provides a 0–100 Safety Metric, peer benchmarking, percentile ranking, high-risk driver prioritisation, behavior trends and plain-language explanations of each metric, helping managers quickly understand fleet safety health and determine where coaching or further investigation is needed.

- Red-light violation detection: In addition to detecting illegal U-turns, GO Focus Plus and GO Focus Pro cameras now detect red-light violations at signalised intersections, giving safety teams video-backed insights to support targeted coaching.

Results

European fleets are already demonstrating what connected safety intelligence makes possible. Richfords, Safety Champion award recipient at the European Geotab Innovation Awards, recorded a 22% reduction in collision risk and a 59% improvement in safe driving behaviours within two months of deploying Geotab Vitality, generating a 411% return on investment. Barhale, a UK civil engineering contractor, combined Geotab telematics with AI video to reduce preventable collisions by 8.8%, eliminate high-risk drivers entirely and negotiate a 2.7% reduction in insurance premiums, despite 40% fleet growth.

LONDON, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Fastmarkets, a leading cross-commodity price reporting and analytics provider, today announced its stakeholder engagement with the Saudi Arabian government's National Industrial Development Center (NIDC) in connection with the continued development of its existing suite of ferrous scrap price indices in the Kingdom.

The engagement reflects the growing importance of independent and transparent pricing benchmarks as Saudi Arabia expands its industrial base under Vision 2030 and develops increasingly sophisticated domestic commodity markets.

Fastmarkets launched its steel scrap HMS 1&2 index, domestic composite, delivered Saudi Arabia, riyals/tonne price (code MB-STE-0939) in August 2025, following extensive consultation with local market participants, including NIDC.

On July 7, 2026, Fastmarkets expanded its coverage with three regional ferrous scrap indices for HMS 1&2 in Jeddah, Riyadh and the Eastern Province, providing greater visibility into price movements across the Kingdom's major industrial centres. Fastmarkets retains full and independent responsibility for its prices, which are produced in accordance with its published methodologies and established price-reporting standards.

"The introduction of Fastmarkets' Saudi Arabian Steel Scrap Price Index marks an important step toward enhancing market transparency and providing a price reference based on local market data. The index can contribute to improving transaction efficiency and contributes to strengthening local supply chains and enhancing the competitiveness of the Saudi steel sector, in line with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030," said Matar Al-Harthi, EVP, Minerals and Metals at NIDC.

"Our ongoing dialogue with NIDC represents an important milestone in the continued development of greater price transparency within Saudi Arabia's steel and recycling industries," said Raju Daswani, CEO of Fastmarkets.

"Independent price benchmarks help create the transparency and confidence needed for efficient markets to grow. As Saudi Arabia continues to invest in its industrial base and infrastructure under Vision 2030, reliable pricing references are becoming increasingly important for producers, recyclers, traders, consumers and investors."

"We greatly value NIDC's constructive engagement and the insights we have received from participants across the Saudi market. That consultation helps us understand how these markets are evolving while Fastmarkets maintains full independence over its methodologies and benchmark prices."

Saudi Arabia generates approximately 3.5 million tonnes of steel scrap annually and has around 16 million tonnes of steelmaking capacity, according to industry estimates. Continued investment in industrial development and infrastructure is expected to support long-term demand for steel and raw materials, further increasing the importance of robust market infrastructure and transparent pricing mechanisms.

Fastmarkets' Saudi ferrous scrap indices provide independent pricing references for a broad range of market participants, including steel producers, recyclers, scrap traders, industrial scrap generators, downstream steel buyers, government agencies and international stakeholders active in Saudi Arabia's steel value chain.

The announcement builds on Fastmarkets' continued investment in Middle Eastern metals markets and complements its expanding suite of regional price assessments and benchmarks, including Saudi Arabian CFR steel billet and domestic rebar prices.

Gorenje Introduces the G600 Dishwasher, Bringing Smarter, More Sustainable, and Effortless Cleaning to Middle Eastern Homes

With an energy-efficient dishwasher engineered for every lifestyle, Gorenje continues to simplify everyday living across the UAE and wider Middle East.

DUBAI, UAE, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Gorenje, one of Europe's leading home appliance brands operating under Hisense Group, has unveiled its latest innovation for the region: the G600 dishwasher, a state-of-the-art, energy-efficient appliance designed to simplify daily routines and elevate everyday cleaning for every modern household.

As residential communities across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar continue to expand, with premium villas, townhouses, and branded residences driving demand for high-performance kitchen solutions, families are increasingly seeking appliances that combine sustainability, convenience, and reliable results. The G600 responds directly to this momentum, setting a new standard for eco-friendly living with a 10 percent reduction in energy consumption compared to A-class industry standards, saving energy while delivering exceptional cleaning performance.

Efficiency takes center stage with the Smart Dosing feature. Households fill the detergent container once and enjoy up to 20 washing cycles, roughly one month, without the need to refill. The G600 automatically dispenses the precise amount of detergent for each selected programme, minimising waste and reducing environmental impact. For unmatched hygiene, an optional UV Light Function eliminates 99.99 percent of bacteria and viruses, even at lower temperatures such as Eco 55°C. Paired with versatile programmes including Eco, Auto, Intensive, Daily, Night, and Hygiene, it ensures every cleaning need is met with ease and precision.

The G600 also takes the guesswork out of drying. The SmartUltra Dry feature uses a fan to remove hot steam from the tub after each cycle, while the door automatically opens slightly to allow fresh air to circulate, ensuring even plastic dishes dry completely while protecting kitchen counters from steam damage. For late-night routines, the Night Programme operates at 2 dB lower than standard cycles for peaceful, undisturbed sleep. Thoughtful additions such as the special BottleWash Holder, which secures a variety of bottle sizes and uses a powerful water jet to reach deep into hard-to-clean areas, and an upper spray arm for cutlery that improves cleaning efficiency by 30 percent, make thorough, hygienic results effortless.

Ismail Al Horani, Vice President for Middle East & Africa at Hisense, said: "Today's households want appliances that save time, save energy, and simply work. With the G600 dishwasher, we set out to deliver exactly that, an intelligent, sustainable solution that fits seamlessly into every lifestyle, whether that is a busy professional, an active family, or a laid-back couple. It reflects Gorenje's commitment to simplifying life while delivering premium performance and design."

The launch reinforces Gorenje's strategy to expand its premium portfolio across the Middle East, supporting the region's growing appetite for integrated, sustainable, and contemporary living. With its combination of energy efficiency, smart technology, and user-friendly design, the G600 dishwasher is set to become a standout choice for modern kitchens.

Institution earns top ranking for a second consecutive year, reflecting its longstanding

commitment to patient care and giving children back their childhood

DALLAS, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. News & World Report ranked Scottish Rite for Children No. 1 in the nation for pediatric orthopedic care in its 2026-2027 Best Children's Hospitals specialty rankings.

For nearly two decades, Scottish Rite has placed among the nation's top pediatric orthopedic programs in collaboration with Children's Medical Center Dallas and UT Southwestern Medical Center. This marks the first time the organization has earned the No. 1 ranking in consecutive years.

"We are deeply honored by this recognition because it represents the exceptional care we provide to children and families every day," said Robert L. Walker, president and CEO of Scottish Rite for Children. "Our greatest measure of success will always be the difference we make in their lives. This honor belongs to the people across Scottish Rite who make that possible."

U.S. News develops its annual rankings in partnership with RTI International, which collected and analyzed data from 114 children's hospitals and surveyed thousands of pediatric specialists. The rankings consider factors including clinical outcomes, compliance with established best practices and level and quality of hospital resources directly related to patient care.

"This recognition reflects Scottish Rite's continued work to advance pediatric orthopedic care," said Daniel J. Sucato, M.D., M.S., chief of staff at Scottish Rite for Children. "Every advancement we make starts with a simple question: How can we provide better care for this child?"

This year, Scottish Rite performed the first U.S. implantation of a newly FDA-cleared device to treat early-onset scoliosis, expanding treatment options for children with complex spinal conditions.

In recent years, the National Institutes of Health awarded Scottish Rite R01 grants totaling $4.1 million to advance research for osteonecrosis.

Scottish Rite also advances the field through education. The Dorothy & Bryant Edwards Fellowship in Pediatric Orthopedics and Scoliosis, the largest pediatric orthopedic fellowship in the world, graduated its 200th fellow this year.

"Our strength comes from the way clinical care, research and education work together at Scottish Rite," Sucato said. "That approach allows us to advance pediatric orthopedics and, most importantly, provide the best possible care for every child."

About Scottish Rite for Children 

Scottish Rite for Children has been dedicated to giving children back their childhood for more than a century. The institution is a world-renowned leader in the treatment of pediatric orthopedic conditions, such as scoliosis, clubfoot, hand differences, hip disorders, limb lengthening and reconstruction, sports injuries and fractures, as well as certain related arthritic and neurological disorders and learning disorders, such as dyslexia. The organization conducts innovative research and provides high-level education opportunities for medical professionals around the world. Scottish Rite operates two campuses, including a hospital in Dallas, Texas, and an ambulatory surgery center in Frisco, Texas, and is known for being a bright, child-friendly place that does not look or feel like a health care institution.

CKGSB-IE University Report Reveals New Models of Chinese Companies Going Global

SINGAPORE, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business (CKGSB) today launched Chinese Companies' New Playbook for Going Global, a joint report with IE University's China Observatory examining how Chinese companies are rethinking their globalization strategies in an increasingly fragmented global economy.

Led by CKGSB's Professor of Economics and Associate Dean Li Wei, the report argues that Chinese corporate globalization is entering a third phase — "capability export." Rather than simply shipping products or building overseas sales channels, companies are increasingly taking the operating capabilities abroad – including technical standards, product development, supply-chain organization, service, branding, and business models—while adapting them to local markets.

For companies pursuing global growth, localization is becoming critical. Li Haitao, Dean and Dean's Distinguished Chair Professor of Finance at CKGSB, writes: "The next generation of winners will be those that understand local politics, respect local rules, invest in local capabilities and build trust with local stakeholders."

The report identifies two emerging models of Chinese overseas expansion. "Chain style globalization" sees large companies expand alongside suppliers and partners, extending industrial ecosystems overseas, whereas "swarm-style globalization" describes how smaller firms expand in quick succession supported by China's infrastructure such as industrial clusters, cross-border platforms, logistics networks and overseas warehouses.

The report's field research in Southeast Asia cautions against treating overseas markets as extensions of China. Price, speed and scale do not automatically translate into success: companies must navigate fragmented demand, regulatory complexity, local-content requirements, incomplete supply chains and cultural differences.

For multinationals and Southeast Asian businesses, the shift creates new competitive pressures and opportunities for partnership as Chinese companies seek local expertise, talent and networks to build deeper roots in overseas markets.

On cross-border acquisitions, Bin Ma, IE University's Professor and Academic Director of China Observatory, highlights the importance of people who bridge organizational, cultural and institutional divides. "Boundary spanners, or experienced executives dispatched from the acquiring company to work within the newly acquired organization, are likely to be among the most important yet often overlooked sources of competitive advantage," he writes.

José Félix Valdivieso, Chairman of China Observatory at IE University, highlights the cultural dimension of capability export: "Chinese companies must increasingly export knowledge, entrepreneurial spirit, organizational capabilities and management systems."

The full report is available on CKGSB's website.

TrusTrace Launches New Platform to Turn Supply Chain Data Into Insight and Action

New platform builds on TrusTrace's enterprise-proven data foundation, starting with Supply Chain Intelligence and automated program operations.

STOCKHOLM, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As sustainability and due diligence regulations multiply, global brands face a widening gap between the supply chain data they collect and their ability to act on it. TrusTrace, a global leader in supply chain traceability and compliance, today announced a new platform built to close that gap.

The platform expands TrusTrace's enterprise-proven traceability and compliance foundation, making supply chain data directly accessible for insight and decision-making while automating the programs that act on it. Teams can identify what needs attention faster and automate assessments, evidence collection, follow-up, and corrective action.

At its foundation is TrusTrace's real-time, lot-level forward traceability and AI-powered backward chain-of-custody data across materials and sourcing models.

"Every regulation ultimately asks the same question: can you prove it? But proving compliance starts much earlier, with understanding your supply chain, knowing where the gaps are, and acting before they become problems," said Shameek Ghosh, CEO and Co-Founder of TrusTrace.

Rolling out in phases starting this month, the platform has been built and validated over the past year with several of the world's leading brands. Its first focus is Supply Chain Intelligence, which allows brands to ask natural-language questions across suppliers, facilities, products, materials, and supply chain relationships, surfacing gaps, patterns, insights, and reports in seconds.

Future phases will add regulatory and enterprise intelligence, connecting external requirements and brands' policies with supply chain data to identify which requirements apply and address gaps earlier.

TrusTrace is also introducing a program builder and orchestrator that automates Supplier Compliance workflows. Brands can automate vendor onboarding, continuous monitoring, assessments, evidence requests, follow-ups, and corrective actions using their own data.

Supply Chain Intelligence is the newest of three connected solution areas on the TrusTrace platform. Supplier Compliance manages whether suppliers meet a brand's requirements; Supply Chain Intelligence identifies gaps and supports decision-making; and Product Compliance determines whether products meet applicable requirements and provides evidence to prove it. The launch also introduces automation capabilities that connect all three.

"We have spent years helping brands build trusted supply chain data. Now we are making that data work harder, turning it into intelligence, decisions, and action," said Ghosh. "The goal is to help brands scale increasingly complex compliance programs without scaling their teams at the same rate, so they can spend more time on the decisions that matter."

The new platform is built around four pillars:

- One unified data foundation: Suppliers submit data once, in any format or language. TrusTrace extracts, validates, and links it into one trusted foundation that can be reused across use cases.

- Supply Chain Intelligence: Brands receive live insights and reports grounded in their own TrusTrace data, with regulatory, enterprise, and risk intelligence to come.

- Automated operations: A program builder and orchestrator automate multi-step workflows across the supplier base.

- One connected compliance platform: Supplier requirements, regulatory obligations, and product compliance share the same data and evidence, reducing duplication for both brands and suppliers.

AI supports data extraction and validation, natural-language access to supply chain information, and program automation. A new program can go live in as little as three days, with the first supplier data request sent in week one. TrusTrace's data foundation spans more than 120,000 suppliers across more than 80 countries.

The platform is designed for brands of every size, with additional capabilities planned as the rollout continues.

The partnership brings together the companies' complementary strengths to deliver faster, more efficient, access to mission‑relevant RF insights. By combining HawkEye 360's space‑based signals intelligence, automated geolocation, and advanced RF analytics with ERA's integration and mission‑workflow capabilities, the collaboration significantly enhances HawkEye 360's ability to provide defense and security customers with timely, operationally actionable information.

This partnership expands access to HawkEye 360's high‑value RF data and analytics, enabling customers to move RF‑derived insights more quickly and seamlessly into operational environments. Together, the companies will help streamline mission workflows, strengthen situational awareness, and empower users to make faster, better‑informed decisions across a range of demanding operational scenarios.

"European defense organizations are seeking faster, more integrated ways to understand increasingly complex operating environments," said John Serafini, Chief Executive Officer of HawkEye 360. "By combining HawkEye 360's space-based signals intelligence with ERA's automation and processing expertise, we can deliver actionable information more quickly to support allied warfighters and defense leaders across Europe."

"We are seeing growing customer interest worldwide—not only in advanced passive surveillance systems and their role in modern defense concepts, particularly in SIGINT, but also in integrating existing solutions already deployed in the field to unlock new capabilities."

The agreement reflects a shared commitment to advancing defense and surveillance capabilities through innovation. By uniting their technologies and expertise, HawkEye 360 and ERA will provide customers with enhanced capability to transform RF data into operationally useful information while improving the speed and efficiency of decision-making.
