    Show airing Sept. 27 on Fox Business spotlights businesses that simplify property management, provide data management and AI services, fight tax cases and unlock federal health care funds.

    NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK / ACCESS Newswire / September 26, 2025 / Innovators who make property management easy and profitable, a pioneering cloud and AI solutions provider, an entrepreneur who went from being homeless to running a $50M enterprise, and consultants who help hospitals find financial stability from a federal program will be featured in the latest episode of “ Trending Today,” on Saturday, September 27 at 5:30 p.m. EST on Fox Business.

    “Trending Today” is an award-winning TV series that for 13 years has profiled the inventors, innovators, and business visionaries who are inspiring change in business sectors from finance and health to retail and luxury lifestyles.

    The September 27 episode will include segments on TurboTenant, creators of a software platform for landlords; Coretek, a cloud managed services provider and digital transformation leader; Scott Allen Curley, co-founder of FinishLine Tax Solutions; and Ravin Consultants, experts in managing federal 340B programs.

    “At ‘Trending Today,’ we are committed to telling the stories of trailblazing entrepreneurs and dynamic businesses that are both transforming their industries and improving the lives of others,” said Liz Plummer, the show’s executive producer.

    TurboTenant
    With more than 800,000 users across the country, TurboTenant has taken on a transformational role in the rental industry, with its innovation, education, and user-friendly technology.

    TurboTenant has developed an all-in-one platform for the everyday landlord that makes renting out property less intimidating, less time-consuming, and more profitable. The platform helps independent property owners to find tenants and manage those relationships, with tools for creating leases, drafting listings, and managing finances.

    “Our mission is to make property management feel empowering, not overwhelming,” said Seamus Nally, chief executive officer of TurboTenant. “With AI, automation, and step-by-step guidance, we help landlords confidently say ‘I’ve got this’ from day one.”

    Coretek
    Over the past 20 years, Coretek has evolved from a regional systems integrator to a nationally recognized digital transformation leader and is now one of the nation’s leading Microsoft Azure Expert Managed Service Providers (MSP).

    Coretek invested heavily in artificial intelligence in 2022 and specializes in helping its clients use AI to improve quality and reduce costs.

For manufacturing, we emphasize automation and supply chain optimization. And for retail, we enhance customer engagement and the customer experience.”

    FinishLine Tax Solutions
    FinishLine Tax Solutions helps people dealing with issues such as audits and back taxes, providing a team of licensed enrolled agents, accountants, tax attorneys and other professionals to represent clients and solve their tax problems.

    It’s a service with meaning for co-founder Scott Allen Curley, who knows what it’s like to be the underdog facing daunting challenges. He documented his journey to redemption in his book “Absolution: The Dark Path to Light.” He’s now spreading his inspiring story and proven success strategies via CommitCon 2026, a conference planned for January 2026 and designed for entrepreneurs, leaders, and changemakers who want to take bold action and turn ideas into results.

    “My brand isn’t built on theory. It’s built on scars, setbacks, and comebacks,” Curley said. “From addiction, prison, and homelessness to leading one of the largest tax litigation firms in the country, I’ve proven that commitment beats circumstance. What I stand for, and what my companies stand for, is proof that no past is too dark to create a future worth fighting for.”

    Ravin Consultants
    The federal 340B Drug Pricing Program allows hospitals and health centers to purchase medications at significant discounts, allowing them to offset costs and expand care for uninsured and low-income patients. However, the complex program can create financial pitfalls for those administering it.

    Ravin Consultants’ unique methodology and proprietary data dashboard has helped dozens of healthcare organizations get started with the 340B program and has helped increase the revenue of already existing programs by up to 400%. The firm also advises organizations on how to reinvest these hidden savings into meaningful community health initiatives. Ravin is now expanding into clinic development, credentialing and real-time analytics.

    “At Ravin Consultants, we believe healthcare organizations shouldn’t have to choose between doing good and staying financially strong,” said founder and CEO Jennifer Lockwood. “The 340B Program is more than a discount, it’s a lifeline. Our job is to help providers unlock every dollar they’re entitled to and then turn those savings into a real, measurable impact for the communities they serve.”

    The four companies appearing in the September 27 episode on Fox Business also will soon be featured in the “Trending Today” podcast, available on all major podcast platforms, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podbean, and Overcast.

    IRS Cracks Down on Travel and Meal Deductions – Clear Start Tax Explains What Expenses Won’t Fly in 2025

    Stricter IRS rules on business write-offs expected to impact self-employed workers, freelancers, and small businesses this tax season

    IRVINE, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / September 26, 2025 / The IRS is set to tighten its review of travel and meal deductions in 2025, warning taxpayers that inflated or unsupported write-offs could trigger audits or penalties. Experts say the move reflects the agency’s broader effort to curb abuse of business expense claims – an area often cited as a red flag in small business tax filings.

    “Travel and meal deductions remain some of the most misunderstood tax write-offs,” said a spokesperson for Clear Start Tax. “The IRS is zeroing in on vague or excessive claims, especially those that look more like personal perks than legitimate business expenses.”

    According to Clear Start Tax, expenses such as first-class airfare for non-business companions, extravagant meals without documented business purposes, or vacation travel disguised as client meetings are likely to face tougher scrutiny. “If you can’t show a clear business connection and keep proper records, the deduction won’t hold up,” the spokesperson added.

    Tax professionals also warn that the IRS’s expanded use of technology makes it easier to spot questionable claims. “The agency is leveraging data analytics to flag patterns in spending that don’t align with industry norms,” Clear Start Tax explained. “Taxpayers who stretch the rules should expect closer examination in 2025.”

    For small business owners and freelancers, the message is clear: document carefully, separate personal and business expenses, and stay within IRS guidelines to avoid costly surprises.

    By answering a few simple questions, taxpayers can find out if they’re eligible for the IRS Fresh Start Program and take the first step toward resolving their tax debt.

    About Clear Start Tax
    Clear Start Tax is a national tax resolution firm dedicated to helping individuals and businesses address IRS challenges, reduce tax debt, and stay compliant. With a team of experienced professionals, the firm provides guidance on audits, back taxes, and tax relief programs tailored to each client’s needs.

  • Gold Terra Announces New Drill Targets on the Campbell Shear North Extension on the Con Mine, Yellowknife, NWT

    Gold Terra Announces New Drill Targets on the Campbell Shear North Extension on the Con Mine, Yellowknife, NWT

    VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / September 26, 2025 / Gold Terra Resource Corp. (TSXV:YGT)(Frankfurt:TX0)(OTCQX:YGTFF) (“Gold Terra” or the “Company“) has completed its review of the Con Mine 2002 historical resources of 650,000 ounces of gold at between 11-12 g/t dated January 1st 2003 (see Note 1 further in this news release). Based on the review, selected priority targets have been established for the upcoming drilling program scheduled to start before year end 2025 that will focus on the past producing Campbell Shear (“CS”) structure. The goal of this drilling program is to confirm portions of the historical resources and investigate additional potential resources at lower cut-off grades, reflecting the current higher gold prices of today. This confirmation drilling could contribute to further increases to the current resource base of the Company prior to proceeding with economic studies.

    Gold Terra has identified numerous historical targets within the Con Mine underground infrastructure between 500 metres to 1000 metres below surface. The Con Mine produced a total of 6.1 Moz between 1938 and 2003 and closed at a time when gold price averaged US$ 340 per ounce and while using a cut-off grade (COG) of 10 g/t Au (Refer to the Oct. 21, 2022 Technical Report).

    The largest of these targets (see Figure 1 and 1A) is an interpreted 1.4 kilometre long Northern Extension of the Campbell Shear structure between section 6600N and 8000N, and between 600 metres to 1,200 metres below surface, which was previously drilled in the 1990’s from underground stations between level 1900 and 2900 (580 metres and 885 metres).

    The proposed plan is to:

    • Drill at 100 metres spacing to confirm the underground historical drill results which extend for more than 1 kilometer north of the Con Mine.

    • Test three (3) other areas between 800 metres vertical to 1400 metres within the Con Mine main ore body that weren’t mined historically.

    • Test and In-fill drill in the Con Mine south area where the Company has already outlined a NI43-101 resource on the Yellorex and Yellorex North deposits (See Note 2 further in the press release- Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) dated September 2022). This drilling is intended to bring this area up to a Drill Indicated confidence level and increase the size of the Yellorex and Yellorex North zones which remained open along strike and plunge following the October 2022 NI43-101 mineral resource estimate.

    Chairman and CEO, Gerald Panneton, commented, “In this current gold price environment, we have reviewed over the summer many additional targets at the Con Mine well within reach of existing underground infrastructure. With gold price now well above US$3700/oz; this is a game changer. We have 100% access to a district-scale prospective land position one of the largest past-producing high-grade gold belts in Canada along the prolific Campbell Shear. Over the last few months, we have re-evaluated our options and are excited to start this drilling program which targets shallower gold mineralization along the past producing CS structure.”

    Following the completion of the 2025-2026 drilling program, the Company is planning to update its 2022 Mineral Resources Estimate (MRE) (See Note 2 further in this press release) which will include the new drilling results, a higher gold price and potentially a lower cut-off grade. It is anticipated that the updated MRE will be followed by a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).

    Under the CMO agreement, the Company has the right to acquire 100% of the CMO property from a subsidiary of Newmont Corporation, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions set out in the agreement, as reported in the Company’s news release dated November 22, 2021. Gold Terra’s option on the CMO with Newmont is until Nov 21, 2027, supporting ongoing CS drilling and potential resource growth.

    Figure 1 -Composite Long Section showing the location of the planned 2025-2026 drilling program:

    Figure 1A – North Extension Drilling Target Projected on the Historic Mine Stopes of the Con Mine:

    Notes:

    Note 1. Historical Estimate:

    The Con Mine closed in 2003 at a time when the gold price was around US$ 340 per ounce, with approximately 650,000 ounces at 11-12 g/t Au in historical mineral resources and reserves (See table below). The historical estimate was compiled and reported by Miramar Northern Mines Ltd. (MNML) during its operation and closure of the Con Mine in 2003. There are no known more recent estimates.

    Refer to the October 21, 2022 technical report, titled “Initial Mineral Resource Estimate for the CMO Property, Yellowknife City Gold Project, Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada” with an effective date of September 2, 2022, by Qualified Person, Allan Armitage, Ph. D., P. Geo., SGS Geological Services, which can be found on the Company’s website at https://www.goldterracorp.com and on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

    The Yellowknife Project has an extensive land position with over 836 square kilometres covering 70 kilometers of the CS and the previous exploration results indicate the potential to host multiple deposits. To date, the Yellowknife Project’s contiguous Northbelt Property has a March 2021 mineral resource estimate of 1,207,000 inferred ounces 15 km north of the Con Mine and the city of Yellowknife in 4 satellite deposits, with the Crestaurum open pit @ 6 g/t Au (see Gold Terra’s Oct. 21, 2022 Technical Report).

    For current resource estimates please refer to the October 21, 2022 technical report, titled “Initial Mineral Resource Estimate for the CMO Property, Yellowknife City Gold Project, Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada” with an effective date of September 2, 2022, by Qualified Person, Allan Armitage, Ph. D., P. Geo., SGS Geological Services, which can be found on the Company’s website at https://www.goldterracorp.com and on SEDAR at www.sedarplus.com.

    Gold Terra’s strategic land holdings covering an extensive mineralized system in the Yellowknife Gold Belt are shown in the figure below:

    The technical information contained in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Joseph Campbell, a Qualified Person as defined in National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects and Senior Technical Advisor for the Company.

    About Gold Terra

    The Yellowknife Project (YP) encompasses 836 sq. km of contiguous land immediately north, south and east of the City of Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories. Through a series of acquisitions, Gold Terra controls one of the six major high-grade gold camps in Canada. Being within 10 kilmetres of the City of Yellowknife, the YP is close to vital infrastructure, including all-season roads, air transportation, service providers, hydro-electric power, and skilled tradespeople. Gold Terra is currently focusing its drilling on the prolific Campbell Shear, where approximately 14 Moz of gold has been produced, and most recently on the Con Mine Option (CMO) Property, immediately south of the past producing Con Mine which produced 6.1 Moz between the Con, Rycon, and Campbell shear structures (1938-2003) (refer to Gold Terra Oct 21, 2022, Technical Report).

    The YP and CMO properties lie on the prolific Yellowknife greenstone belt, covering nearly 70 kilometres of strike length along the main mineralized shear system that hosts the former-producing high-grade Con and Giant gold mines. The Company’s exploration programs have successfully identified significant zones of gold mineralization and multiple targets that remain to be tested which reinforces the Company’s objective of re-establishing Yellowknife as one of the premier gold mining districts in Canada.

    Information Concerning Estimates of Mineral Resources

    Mineral Resources that are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Therefore, investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an Inferred Mineral Resource could ever be mined economically. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of “Measured Mineral Resources,” “Indicated Mineral Resources,” or “Inferred Mineral Resources” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. The Mineral Resource estimates contained herein may be subject to legal, political, environmental or other risks that could materially affect the potential development of such mineral resources. Refer to the Technical Report, once filed, for more information with respect to the key assumptions, parameters, methods and risks of determination associated with the foregoing.

    Cautionary Note Regarding Historical Estimates and Newmont Corporation’s Involvement

    The historical estimate referenced in this press release, which was carried out during the operation and closure of the Con Mine by Newmont’s predecessor company (2003), are provided for historic context only. These estimates do not reflect Newmont’s current resource base. Gold Terra is solely responsible for the exploration and verification of these resources, and any updated estimates will need to comply with current industry standards. Newmont Corporation is not responsible for Gold Terra’s exploration activities, nor for any resource updates or future developments related to the CMO Property.

    Cautionary Note to United States Investors

    The Company prepares its disclosure in accordance with the requirements of securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. Terms relating to Mineral Resources in this news release are defined in accordance with NI 43-101 under the guidelines set out in CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum Council on May 19, 2014, as amended (“CIM Standards”). The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted amendments effective February 25, 2019 (the “SEC Modernization Rules”) to its disclosure rules to modernize the mineral property disclosure requirements for issuers whose securities are registered with the SEC under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As a result of the adoption of the SEC Modernization Rules, the SEC will now recognize estimates of “Measured Mineral Resources”, “Indicated Mineral Resources” and “Inferred Mineral Resources”, which are defined in substantially similar terms to the corresponding CIM Standards. In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of “Proven Mineral Reserves” and “Probable Mineral Reserves” to be substantially similar to the corresponding CIM Standards.

  • Counterfeiters Beware: CETI and SMX Team Up to Terminate Fake Fashion (NASDAQ:SMX)

    Counterfeiters Beware: CETI and SMX Team Up to Terminate Fake Fashion (NASDAQ:SMX)

    NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 26, 2025 / For decades, counterfeiters have thrived in the shadows, hijacking fashion’s prestige and siphoning billions from an industry built on brand, trust, and craftsmanship. Fake bags, knockoff sneakers, and copycat fabrics have been smuggled into every corner of commerce, draining value from labels that spend fortunes building reputations. The damage isn’t just economic. It erodes consumer trust, dilutes sustainability claims, and turns e-commerce platforms into digital flea markets where fraud masquerades as fashion. The scale is staggering, with trillions lost as of 2025 and counterfeiters adapting faster than the safeguards designed to stop them.

    That ends now. This announced agreement between SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) and CETI, one of Europe’s most respected textile research centers, represents the technological revolution for an industry that has been hijacked for too long. Instead of relying on logos, tags, or human judgment, SMX’s molecular fingerprinting system embeds authenticity at the material level, while CETI’s pilot lines provide the industrial validation to scale it across the European market.

    Together, they are moving toward a world where every fiber has a digital passport and every recycled material carries verifiable value. What counterfeiters have always exploited is the lack of transparency. SMX and CETI are replacing opacity with proof.

    CETI and SMX Become the Terminators

    Lille, France, is now set to become the launch pad for Europe’s fight against fakes. By fusing molecular-level identity with blockchain-backed traceability, this collaboration shortens the distance between lab breakthroughs and market adoption. That means high-value recycled fabrics can flow into luxury fashion and sportswear at commercial speed. It means tamper-proof data creates finance-ready transparency, where sustainability claims finally unlock economic benefits. And it means the ecosystem multiplier effect kicks in as more brands, more regulators, and more industries rally around the same technology. Proof becomes the universal language, and Europe has just declared it will speak fluently.

    The counterfeit problem has always been bigger than the boutiques on the Champs-Élysées. E-commerce platforms like eBay deserve credit for putting stringent rules in place against fake listings and working to protect buyers. The intent is there, but the reality is that rules are broken every day, and counterfeiters still slip through the cracks.

    That’s the weakness counterfeiters exploit, because human graders are left squinting at photos or running fingers over better fakes, while consumers gamble on whether a $150 “new with tags” Coach bag is a steal or a scam. Imagine swapping human guesswork for scanners running SMX’s traceability markers. Authentication becomes instant. Proof arrives in seconds. eBay could transform from counterfeit watchdog to counterfeit executioner, leading the revolution that finally shuts the listing door on knockoffs.

    Protecting Brand Legacy

    Luxury houses like Coach, Prada, Hermès, and others built their brands on scarcity and quality. Counterfeiters turned that into a joke, flooding the market with imitations that undercut value. The SMX-CETI model restores the natural order. A bag, suit, or silk scarf or tie isn’t real because someone says it is. It’s real because the fibers themselves can prove it, backed by digital passports that regulators can verify, financiers can monetize, and consumers can trust. For the first time, counterfeiting is on defense, forced to fight technology it cannot mimic.

    This SMX-CETI alliance is more than a collaboration. It is the industrial validation of an entirely new economy, one where circularity, recycling, and authenticity are not slogans but measurable realities. Counterfeiters had their run. They turned loopholes into empires. But the days of flooding the market with fraudulent luxury are over. Proof is now currency. Europe’s fashion industry is setting the new standard, and with SMX and CETI providing the tools, counterfeiters will soon run out of places to peddle their nonsense, including the city sidewalk tables that once passed off those “luxury product deals of a lifetime.”

    About SMX

    As global businesses face new and complex challenges relating to carbon neutrality and meeting new governmental and regional regulations and standards, SMX is able to offer players along the value chain access to its marking, tracking, measuring and digital platform technology to transition more successfully to a low-carbon economy.

    Forward-Looking Statements

    The information in this press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements in this press release may include, for example: matters relating to the Company’s fight against abusive and possibly illegal trading tactics against the Company’s stock; successful launch and implementation of SMX’s joint projects with manufacturers and other supply chain participants of gold, steel, rubber and other materials; changes in SMX’s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans; SMX’s ability to develop and launch new products and services, including its planned Plastic Cycle Token; SMX’s ability to successfully and efficiently integrate future expansion plans and opportunities; SMX’s ability to grow its business in a cost-effective manner; SMX’s product development timeline and estimated research and development costs; the implementation, market acceptance and success of SMX’s business model; developments and projections relating to SMX’s competitors and industry; and SMX’s approach and goals with respect to technology. These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this press release, and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing views as of any subsequent date, and no obligation is undertaken to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include: the ability to maintain the listing of the Company’s shares on Nasdaq; changes in applicable laws or regulations; any lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on SMX’s business; the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations, and identify and realize additional opportunities; the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industry in which SMX operates; the risk that SMX and its current and future collaborators are unable to successfully develop and commercialize SMX’s products or services, or experience significant delays in doing so; the risk that the Company may never achieve or sustain profitability; the risk that the Company will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all; the risk that the Company experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations; the risk that third-party suppliers and manufacturers are not able to fully and timely meet their obligations; the risk that SMX is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property; the possibility that SMX may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and other risks and uncertainties described in SMX’s filings from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

  • CFO Janice Delcid and Epique Realty Win Most Innovative Finalists in Three Categories for the 2025 Stevie(R) Awards for Women in Business

    CFO Janice Delcid and Epique Realty Win Most Innovative Finalists in Three Categories for the 2025 Stevie(R) Awards for Women in Business

    Women Around the World To Be Recognized at Event in New York

    HOUSTON, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / September 25, 2025 / Epique Realty is proud to announce it has won three finalist nominations in the 22nd annual Stevie® Awards for Women in Business. Co-Founder and CFO Janice Delcid is a finalist for Most Innovative Woman of the Year – Technology, while Epique Realty is a finalist for both Most Innovative Company of the Year and Achievement in Tech Innovation.

    The Stevie® Awards for Women in Business are the world’s premier business awards, honoring the achievements of women executives, entrepreneurs, and the organizations they run. Finalists were selected from over 1,500 entries from 48 nations.

    “Now in its 22nd year, the Stevie Awards for Women in Business attracted an exceptional range of nominations,” said Maggie Miller, president of the Stevie Awards. ” We are continually inspired by how meaningful it is for women to receive a Stevie Award and the lasting impact it can have on their careers and organizations. We extend our congratulations to all of this year’s Finalists and look forward to announcing the final award placements on November 10.”

    Janice’s influence begins with the personal way she marshals thousands of agents. For Janice, leadership is not about top-down directives; it’s about connection. She views every agent as an extension of her own family, a belief she puts into action through personal attention and a commitment to lifetime mentorship.

    Beyond the numbers, her influence has transformed the company’s social impact. She was instrumental in launching key philanthropic initiatives, including a national drive to deliver 10,000 backpacks to children in need and the creation of NEMO, an agent-led disaster relief team. Through these achievements, Janice has proven that a CFO’s role can be redefined to build not just a profitable company, but a compassionate and thriving community.

    The three finalist nominations are a powerful acknowledgment of Epique’s transformative impact on the real estate industry.

    “I am deeply honored to be named a finalist among such inspiring women,” said Janice Delcid, Co-Founder and CFO. “This recognition is a reflection of the entire Epique family and our shared mission to lead with compassion and innovation. We are proving every day that a financial strategy rooted in generosity is the most powerful way to build a thriving, supportive community.

    “These nominations validate the tireless work of our incredible team,” said Christopher Miller, Co-Founder and COO. “Being recognized for both our company’s innovation and our technological achievements is a testament to the holistic, agent-first ecosystem we’ve built. It’s a win for every person who contributes to the Epique movement.”

    “To be recognized by the Stevie Awards in three distinct categories is a humbling affirmation of our core vision,” said Joshua Miller, Co-Founder and CEO. “Janice is a phenomenal leader whose innovative spirit is the cornerstone of our culture. This honor, combined with the company-wide nominations, confirms that our agent-first model is more than just a different way of doing business; it is a better way. We’re not just building a brokerage; we’re building the future.”

    Epique Realty’s achievements are profoundly unique because its innovation is holistic with integrated technology solutions across all systems. While competitors may offer a single new app or a slightly better commission split, Epique has reinvented the entire brokerage value proposition. Its model is a synergistic ecosystem where free, leading-edge AI technology, a generous financial structure, and compassionate culture all work together to fuel agent success. This stands in stark contrast to the traditional industry model, which profits by charging agents for tools, training, and support. Epique innovates by doing the exact opposite.

    The significance of this approach is validated by objective, industry-leading metrics. In its first year of eligibility, Epique debuted on the prestigious T3sixty Mega 1000, ranking #23 nationwide by agent count and #31 by transaction sides and #52 by Sales Volume ($4.29 Billion). This is not just growth; it’s a market disruption. While many legacy firms struggled, Epique’s innovative model allowed it to scale at a historic rate. This performance proves that Epique’s approach is not just a novel idea but an extraordinarily successful and scalable force that is setting a new, formidable benchmark for growth, agent productivity,

    Gold, Silver, and Bronze Stevie placements will be announced at a gala event in New York City on November 10. View the full list of winners here: Stevie Awards for Women in Business www.StevieAwards.com/Women.

  • SMX and CETI Launch an Industrial Validation Program to Drive Circular-Economy and Traceability in Textiles & Fabrics

    SMX and CETI Launch an Industrial Validation Program to Drive Circular-Economy and Traceability in Textiles & Fabrics

    Bringing molecular traceability to fashion, apparel, and technical textiles across Europe

    NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 25, 2025 / SMX (Security Matters) PLC (NASDAQ:SMX)(NASDAQ:SMXWW), the pioneer of molecular “physical-to-digital” fingerprinting for supply-chain transparency, and CETI (European Center for Innovative Textiles), one of Europe’s leading textile research and innovation institutes, have announced a strategic collaboration to embed SMX’s end-to-end tracing platform into CETI’s advanced textile R&D and circularity programs.

    This collaboration is being launches with the ultimate goal of enabling European textile and fashion stakeholders to authenticate fibers, track fabrics across their lifecycle, and unlock new financial mechanisms that accelerate the transition to a circular textile economy.

    By integrating SMX’s molecular markers and blockchain-backed digital passports into CETI’s pilot lines and industrial demonstrators, the collaboration is working to streamline proof-of-concept testing, strengthen grant applications, and shorten the path from lab breakthroughs to market-ready textile innovations.

    The collaboration is expected to deliver to potential customers, measurable sustainability and compliance advantages to European textile value chains, from luxury fashion and sportswear to industrial and technical fabrics-supporting EU Digital Product Passport regulations, ESG reporting requirements, and the drive to boost recycling and reuse in the sector.

    CETI Managing Director Frederic Silvert commented:
    As a center dedicated to the future of textiles, CETI’s mission is to enable industry to innovate responsibly and competitively. SMX’s molecular traceability platform is expected to give our partners the verifiable data they need to meet circularity goals and build consumer trust in sustainable fabrics.”

    COMPELLING FUTURE IMPACT

    The SMX-CETI collaboration positions European Metropolis of Lille as a European launch pad for next-generation textile circularity solutions. By fusing molecular-level identity with digital traceability, the collaboration is expected to deliver three decisive advantages:

    • Scientific proof, commercial speed – Shortened lab-to-market pathways allow textile and fashion manufacturers to adopt compliant, high-value recycled fibers at industrial scale.

    • Finance-ready transparency – Real-time, tamper-proof data enables sustainability-linked finance, turning circular performance into tangible economic value.

    • Ecosystem multiplier – Open innovation across fashion, sportswear, luxury, and technical fabrics to create a network effect that raises European competitiveness in achieving Green Deal and DPP targets.

    SMX believes that circularity in textiles requires more than ambition-it needs verifiable data that every stakeholder can trust. Together with CETI, SMX is moving beyond pilots to work towards a future where every fiber has a digital passport and every recycled material commands its true market value.
