MIAMI, FL — October 9, 2025 — TIME has named HOPE Hydration to its list of the Best Inventions of 2025: Special Mentions, recognizing the company’s flagship HydroStation for its design, technology, and social impact.

HOPE Hydration is redefining how people access and experience water in public spaces. Its connected water stations combine advanced filtration, real-time data insights, and digital media displays that enable brands to engage audiences while providing free, clean hydration across airports, stadiums, and major city centers.

“Water can be more than a utility — it can be a platform for better design, smarter technology, and meaningful connection,” said Dave Tigue, Co-founder and Head of Hardware of HOPE Hydration. “Being recognized by TIME is an incredible honor for our team and partners who believed in the mission from day one.”
