INNIO Group (INNIO*) has been nominated for the prestigious German Sustainability Award in the category for Developers and Manufacturers of More Sustainable Engines and Turbines. This prominent award, given annually, recognizes companies that excel in addressing industry challenges and make meaningful contributions to sustainable transformation through their products, services, or operations.

The nomination highlights INNIO’s efforts to support the green energy transition and empower industries and communities to make sustainable energy work today. For instance, customers can already purchase all energy solutions from the Jenbacher* product portfolio with a “Ready for H2“** option, enabling them to convert to 100% hydrogen operation once hydrogen becomes more readily available.

Simultaneously, the company is taking significant steps to make its own operations more sustainable and reduce its carbon footprint. By 2030, INNIO plans to reduce the carbon footprint of its production and office sites by 50%, while also safeguarding and conserving natural resources. INNIO reports on its progress annually through its sustainability report.

“The nomination underscores the pioneering role we assume with INNIO in the industry and acknowledges the work our INNIO team accomplishes daily to make energy more sustainable,” says Dr. Olaf Berlien, President and CEO of the INNIO Group. “I am proud of the entire team and would like to thank all employees for their contribution to what we have achieved.”

The German Sustainability Award seal is regarded as the most prestigious German recognition for exemplary ecological and social achievements. Sponsors of the award include the German Sustainability Award Foundation in collaboration with the German federal government, associations, business groups, civil organizations, research institutions, and the media. The winners will be announced in Dusseldorf on November 23, 2023, as part of the 16th German Sustainability Day.

INNIO has previously received multiple awards for its sustainability commitments. INNIO’s award recognitions include the Platinum Medal by EcoVadis, which ranks INNIO among the top 1% of evaluated companies. Additionally, Sustainalytics named INNIO as the global number 1 among industry companies as part of the ESG risk rating at the time of the rating.

Who is Nika Nikoubin? A Bloody Las Vegas Hotel Story is not just another True Crime story but a powerful testament to resilience and authenticity, set to captivate readers worldwide. In a compelling narrative, this book takes readers on an intimate journey through Nika’s life, from her childhood in Iran to her pursuit of dreams in the United States and the night that unfolded in a Las Vegas hotel room.

Following Nika Nikoubin’s final court hearing in Las Vegas, certain media outlets and online comments presented a distorted narrative, failing to capture the full spectrum of Nika’s life experiences and the hurdles her mental health struggles posed. “The incident in Las Vegas, which has been subject to misconceptions, was solely rooted in mental health struggles and bears no connection to any political motives or affiliations,” states Nika. “My autobiography is an opportunity to provide an authentic perspective beyond sensationalized narratives.”

ISBN (Paperback): 979-8-218-26706-3

ISBN (Ebook): 979-8-218-26707-0

Book Genre: Autobiography

Publisher: Nika Nikoubin LLC

Nika Nikoubin, a 2023 Persian talent, is emerging as an advocate for mental health awareness and societal transformation. Her autobiography delves into her journey, shedding light on the complexities and challenges she has faced while battling bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. “My main goal is to spark conversations about mental health,” Nika says, echoing the central theme of her book. Her mission extends to dismantling the cultural taboos surrounding trauma and mental health, particularly among Persian women who have suffered assault—Nika’s determination to create a more compassionate society. A portion of the proceeds of the book will be allocated to National Alliance on Mental Illness.

“The Jungle,” a bi-weekly podcast hosted by Disney Historian and Author David “Dr. Skipper” Marley and Crooner and Mid-Century Artist Trevor Kelly, is excited to celebrate its one-year anniversary on September 1st, 2023. With a unique blend of Disney insights, theme park adventures, and unscripted pop culture discussions, “The Jungle” has captured the hearts of listeners, making it a standout in the podcast landscape.

Tackling everything from stories behind Splash Mountain’s real-life historical significance to a behind-the-scenes look at what has been called “one of the greatest Disneyland pranks”. “The Jungle” brings an exciting and authentic perspective to its episodes. In true Skipper fashion, the podcast often navigates uncharted waters, taking unexpected turns that keep listeners entertained and engaged.

Key Achievements in the First Year: “The Jungle” recently marked its first milestone with a live recording event at Tiki Oasis San Diego, where several hundred enthusiastic “hip skips” (devoted listeners) gathered to share in the festivities. The podcast’s fun atmosphere has cultivated a passionate community of fans who appreciate the candid conversations and genuine friendship between the hosts.

A Look Back and a Glimpse Ahead: Reflecting on the journey, co-host Trevor Kelly shared, “Seeing such a wonderful response to hanging out and chatting with my friend Dave has been absolutely amazing. People seem to dig hearing us tell wild stories about working at Disneyland and more. We chat about everything from wild Llamas running down Main Street, to Maryland crab cakes. There’s really no telling what’s gonna pop up each episode.”

In line with their commitment to their audience, “The Jungle” has launched a Patreon featuring exclusive benefits such as a commemorative pin, membership in a “secret jungle society,” special livestream events, and bonus episodes.

Recognition and Acclaim: “The Jungle” has not only captured the hearts of listeners but has also made its mark on podcast charts. In its first year, the podcast has consistently ranked in Apple Podcasts top 200 charts for North America and Canada in its category, demonstrating its growing popularity and impact.

Listener Testimonials: Listeners have praised “The Jungle” for its unique approach to storytelling. One fan remarked, “I’ve seen videos and listened to other podcasts about Disneyland, but they are all just facts and dates. These guys tell real stories about the bizarre things that go on. And it’s nice that these two are also bizarre!” Another shared, “Really fun stuff. You never know what’s around the bend …well, nor where you’ve been either. A hoot!”
