Z Squared Inc. CEO David Halabu Discusses AI Data Center Strategy on Two Investor Podcasts

Published

on

Both Interviews Are Live Now and Available Through the Company’s Website and Major Podcast Platforms

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Sept. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Z Squared Inc. (Nasdaq: ZSQR) (“Z Squared” or the “Company”), a computing infrastructure company expanding into AI infrastructure, today announced that David Halabu, Chief Executive Officer, was recently featured on two investor podcasts: The Wall Street Resource, hosted by Jeff Kone, and The Nano Cap Podcast, hosted by Will Tjernlund. Both interviews are live now.

Speaking with Jeff Kone on The Wall Street Resource, Mr. Halabu outlined how Z Squared acquires existing powered sites – former crypto mining and manufacturing facilities – and retrofits them for AI and high-performance computing use. He described the Company’s role as a triple-net landlord, positioned the Union County Campus in Arkansas as its flagship asset, and reiterated the two measures he has asked shareholders to hold the Company to over the next 12 to 18 months: megawatts under management and signed leases.

Speaking with Will Tjernlund on The Nano Cap Podcast, Mr. Halabu traced his background in trading and real estate and the Company’s path to the public markets, and detailed the criteria Z Squared applies to a prospective site – price, power and time to power, redundant fiber, water, and county and municipal support. He also addressed the expanding role of behind-the-meter generation as utility interconnection timelines lengthen, and why he expects land and power to remain scarce as AI compute demand grows.

“These conversations were a chance to be direct about what we are building and how it generates revenue,” said David Halabu, Chief Executive Officer of Z Squared. “We find power, deliver a shell an AI tenant can use, and grow the site behind it. Over the next 12 to 18 months, measure us on megawatts and leases.”

The full interviews can be found via the following links:

The Wall Street Resource (Jeff Kone): Here

The Nano Cap Podcast (Will Tjernlund): Here

Both interviews touched on the Company’s previously announced acquisition of Paradox Data, LLC and the Union County Campus it brought with it. Set out below are the questions investors have most frequently raised about that transaction.

What did Z Squared acquire?

Z Squared acquired 100% of the membership interests of Paradox Data, LLC, whose flagship asset is the Union County Campus in El Dorado, Arkansas. The transaction closed on an all-stock basis – no cash at closing and no debt financing.

How much power does the Union County Campus have today, and how does it scale?

The campus has an existing arrangement with Entergy Arkansas for energy service of up to 8.0 MW, plus an executed contract for adjacent land. On The Wall Street Resource, Mr. Halabu described roughly eight megawatts of total capacity and six megawatts of critical capacity available today. The development pathway targets up to 150 MW over time through a combination of utility power and on-site generation, added in phases as utility timelines and customer demand allow.

How does Z Squared expect to generate revenue from the campus?

Z Squared intends to operate as a triple-net landlord, not a compute provider: it expects to lease the land, the building and access to power to tenants – primarily “neocloud” and enterprise AI users – with power treated as a pass-through, and does not intend to buy or lease GPUs. Mr. Halabu said he is hopeful the first six to eight megawatts can be monetized in the early-to-mid 2027 timeframe, subject to the factors described under “Forward-Looking Statements” below.

About Z Squared Inc.

Z Squared Inc. is a computing infrastructure company operating advanced computing equipment and expanding into AI infrastructure. The Company’s strategy is built on three principles: lead with power by acquiring operating sites where power is already flowing; build for AI workloads by converting that capacity into AI-ready colocation where the customer brings the compute and runs what they need; and scale with discipline by deploying conversion capital site by site, against signed contracts and operational readiness. Z Squared’s common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “ZSQR” in April 2026.

Accredit Solutions Launches Accredit Induct to Turn Workforce Readiness into an Access Decision

Published

on

By

New operational readiness product links identity, induction, credentialing and access control, enabling organizations to enforce “no induction, no access” before credentials are issued.

Accredit Solutions, the global identity, credentialing and workforce access technology provider, today announced the launch of Accredit Induct .

DURHAM, N.C., Sept. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Organizations across sport, live entertainment, government and major events face growing pressure to prove that people entering their environments are trained, authorized and ready for their roles. Yet many still manage induction and compliance through disconnected PDFs, spreadsheets, emails, supplier records and standalone learning systems.

These approaches may support training delivery, but often leave a gap between completion and control. Organizations may know induction content has been issued, yet struggle to prove in real time whether the right person has completed the right requirements before credentials or access are granted.

Accredit Induct closes that gap.

Built on the Accredit Platform and aligned with the Accredit OS operating model, Accredit Induct enables organizations to assign role-based requirements, deliver digital induction and compliance content, track completion in real time and enforce completion before credentials or access permissions are issued. In simple terms: no induction, no access.

Unlike a traditional Learning Management System, Accredit Induct connects induction status directly to an individual’s identity, credential record and access permissions. Completion is not simply recorded; it can become a condition of credential approval and entry.

“Induction has too often been treated as a separate administrative exercise, but it shouldn’t sit separately from the access decision,” said Peder Berg, CEO of Accredit Solutions. “Accredit Induct connects identity, readiness and credentialing in one workflow, so organizations can ensure the right requirements are met before access is approved.”

The platform enables organizations to:

Prevent credential issuance until mandatory training is complete.Maintain one identity record across induction, credentialing and access.Assign requirements by role, organization, event or credential type.Track completion across individuals, teams and suppliers in real time.Manage expiry dates, refresher training and recurring obligations.Create auditable compliance records.See who is ready, who is incomplete and what action is required.

“Knowing who is onsite is important,” added Berg. “Knowing they are trained, authorized and ready for their role is becoming just as critical.”

Koning Breast CT System added to the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods, enabling commercial supply in Australia

NORCROSS, Ga., Sept. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Koning Health, a global leader in advanced breast imaging technology, today announced that the Koning Breast CT System has been successfully included in the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), marking an important regulatory milestone for the company’s expansion into the Australian market.

Koning Breast CT added to the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (TGA), enabling commercial supply in Australia

The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) approved the inclusion of the Koning Breast CT System, CBCT 1000, under ARTG No. 531059 on September 8, 2026. With the device now included in the ARTG, commercial supply in Australia may begin in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and the conditions of the ARTG inclusion.

“This is an important milestone for Koning and for our continued global expansion,” said David Georges, President of Koning. “We are grateful to everyone who worked tirelessly to bring this technology to Australia, and we look forward to supporting providers as they introduce a new approach to dedicated breast imaging for their patients.”

The Koning Breast CT System uses cone beam computed tomography to acquire true 3D images of the breast without compression. The system is designed to provide detailed volumetric breast imaging while creating a more comfortable experience for patients compared with traditional compression-based breast imaging.

The Australian regulatory approval builds on Koning Health’s continued international growth and expanding presence across global markets. It also clears the way for the company to begin supporting its first Australian customers, including Brisbane Radiology, the first provider in the country to purchase the Koning Breast CT System.

Brisbane Radiology’s early commitment to the technology reflects the growing interest among imaging providers in advancing the breast imaging experience and expanding access to innovative technologies.

“We are incredibly proud to be the first in Australia to bring this technology to our patients,” said Jacqui Milne, Clinical Director at Brisbane Radiology. “This approval is an exciting milestone, not only for our team, but for the future of breast imaging in Australia. We are looking forward to helping introduce this technology and seeing the opportunities it may create for patients and providers across the country.”

“We are thrilled to reach this point,” said Georges. “Australia represents an important market for breast imaging innovation, and Brisbane Radiology’s early commitment demonstrates the kind of forward-thinking leadership that helps bring new technologies into clinical practice. We believe this is only the beginning of a much broader opportunity across the country.”

Koning Health will continue working with its Australian partners to support commercialization, provider education, installation, and clinical adoption while ensuring compliance with all applicable TGA requirements.

About Koning Health

Sea, Gardens, Lawns and Hearths: Life Abroad Across Noah’s N+ Club Network

Published

on

By

From yachts in Hong Kong to hearthside gatherings in Tokyo, and from West Coast lawns to a reading space in Shanghai, Noah’s N+ Club network spans 10 cities, providing global Chinese families who move among multiple locations with a place to sit down in each one.

SINGAPORE, Sept. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Singapore-headquartered global wealth management firm Noah Holdings Limited (NYSE: NOAH; HKEX: 6686; “Noah”) today introduced its N+ Club network. Currently spanning 10 cities across Asia and North America, the network allows individuals and organizations holding N+ memberships to reserve and use participating clubs in its various locations.

More Chinese families are now living across several cities at once: one family member works in one place, children study in another, and parents remain elsewhere. Assets can be arranged across different markets, but family life is less easily organized. A family dinner, a gathering of friends or a child’s birthday still needs a physical place where people can come together.

That is the need the N+ Club network is designed to address. It is not a standardized business space; each club reflects the way people live locally. A single membership opens onto a different setting in every city.

Four Ways of Living Abroad

Hong Kong, China — Out to Sea. The club can arrange yacht outings for members, taking a business meeting or family gathering onto the water. It also features a conference room accommodating approximately 150 people for small forums and family events. In Hong Kong, good conversations often begin after leaving shore.

Singapore — A Villa and Garden. The club occupies a villa with a garden, suited to family dinners, alfresco meals and small private gatherings. The tropical climate keeps the garden usable almost year-round: it belongs to children by day and to adults after nightfall.

U.S. West Coast — Lawns in Los Angeles, a Bar in Silicon Valley. The Los Angeles club makes the outdoors its main stage, with an expansive lawn, outdoor barbecues and an open gathering space. On the U.S. West Coast, socializing rarely takes place in meeting rooms: children run across the grass, adults talk over drinks, and much gets decided that way. Silicon Valley moves to a different rhythm. Its sunlit lounge beside the bar features sofas arranged for conversation and abundant greenery. It feels less taut than Silicon Valley’s usual pace and more relaxed, giving people time to finish the conversations that truly matter.

Tokyo, Japan — The One Place That Turns Inward. The club includes a hearth room where a small group can gather around a fire on winter nights. Art lines the walls, making the very act of staying worth the time. While the previous three settings open outward, Tokyo draws inward: quiet, unhurried and suited to a long conversation with no need to watch the clock.

At the Other End of the Network: Shanghai

Shanghai, China — Art, Music and Reading Under One Roof. Located at the heart of the Hongqiao transportation hub, Noah Wealth Center was designed around the idea of “a tree rooted in the soil and continually growing.” The first two floors of the flagship client service building house reading spaces, with a spiral staircase winding upward. Above them are art exhibition and music spaces, followed by meeting and business areas. The “Ten Thousand Acts of Trust” art exhibition was previously held here.

The clubs outside mainland China draw people outdoors; Shanghai invites them in. Moving floor by floor up the staircase is a journey in itself. For many families living abroad, it is also a place to land when they return.

Noah also operates clubs in Suzhou, Chengdu, Xi’an and Wuhan, China, for business discussions, gatherings of family and friends, and small meetings.

What Is Consistent, and What Is Different

The N+ Club network initially considered adopting a standardized format, but ultimately decided against it. Noah’s view is that clients in Hong Kong want to go out on the water; in Singapore, they want to invite people into a garden; on the U.S. West Coast, they want gatherings on the lawn; in Tokyo, they seek a different kind of quiet; and in Shanghai, they want a place they can move through slowly, floor by floor. These are not merely variations in amenities; they reflect different ways of life. If every club looked the same, the network would be further removed from clients’ daily lives.

What the network does standardize is something else: wherever members arrive, the reservation process, service standards and approach to hosting are familiar. What differs is the scene that greets them when they walk through the door.

Why Would a Wealth Management Firm Build Clubs?

Most families Noah serves have moved beyond conversations focused solely on rates of return. What they truly care about is whether, when wealth passes to the next generation, it still carries the family’s intentions intact.

Financial arrangements can be completed in accounts and reports; family memories cannot. What a family truly leaves behind is often a way of seeing the world. It cannot be captured in an asset list and can only be passed on through time spent together: a meal, a piece of music, an exhibition seen together or a summer a child remembers.

Beyond financial services, Noah’s global N+ ecosystem brings art, music, culture and private client experiences into families’ daily lives. The clubs are the most everyday part of that ecosystem. Members can come even when there is no specific business to conduct; that is precisely why the clubs exist.

For an institution that treats enduring legacy as a defining theme, this work matters as much as asset allocation.

Membership and Use

N+ membership provides eligibility to reserve and use Noah’s N+ clubs. Membership is offered in individual and organizational categories and is valid for one year. Organizations may register authorized users in accordance with the membership rules. Global membership is open to individual and organizational applicants outside mainland China.

Applicants do not need to hold a Noah account. Applications may be referred by an existing member, a member of the Noah team or a partner, or submitted directly. Membership is subject to review, and each club sets an annual limit on new admissions. Venue, service and fee arrangements for each use are confirmed separately by the local club. On-site services are provided by the local operating entity. N+ membership is not a financial product.

About Noah Holdings

Noah Holdings Limited (NYSE: NOAH; HKEX: 6686) is a wealth management firm headquartered in Singapore and focused on serving high-net-worth global Chinese families. The company listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 2010 and achieved a dual-primary listing on The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited in 2022.

Where Global Chinese Wealth Connects

Since its founding in 2005, the Noah team has made cumulative asset allocations exceeding USD 153 billion for global Chinese families, with operations spanning nine countries and regions. Noah’s three platforms have distinct roles: Olive Asset Management helps clients own the future; ARK Wealth Management helps them allocate toward the future; and Glory Family Heritage helps them pass the future on. Together, they provide an integrated range of services spanning investment, asset allocation and succession. Each platform operates through entities licensed in the relevant jurisdictions and only within the scope of their respective authorizations.

Beyond financial services, Noah’s global N+ ecosystem focuses on art, music, culture and private client experiences, building a community rooted in shared values for global Chinese families that extends beyond wealth and across generations.
