New Analysis from Reach Advisors Reveals Region Outpacing Peers

GREATER DES MOINES, Iowa, March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Greater Des Moines Partnership unveiled new analysis from James Chung, President of Reach Advisors, showing Greater Des Moines outperforming Midwestern peers across key economic indicators as it approaches the one-million-resident milestone. Having conducted three deep data analyses of the region over the past decade, Chung’s latest findings highlight sustained population, employment and gross domestic product (GDP) growth — paired with affordability and cross-sector collaboration that continue to distinguish Greater Des Moines nationally.

Greater Des Moines’ combined statistical area (CSA), which includes the Des Moines and Ames metropolitan statistical areas (MSA), is approaching the one-million-population milestone. This benchmark increases visibility, enhances eligibility for larger federal and corporate investments and signals the scale needed to compete for major projects.

According to the new analysis:

• Population in the CSA is up 13.4% over the past decade, the fastest growth in the Midwest, and is now nearly 940,000 strong.
• Real GDP in the CSA has increased more than 30% in the past decade, ranking #2 among Midwest peers.
• Employment in the CSA has grown 13.3% in the last decade, ranking #1 among Midwest peers.
• The labor force in the Des Moines MSA is now 33% larger than in 2005.

“Most people think this is normal,” Chung said at the recent 2025 Greater Des Moines Regional Summit. “It’s not. What’s happening here is extraordinary.”

Chung attributes Greater Des Moines’ success to a rare combination of structural strengths, including:

• High-skill households: The region attracts 28% more dual-degree couples than similar metros, generating an estimated 2% boost in GDP.
• A strong economic base: Finance, insurance and real estate make up 20% of jobs, 30% of wages and nearly 40% of regional GDP.
• Collaboration as a competitive edge: Leaders across business, government and civic organizations work across boundaries to solve problems and accelerate progress.

The data is already being used to inform business recruitment, site selection conversations and long-term regional strategy. Greater Des Moines also pairs economic opportunities with exceptional livability, including commute times around 20 minutes and a cost of living well below the national average. It’s a combination that continues to attract workers and families from across the country.

“This analysis confirms what we’ve experienced firsthand,” said Tiffany Tauscheck, President and CEO of The Partnership. “Growth at this scale reflects years of collaboration across communities throughout our region. By aligning around shared priorities, we’ve created momentum that benefits Greater Des Moines and the state of Iowa — and positions our region for even greater opportunities as we approach one million residents.”

Recent national rankings reflect the region’s competitive strength:

• #2 Top Metro for Number of Economic Development Projects (among metros with a population of 200,000 to 1 million) — Site Selection Magazine, Governor’s Cup, 2025
• #2 Best Place for Young Professionals — Forbes, 2024
• #4 Most Livable Metro in the U.S. — RentCafe, 2026
• #5 Best Place for a Fresh Start — ConsumerAffairs, 2026

Further underscoring this sustained performance, more than $5.7 billion in capital investment and economic development activity is currently underway or advancing across the Greater Des Moines region, with an additional $2 billion in active projects in the pipeline.

A few of these projects include:

• Lift DSM — This $600 million investment in a new terminal and parking garage at the Des Moines International Airport will support record passenger growth and evolving travel needs, strengthening regional connectivity and business competitiveness.
• Vermeer Manufacturing Facility — A 300,000-square-foot facility built on 186 acres in Bondurant, Iowa will support 300+ jobs related to the manufacturing and support of industrial parts and equipment, reflecting continued growth in advanced manufacturing in Iowa.
• Robinson Manufacturing Facility — Wisconsin-based Robinson, Inc. will invest $76 million in facility upgrades to a newly constructed manufacturing space outside Altoona, Iowa and create 100 jobs in the custom metal solutions field, marking its first facility outside Wisconsin and further strengthening the region’s advanced manufacturing and supply chain capabilities.
• 515 Walnut Tower — This $150 million, 33-story residential skyscraper with 390 residential units is set to be Downtown’s third tallest building and the largest of its kind in the Midwest.
• Market District Redevelopment — A $700 million expansion of the Historic East Village that will deliver new housing, restaurants, retail, outdoor gathering spaces and a large public parking hub, connecting Downtown’s core with the recently completed $15 million Two Rivers Park.
• Capital City Reinvestment District — This district includes a $500 million development, featuring the Iowa Soccer Development Foundation stadium and plaza. Since 1983, the city and its partners have worked to convert the former Superfund site into productive, community-focused space. This state-of-the-art project includes a professional soccer stadium and Global Plaza, alongside housing, restaurants, a hotel and additional mixed-use development, creating a vibrant destination at a key entrance to the capital city.
• The Grand Experience — The estimated $400 million, 226-acre suburban development is expected to be one of the largest private investment projects in West Des Moines’ history and will include an indoor water park, a family entertainment center, a conference center and hotel. 

These projects reflect the measurable gains highlighted in Chung’s data — translating into visible, transformative investment across the region. Together, these indicators reflect a region outperforming its peers today while building the scale, infrastructure and alignment needed to compete nationally in the decades ahead.

Media interested in speaking with Chung or with regional leaders deploying this data in real time may request interviews by contacting Metinka Slater, Media Relations Manager for The Partnership.

HONG KONG, March 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Daybreak on the second day found the Rolex China Sea Race fleet already battle-tested. After slipping quietly out of Victoria Harbour, the boats sailed straight into a potent easterly flow and building seas, transforming the race from a gentle start into a full‑throttle push across open water. Conditions built steadily overnight, with 25–28 kts blowing throughout the evening.

It was a tough night for some entries. The double‑handed team on Juice retired due to equipment malfunction, while PHS entry Jibulai later withdrew after suffering a broken mainsail. 

Moonblue 2 on the other hand reported “a big night, charging through the oil rigs and ripping off roughly 170nm”, with the crew in high spirits.

For the first ever single‑handed entry, Tiger Mok aboard 2 Easy successfully completed his first night at sea: “Survived the first evening — great to see the sunset and never felt this happy and special to see the sunrise. We’ve got 20 to 25kts right now, boat is going okay. I had a little autopilot malfunction last night — a sail tie caught the autohelm, blew a fuse, but it’s working again. I hope the autopilot will be nice to me. I’ve been very gentle with it, not pushing too hard.”

By morning, winds eased to around 18kts, with 1.5 to 2m waves, offering the fleet a brief window to reset, regroup, and enjoy a well‑earned breakfast.

But the respite didn’t last long — by afternoon, winds built again, with a tired crew aboard Parnassus reporting 25 to 27kts.

Team Alive–Rampage have taken the southernmost rhumb line, aiming to avoid a patch of adverse current that could threaten their bid to break the race record. By 2000 HKT they had logged 420nm and were charging toward Subic at 15kts, holding a 25nm lead over Standard Insurance Centennial V.

The two TP52s — Standard Insurance Centennial VII and Happy Go — remain locked in close quarters, sticking nearer the rhumb line and continuing an intense match‑racing duel with only a few miles between them.

Meanwhile, in the battle for IRC Overall, Seawolf is putting on a commanding performance and remains well‑positioned to challenge for their first overall victory.

Race action is being tracked by Yellowbrick Tracking https://yb.tl/rolexchinasea2026  and is being shown live at www.rolexchinasearace.com – the Race can also be followed on the YB Race Viewer App.

ABOUT ROLEX

AN UNRIVALLED REPUTATION FOR QUALITY AND EXPERTISE

Rolex is an integrated and independent Swiss watch manufacture. Headquartered in Geneva, the brand is recognized the world over for its expertise and the quality of its products – symbols of excellence, elegance and prestige. The movements of its Oyster Perpetual and Perpetual watches are certified by COSC, then tested in-house for their precision, performance and reliability. The Superlative Chronometer certification, symbolized by the green seal, confirms that each watch has successfully undergone tests conducted by Rolex in its own laboratories according to its own criteria. These are periodically validated by an independent external organization. The word ‘Perpetual’ is inscribed on every Rolex Oyster watch. But more than just a word on a dial, it is a philosophy that embodies the company’s vision and values. Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of the company, instilled a notion of perpetual excellence that would drive the company forward. This led Rolex to pioneer the development of the wristwatch and numerous major watchmaking innovations, such as the Oyster, the first waterproof wristwatch, launched in 1926, and the Perpetual rotor self-winding mechanism, invented in 1931. In the course of its history, Rolex has registered over 600 patents. At its four sites in Switzerland, the brand designs, develops and produces the majority of its watch components. A fifth site, also in Switzerland, is under construction and is expected to open in 2029. Rolex carries out its own manufacturing operations, from casting the gold alloys to machining, crafting, assembling and finishing the movement, case, dial and bracelet. Furthermore, the brand is actively involved in supporting the arts and culture, sport, and exploration, as well as those who are devising solutions to preserve the planet.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — DESLOC, a global smart lock brand under DESMAN, today announced the launch of the DESLOC Smart Lock K140 Plus, a next-generation smart deadbolt that uses advanced Palm Vein recognition technology to deliver secure, contactless access for modern households. By simply hovering a palm near the sensor, users can unlock their front door quickly and reliably—even in situations where traditional fingerprint recognition may struggle.

Unveiled at CES 2026 and recognized with a TechRadar CES 2026 Award, the K140 Plus sets a new benchmark in biometric home security by combining innovation, privacy protection, and everyday convenience.

“Palm vein recognition represents the next evolution in smart lock technology,” said Mark Dong, CEO of DESLOC. “With K140 Plus, we wanted to create a solution that works effortlessly for every family member—children, seniors, or anyone whose fingerprints may not always be recognized—while delivering stronger security and enhanced privacy.”

Unlike conventional fingerprint systems, Palm Vein recognition identifies the unique vein patterns beneath the skin. Because these patterns are internal and difficult to replicate, the technology provides enhanced protection against spoofing. Built-in liveness detection further prevents unauthorized access using photos, videos, or replicas. The false acceptance rate is as low as 1 in 1,000,000, significantly reducing the risk of unintended unlocks.

All biometric data is encrypted and stored locally on the device—never in the cloud—offering users greater peace of mind regarding data privacy.

In addition to its advanced biometric technology, the K140 Plus stands out with expanded user capacity, extended battery life, and enhanced durability—delivering meaningful upgrades compared to typical palm-recognition smart locks on the market.

DESLOC Smart Lock K140 Plus Key Features

Palm Vein Biometric Unlocking (Up to 100 Users):
Contactless, highly secure access by recognizing unique vein patterns beneath the skin. Supports up to 100 palm vein profiles—ideal for large families, rental properties, or multi-user households. More stable than traditional fingerprint unlocking and less affected by wet, dry, oily, or worn fingers.

Radar-Activated Gesture Entry:
Millimeter-wave radar sensing detects hand movement and enables touch-free interaction, delivering seamless and hygienic access.

Extended 9-Month Battery Life (10,000mAh):
Equipped with a high-capacity rechargeable battery delivering 9+ months of typical use—longer than many standard smart locks. Includes low-battery alerts and a discreet USB-C emergency power port for uninterrupted access.

Built-in Wi-Fi with Remote App Control:
Monitor lock status, receive real-time alerts, manage access, and control the lock from anywhere via the DESLOC App—no additional hub required.

Your Biometric Data Stays Private:
All palm vein data is encrypted and stored locally on the lock—never uploaded to the cloud—giving you greater control and enhanced protection against data breaches.

Door Status Detection with Magnetic Sensor + Auto-Lock:
Built-in magnetic sensing confirms the door is fully closed before automatically locking, preventing false locks and improving daily security. The lock also automatically detects left- or right-hand door orientation during installation.

IP65 Weatherproof & BHMA Grade 3 Certified:
Engineered with a high IP65 waterproof rating—offering stronger resistance to dust and heavy rain compared to many standard smart locks—while meeting rigorous standards for security, durability, and performance.

Multiple Unlock Methods:
In addition to palm vein recognition, users can unlock via PIN code, remote app control, or mechanical key.

Voice Assistant Compatibility:
Works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for convenient voice control integration.

Designed with a slim profile and hidden keypad, the K140 Plus complements a wide range of door styles and home aesthetics. The lock supports simple DIY installation, automatically detects left- or right-hand door orientation, and can typically be installed in 10–15 minutes without professional tools.

Pricing and Availability

The DESLOC K140 Plus is available beginning March 5, 2026, at DESLOC.com and Amazon.com for a suggested retail price of $169.99. It is currently available for $127.49 with code PRK140PS, valid through April 5, 2026, at 11:59 PM.

BARCELONA, Spain, March 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — During MWC Barcelona 2026, Huawei Government Public Services Digitalization((hereinafter referred to as “GPSD”)BU successfully held a series of professional events, including the Global AI+ Public Service Summit, National Foundation Model Roundtable, and open speeches, to discuss the future of the intelligent world with global customers and partners. During the event, Huawei launched the Global Intelligent Public Service Solution to accelerate intelligent transformation of public services and city governance.

At the Global AI+ Public Service Summit, Jason Slater, Chief of Digital Transformation and AI at UNIDO, stated: “AI+ drives public services forward. Building an effective digital government is not just about deploying technology, but about building inclusive, citizen-centered and interoperable system.”

During the summit, Saeed Xia, President of Huawei Global Public Services BU, launched the Huawei Global Intelligent Public Service Solution. He pointed out that the solution is built on the architecture of “1 digital foundation + 1 intelligent platform + N industry applications.” It aims to provide scenario-centric, efficient, and high-quality public services by quickly orchestrating service items, integrating capabilities, and streamlining processes. In addition, it stays business- and data-driven to build convenient and high-quality data services, fueling innovation. Ultimately, this solution creates an intelligent service system featuring “Chat-to-Process” capabilities, smart decision-making, and efficient handling.

Chomparee Chompurat, Deputy Permanent Secretary of Thailand’s MDES, stated: “Thailand is accelerating its transition to an AI-enabled intelligent government by leveraging robust ‘Cloud First’ infrastructure, responsible AI integration, and global public-private partnerships to deliver secure, citizen-centric services and position the nation as a trusted ASEAN digital hub.”

During the event, Huawei GPSD held a National Foundation Model Roundtable, focusing on core topics such as AI-enabled national intelligent transformation and AI DC construction. Over 20 government and industry experts from Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa gathered at the roundtable and had in-depth exchanges. Huawei shared its experience in foundation model application and AI infrastructure construction, and engaged with various parties to explore top-level design and localized implementation path for intelligent transformation.

During the open speech session, Yu Jinxiao, Overseas Technical Director of Linewell, mentioned in his speech that in “AI+ One-Stop Public Services,” advanced AI technology has propelled a qualitative leap from “functional and accessible” to “effortless and intelligent.” This significantly streamlines workflows, reducing form-filling time by 80% to 90% while boosting efficiency by 2 to 3 times through a “Chat-to-Process” intelligent interaction model.

Yang Xuqing, CTO of iSSTech, emphasized that future smart cities will build a “City Super App Portal” based on an AI hub, the super app for city governance can efficiently address challenges such as flood control. The super app for economic development can reduce the project cycle by 50%. The super app for public services can make business and civic affairs as simple and intuitive as chatting.

Currently, AI is profoundly reshaping the underlying logic of global public services and digital and intelligent city development. Moving forward, Huawei will continue to deeply cultivate the digital technology foundation and strengthen collaborative synergy with partners, jointly empowering the onset of full-scale intelligence for global public services and city governance.
