Milestone-gated accelerator funds two AI startups with pre-seed commitments — the first founders selected through its Have Fund hacker house.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, June 17th 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Zemyth, a milestone-gated accelerator for early-stage technical founders, today announced its first accelerator cohort, backing two startups — Afferens and Schism — with milestone-based pre-seed funding. The two companies are the first founders selected through Zemyth’s Have Fund 1.0 hacker house, a four-day, four-night intensive held in May 2026.

Rather than a single shared round, the announcement marks a cohort: each startup is funded independently as a separate pre-seed commitment, with capital released against an execution calendar rather than disbursed upfront. The structure reflects Zemyth’s thesis that early-stage capital should follow demonstrated progress.

“Milestone-gated capital means the structure does the diligence itself — so we can back founders earlier and easier than anyone else,” said Rain Chai , Co-founder of Zemyth and Tech Director of ZEMU VC, the venture firm backing the program. “Faris and Hiromasa shipped working products in days; that’s the bar.”

Afferens: verified physical-world context for AI agents

Afferens, founded by Faris Irfan (Founder & CEO), is building a hardware-agnostic, MCP-native API that gives AI agents verified physical-world context — starting with vision, with spatial, acoustic and environmental rolling out — before they act. Unlike perception tools that are input-only, Afferens is built with an actuation layer that lets agents send commands back to physical nodes, and is designed to install directly inside AI development environments such as Claude Code, Cursor and Windsurf.

 “AI agents are getting smarter, but they’re still acting half-blind to the physical world,” said Faris Irfan, Founder & CEO of Afferens. “We give them verified context — what’s actually there — before they make a move. Zemyth’s milestone model fits how we build: prove it, then scale it.”

Schism: a cross-domain divergence engine for independent traders

Schism, founded by Hiromasa (Founder), is a cross-domain divergence engine for independent traders. It flags, in real time, when independent signals — Polymarket odds, on-chain flow, social sentiment, centralized-exchange positioning, equities and macro — disagree on the same narrative, helping traders spot mispricing before price moves. Where most tools each track a single source, Schism is built to watch all six at once and surface the moment they conflict, building a proprietary labeled dataset of how cross-domain divergences resolve.
“Edge comes from seeing disagreement before the market resolves it,” said Hiromasa, Founder   of Schism. “Schism watches six domains at once and surfaces the moment they diverge.  Zemyth backed the idea when it was still a prototype — that early conviction is rare.”

About the cohort and the Have Fund model

Both founders were selected through Have Fund 1.0, Zemyth’s flagship hacker house — a four-day, four-night intensive in May 2026 that brought founders together to turn raw ideas into fundable, working products. The inaugural edition selected six founders, with two — Afferens and Schism — advancing to pre-seed funding.

Zemyth runs a six-month, milestone-gated program for pre-seed founders at the proof-of-concept and MVP stage across Southeast Asia, structured around outcome-based milestones — releasing capital against an execution calendar rather than upfront.

About Zemyth

Zemyth is a milestone-gated accelerator backing early-stage technical founders across Southeast Asia, supported by ZEMU VC. Through a six-month program, Zemyth provides pre-seed capital in outcome-based stages — released against an execution calendar rather than upfront — alongside hands-on support through its Have Fund hacker house.

On track for 300% revenue growth in 2026 and now serving its third Shark Tank-featured brand, ShipSquared is scaling fast across its Dallas and Shenzhen operations, with active investment in robotics and AI-driven fulfillment to meet surging demand from high-growth and enterprise DTC brands.

United States, 17th Jun 2026 — ShipSquared, a Dallas-based fulfillment and supply chain partner for ecommerce brands, today announced a period of rapid growth that has moved the company from emerging challenger to one of the most closely watched fulfillment operators serving founder-led consumer brands.

The company is on pace for 300% year-over-year revenue growth in 2026, a trajectory driven by demand from DTC companies that have outgrown basic pick, pack, and ship providers and need a partner built to scale with them.

That momentum was underscored by the company’s newest partnership with a consumer brand featured on Shark Tank, now the third Shark Tank-featured brand to join ShipSquared’s roster. The milestone marks another major step in the company’s move upmarket and its growing ability to support larger, established brands. It also reflects a clear pattern in ShipSquared’s growth: founder-led and nationally recognized consumer brands choosing the company specifically because its leadership has lived the operational challenges of scaling a product from launch to national distribution.

“We built ShipSquared for the brands we used to be,” said Zak Jones, founder and CEO of ShipSquared. “I spent years manufacturing my own product in Shenzhen and selling it on Shark Tank, so I know exactly where fulfillment breaks a growing brand. Founders are coming to us because we have lived their problem, and because we can move a product from a factory floor in China to a customer’s doorstep without the handoffs falling apart along the way.”

ShipSquared operates across two continents, pairing fulfillment and freight operations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area with sourcing and supply chain infrastructure in Shenzhen, China. That footprint lets the company support brands through the full lifecycle of a product, from sourcing and manufacturing oversight to FBA prep, freight forwarding, international fulfillment, and direct-to-consumer shipping.

Investing in the next generation of fulfillment

A central part of ShipSquared’s growth strategy is its investment in automation and robotics, an initiative led by co-founder and COO Brent Raymond. The company is integrating robotics and AI-assisted workflows into its operations with the goal of improving accuracy, throughput, and inventory visibility as order volumes climb.

“The next decade of fulfillment will be won by companies that operate like technology businesses, not warehouses,” said Steven Zuckerman, Senior Advisor to ShipSquared. “ShipSquared is building that way from the start, layering robotics, automation, and data directly into operations so that brands get a level of accuracy and speed that manual fulfillment simply cannot match. That is what separates an intelligent operating partner from a building full of shelves.”

The company sees automation not as a replacement for service, but as the foundation that makes hands-on partnership possible at scale, freeing its team to focus on the exceptions, the relationships, and the growth planning that brands actually need from a supply chain partner.

“Growth is the easy part to celebrate, but what I care about is what sits behind it,” Jones said. “Every brand we add is a founder trusting us with their customer relationship. Our job is to protect that, scale it, and hand them a supply chain that becomes an advantage instead of a ceiling on how fast they can grow.”

As ecommerce continues to consolidate around operators that can combine technology with genuine service, ShipSquared believes its growth signals a broader shift in what brands expect from a fulfillment partner.

“Great marketing can drive the first sale,” Jones said. “Fulfillment is what decides whether that customer ever comes back. We want to be the reason they do.”

About ShipSquared

ShipSquared is a Dallas-based fulfillment and supply chain partner for ecommerce brands. The company provides DTC fulfillment, FBA prep, freight forwarding, sourcing support, and international fulfillment solutions designed to help growing brands scale with more accuracy, visibility, and operational support. With operations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area and Shenzhen, China, ShipSquared works with founder-led brands, ecommerce operators, and high-growth consumer product companies looking for a fulfillment partner that can support the next stage of growth.

Veteran fund and portfolio manager opens a select advisory practice focused on disciplined, long-term wealth strategy for clients across the United States and Canada

WASHINGTON, United States — June 23, 2026 — Austin Glenn Smith, Ph.D., a senior fund and portfolio manager with more than 30 years of institutional experience, has launched a private financial consulting practice serving a limited number of individuals and families across the United States and Canada. The move marks his transition from full-time fund management to one-on-one advisory work centered on portfolio strategy, retirement and wealth planning, and disciplined, long-term investing.

For three decades, Smith managed institutional portfolios through multiple market cycles, holding senior roles with the Vanguard Management Group and Expert Edge Investments. His new practice brings that institutional rigor to private clients who want experienced, independent guidance rather than off-the-shelf products.

“After thirty years of managing capital for institutions, I wanted to bring that same discipline to a smaller number of people I can serve directly,” said Smith. “Consulting is not a step back; it is a more deliberate way to add value.”

The practice is intentionally small. Smith works with a select group of clients at a time, a structure he says allows for the depth and continuity that long-term financial decisions require. Engagements focus on building diversified, risk-aware portfolios; structuring income and legacy strategies for retirement; providing an experienced second opinion on existing holdings; and helping clients understand the reasoning behind every decision.

That emphasis on judgment over volume reflects a philosophy Smith has carried throughout his career. “Markets reward patience and punish noise,” he said. “My role is to help clients hold a steady course when it matters most.”

Smith’s international background informs his approach. Born in Oslo, Norway, and educated across the United States, Germany, Scotland, and Australia, he earned a Master’s degree from Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen and a Ph.D. in Australia before entering finance in the early 1990s. He credits an early period working alongside renowned author and investor Robert Kiyosaki with shaping his conviction that financial education and disciplined strategy, not speculation, build lasting wealth.

After years of trans-continental work between the United States and Canada, Smith settled in Washington, where his consulting practice is now based. He describes the shift as an evolution rather than a retirement, a chance to apply decades of experience at a more personal scale.

Brendale 4500, Queensland, Australia, 17th Jun 2026 – Cafe Solutions, a respected supplier of café and restaurant furniture across Australia, has showcased a selection of marble table tops designed for use in contemporary hospitality venues. The addition reinforces the company’s ongoing development of its furniture catalogue with options that address both the practical and aesthetic requirements of commercial dining environments throughout the country.

The marble table tops are available in a range of sizes and finishes suited to cafés, restaurants, bars, and other food service establishments seeking to incorporate natural stone surfaces into their interior design. Marble has maintained a consistent presence in hospitality fit-outs due to its distinct visual characteristics, including natural veining patterns that give each table top an individual appearance. The material’s longstanding association with refined dining and contemporary design has contributed to sustained interest from venue operators across a variety of Australian hospitality settings.

Cafe Solutions has noted that the decision to showcase these table tops reflects ongoing enquiries from commercial operators who are seeking furniture elements that contribute to the visual identity of their venues. As hospitality spaces increasingly compete on atmosphere and design presentation alongside food and service quality, the selection of table surfaces has become a notable consideration in venue planning and refurbishment projects. The company’s product range is structured to provide commercial buyers with a variety of material options, enabling operators to match furniture selections to the broader design direction of their establishments.

“The interest in marble table tops has been consistent across a range of hospitality settings, from inner-city cafés to established restaurant venues,” said Russell Crawford, Spokesperson for Cafe Solutions. “Operators are making deliberate choices about the surfaces and materials used throughout their spaces, and natural stone remains a popular option for businesses aiming to create a particular atmosphere for their patrons.”

In practical terms, marble table tops require consideration regarding maintenance and suitability for specific service environments. The surfaces are suited to venues where presentation and material quality are priorities, and operators are advised to consider factors such as sealing, cleaning requirements, and the type of service offered when selecting table top materials. Cafe Solutions provides product information to assist commercial buyers in assessing the suitability of marble surfaces for their particular operational context, including guidance on care and long-term upkeep in high-traffic commercial settings.

The company supplies its furniture range with fast shipping across Australia, enabling hospitality operators to receive products within timeframes that support renovation schedules, new venue openings, and seasonal refurbishments. Stock availability is maintained across the product range to facilitate the timely fulfilment of orders, including bulk procurement for larger commercial projects and multi-site hospitality groups coordinating furniture purchases across several locations simultaneously.

“The company’s approach going forward is to continue broadening the selection of table top materials and furniture options available to the hospitality sector,” said Crawford. “There is a clear pattern of demand for furniture that allows venue operators to distinguish their spaces visually, and the intention is to ensure the catalogue reflects the range of materials and styles that commercial buyers are actively seeking.”

Cafe Solutions, based in Brendale, Queensland, supplies a comprehensive range of furniture for cafés, restaurants, and hospitality venues throughout Australia. The company’s product catalogue includes chairs, tables, bar stools, benches, and commercial sinks, with options designed for both indoor and outdoor settings. The business serves commercial operators across the country through its established distribution network and maintains stock availability to support timely order fulfilment.

CampaignTrackly Launches “UTM Campaign Tracking Expert” Certification to Address GA4 Attribution Gaps and AI Data Quality ChallengesNew vendor-neutral, 85-question practitioner certification helps marketing professionals validate their expertise in campaign tracking, UTM governance, analytics readiness, and tracking-link quality control.

United States, 17th Jun 2026— CampaignTrackly, a provider of enterprise data governance and campaign tracking solutions, today announced the launch of its official UTM Campaign Tracking Expert (UCTE) certification. The technical, vendor-neutral credential is designed for marketing operations professionals, analytics leaders, demand generation specialists, campaign managers, and digital marketers who need to build, validate, and troubleshoot campaign tracking links with confidence.

Why a Technical Competency  Assessment in UTM Campaign Tracking  is Needed

In today’s decentralized digital marketing environment, campaign attribution depends heavily on the quality and consistency of tracking links. Yet many organizations still rely on disconnected spreadsheet templates, manual URL builders, agency-specific naming conventions, and regional tracking processes to generate campaign URLs.

Growing Data Quality Issues

The result is a growing data quality problem. When tracking parameters are inconsistent, incomplete, or incorrectly structured, campaign performance can be misclassified in Google Analytics 4 (GA4), including in “Unassigned” or “Direct” traffic reports. This reduces reporting confidence, limits visibility into ROI, and can lead to campaign decisions based on incomplete attribution data.

With the Advent of AI Unsolved Campaign Data Problems Will Only Deepen

These challenges are becoming more important as AI tools enter marketing operations. As teams begin using AI to generate campaign names, tracking links, and custom parameters at scale, organizations need stronger governance around how those components are structured, validated, and deployed. Without a shared taxonomy and quality-control framework, automation can quickly multiply inconsistent tracking data across channels.

“Many organizations still treat UTM tracking as a routine administrative task, when it is actually the foundation for reliable marketing intelligence,” said Milena Mitova, Founder of CampaignTrackly. “When tracking query strings are created across disconnected processes, data confidence drops. With AI now accelerating campaign creation, we launched this certification to help establish a practical standard for validating tracking expertise.”

The UTM Tracking Technical Evaluation Measures Campaign Data and Governance Expertise

The UTM Campaign Tracking Expert certification is an independent practitioner assessment designed to validate a professional’s understanding of campaign tracking data integrity, analytics readiness, and tracking-link quality control.

The examination consists of 85 practical, scenario-based questions that must be completed within a 75-minute window. To earn the official certificate, candidates must achieve a passing score of 75% or higher.

What is included in the Test Evaluation

Rather than testing only basic UTM definitions, the certification evaluates a broad range of practical campaign tracking skills. Candidates are tested on their ability to understand the difference between URLs, URL parameters, and UTM parameters; structure tracking links correctly; use core UTM fields such as utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, and utm_id; and recognize common mistakes that can create broken links, fragmented reports, or GA4 attribution issues.

Real-world use cases and Tracking Scenarios

The assessment also covers real-world tracking scenarios, including campaign naming conventions, marketing taxonomy, paid media tracking macros, custom URL parameters, separator consistency, hashtag and anchor-link handling, GA4 reporting risks, and pre-launch quality control. The goal is to verify that candidates understand not only what tracking parameters are, but how to apply them correctly across modern campaign operations.

Special Limited-Time Launch Initiative

To introduce these data accuracy standards to the digital marketing community, CampaignTrackly is waiving the testing fee for early adopters. The first 15 qualified marketing professionals to register can attempt the exam free of charge.

Candidates who pass the exam receive a verifiable Professional Certificate of Achievement issued by Leafwire Digital, Inc. and CampaignTrackly.com, suitable for LinkedIn profiles, resumes, and internal professional development records.

Brendale 4500, Queensland, Australia, 17th Jun 2026 – Cafe Solutions, a well-known supplier of café and restaurant furniture across Australia, has introduced a range of commercial seating options featuring durable stackable stools designed for hospitality and food service environments. The announcement reflects the company’s continued development of its furniture catalogue, which already includes chairs, tables, bar stools, benches, and sinks suited to cafés, restaurants, bars, and similar commercial venues throughout the country.

The stackable stools have been developed to address the practical requirements of businesses operating in high-traffic settings where space management and furniture durability are ongoing operational considerations. Stackable seating allows venue operators to rearrange floor layouts efficiently, store furniture during off-peak hours, and adapt to changing customer volumes throughout the day. The design is intended to serve both indoor and outdoor applications, accommodating the varied demands of Australian hospitality businesses that require furniture capable of performing consistently across different environments and seasonal conditions.

Cafe Solutions has indicated that the introduction of these seating options follows consistent demand from commercial operators seeking furniture that balances daily functionality with aesthetic suitability for customer-facing spaces. The stools are constructed using materials selected for their resistance to regular wear, weight-bearing demands, and prolonged exposure to different environmental conditions. This material consideration is particularly relevant for venues with outdoor dining areas, where furniture is routinely subject to sun exposure, moisture, and temperature fluctuations throughout the year.

“The addition of these stackable stools reflects the feedback received from café and restaurant operators who need seating that performs reliably in busy commercial settings,” said Russell Crawford, Spokesperson for Cafe Solutions. “Hospitality venues face distinct challenges when it comes to furniture — it needs to withstand constant use, remain easy to move and store, and still contribute to the overall look and feel of the space.”

The stackable design offers a practical advantage for venues operating with limited storage capacity or shared-use areas. By allowing stools to be stacked vertically, operators can reclaim floor space during cleaning, private events, or seasonal transitions when certain sections of a venue may need to be cleared or reconfigured at short notice. This functionality is particularly relevant for businesses that host functions, cater to variable crowd sizes, or adjust their seating arrangements on a regular basis throughout the week. The stools are available in configurations suited to bar-height counters, high tables, and standard service areas, providing flexibility across different venue layouts and operational needs.

Cafe Solutions distributes its products with fast shipping across Australia, a service that enables commercial operators to receive furniture without extended delays that may otherwise affect opening schedules, renovation timelines, or seasonal preparation. The company maintains stock availability across its product range to support the timely fulfilment of both individual and bulk orders, a consideration that is particularly important for larger commercial fit-outs and multi-venue hospitality operators coordinating furniture procurement across several locations.

“Moving forward, the focus remains on expanding the range of commercial furniture options available to hospitality businesses across Australia,” said Crawford. “There is continued interest in seating and furniture that meets commercial-grade durability standards while remaining practical for everyday operations, and the company intends to respond to that demand with further additions to its product range in the months ahead.”

Sigma Node Technologies, Inc. is preparing to launch Sigma Node Network, a decentralized AI infrastructure platform focused on AI data access, distributed bandwidth, data verification, and trusted computing.

Dallas, Texas, United States, 17th Jun 2026 – Sigma Node Technologies, Inc. is preparing to launch ΣNode-Network, a decentralized AI infrastructure platform designed to connect underutilized bandwidth resources with the growing demand for distributed data access, data verification, and trusted computing in the AI era.

As artificial intelligence models and AI agents continue to evolve, the need for real-time, diverse, and reliable data infrastructure is increasing rapidly. However, traditional data acquisition systems often face challenges such as high costs, limited access, delayed updates, and centralized bottlenecks.

ΣNode-Network aims to address these challenges by building a distributed bandwidth-sharing platform that connects individual devices, enterprise endpoints, and edge nodes into a coordinated network. Through this model, unused bandwidth resources can be utilized to support distributed data collection, data transmission, and verification-related services for AI companies, AI agents, and data-driven applications.

The platform is built around the concept of “device as node.” By allowing idle devices such as computers, routers, and other connected hardware to participate in a decentralized bandwidth network, ΣNode-Network seeks to make AI infrastructure more flexible, scalable, and accessible.

This distributed approach may help improve data availability, reduce infrastructure costs, and enhance system resilience by moving certain data-related processes closer to edge environments. Potential use cases include AI data access, data validation, real-time data transmission, edge infrastructure, and decentralized network services.

Security and user control are also key parts of the ΣNode-Network design. The platform is expected to operate through user-authorized participation, encrypted transmission, access control, and transparent usage mechanisms, helping ensure that network resources are used in a controlled and secure environment.

“AI infrastructure should not be limited to a small number of centralized providers. With ΣNode-Network, we aim to build a more open and distributed infrastructure layer where devices can contribute to the next generation of AI data networks.”

— Alvin Edith, representative of Sigma Node Technologies, Inc.

By combining distributed bandwidth resources with AI infrastructure demand, ΣNode-Network intends to support a more open, participatory, and sustainable model for the future of digital infrastructure.
