Denver, Colorado- Today’s themes are diversification, defensible niches, and clearer paths to revenue.
Jeffs’ Brands (NASDAQ:JFBR) is drawing attention as its wholly owned subsidiary, KeepZone AI, expands deeper into homeland security. The company announced a non-exclusive distribution agreement with Israel-based STI Ltd., adding under-vehicle inspection systems and explosives detection tools to its growing portfolio. The agreement grants KeepZone access to high-value government customers in Canada and Mexico, including defense and national security agencies, with temporary customer-specific exclusivity built in. Management highlighted its ambition to become a “one-stop shop” for layered, AI-enhanced security solutions, building on prior partnerships spanning radar detection, autonomous security operations centers, and aerostat surveillance.
In construction innovation, Xeriant (OTCQB:XERI) continues to frame housing affordability as a materials science problem rather than a financing one. Its NEXBOARD™ wallboard, engineered from recycled plastics and aerospace-derived chemistry, targets durability, fire resistance, moisture protection, and thermal efficiency. The company’s thesis centers on lifecycle economics, lower maintenance, insurance risk, and energy costs over decades, aligning with growing interest in sustainability incentives and energy-efficiency credits that increasingly shape building decisions.
Local digital marketing is also in focus as Locafy (NASDAQ:LCFY) expanded its U.S. partnership with Experience.com. Under the agreement, Experience will sell Locafy’s Localizer product to home services businesses nationwide, initially targeting more than 800,000 contractor profiles across roofing, plumbing, HVAC, and related trades. Management cited early traction and pipeline development and is “targeting thousands of Localizer sales during 2026,” positioning the partnership as a channel-led growth engine as AI-driven search and discovery reshape local commerce.
Venus Concept (NASDAQ:VERO) drew attention after a regulatory filing showed Madryn Asset Management increasing its ownership stake to 91%. The filing also disclosed discussions with the board around cost reductions and the potential delisting and deregistration of the company’s common stock, signaling a possible transition toward a tightly controlled or private structure.
Finally, Ondas Holdings (NASDAQ:ONDS) headlines the autonomy and defense space ahead of its OAS Investor Day today. The company raised its 2026 revenue target to $170–$180 million, up 25% from prior guidance, while preliminary 2025 results exceeded expectations. Ondas reported sharply higher backlog and a pro forma cash balance exceeding $1.5 billion following a recent offering. Management is positioning its autonomous aerial, ground robotics, counter-UAS platforms, and private wireless networks as core infrastructure for defense, security, and critical industries, with scale now becoming the defining narrative.
