M42 Expands Defense and National Security Strategy Through Epirus Partnership and Fairfax International Defense Capabilities

DALLAS, TX / ACCESS Newswire / May 22, 2026 / Messier 42 LLC (“M42”), a private leading global artificial intelligence technology and digital transformation company, today announced that M42’s wholly owned subsidiary, Fairfax National Security Solutions LLC (“Fairfax”), has entered into a teaming arrangement with Epirus Inc. Under the agreement, Fairfax is expected to drive the compliant marketing and sales of select Epirus advanced counter-drone technologies to approved U.S. and allied government customers. M42 believes the agreement represents an important step in expanding Fairfax’s role as an international defense channel.

This agreement highlights the strategic importance of M42’s previously announced agreement to acquire a minority interest in Epirus, a high-growth defense technology company developing advanced counter-drone systems, including the Leonidas family of solid-state, software-defined, high-power microwave systems.

Epirus’ Leonidas platform is designed as a solid-state, high-power microwave system that uses advanced electronics and software-defined capabilities for counter-drone applications. This technology is designed to address the rapidly expanding threat posed by drones across military, homeland security, critical infrastructure, and allied defense environments.

Fairfax will serve as a compliant international channel to support the introduction, engagement, and potential sale of select Epirus counter-drone solutions into approved foreign markets. Fairfax is registered with the U.S. government as an exporter of defense training, equipment, and related defense services and solutions under the Arms Export Control Act and International Traffic in Arms Regulations, enabling participation in U.S. government and approved allied defense programs.

“Unmanned or drone systems are changing the character of modern conflict, creating an urgent need for scalable, sophisticated, and highly adaptable defensive capabilities,” said Patrick M. Walsh, Admiral, US Navy (ret), former Vice Chief of Naval Operations, former Commander, US Pacific Fleet, and a member of M42’s Advisory Board. “M42’s strategy brings together advanced technology, national security expertise, regulatory discipline, and allied-market access at a time when governments are seeking practical and affordable solutions to emerging drone threats. By combining Epirus’ leading counter-drone technology with Fairfax’s defense advisory and international compliance capabilities, M42 is positioning itself to support allied partners in addressing one of the most important defense challenges of our time.”

M42 believes the combination of Epirus’ technology with Fairfax’s national security and compliance infrastructure will create a significant long-term strategic opportunity. M42 expects Fairfax to play a central role in supporting disciplined, compliant, and targeted international engagement with approved allied governments and defense stakeholders.

“This is exactly the type of opportunity M42 was built to pursue,” said a spokesperson for M42. “The global defense environment is moving quickly, and the need for advanced counter-drone capabilities is no longer theoretical. Through our relationship with Epirus and our acquisition of Fairfax, M42 is bringing together leading technology, trusted national security leadership, and a compliant international defense platform. We believe this combination has the potential to become a meaningful contributor to M42’s long-term growth and free cash flow profile, while supporting allied governments in addressing urgent and evolving security needs.”

M42 previously announced its agreement to acquire a minority interest in Epirus in October 2025. The Company also announced its agreement to acquire Fairfax in March 2026 as part of the expansion of its Defense and National Security Unit.

AIAI Holdings Adds Blockchain Data Infrastructure Capabilities With the Acquisition of Constellation Network

In a Landmark Moment for Web3, a Layer 1 Blockchain Infrastructure Company Enters the Public Markets Through a Diversified Holding Company

DALLAS, TX / ACCESS Newswire / May 19, 2026 / AIAI Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ:AIAI) (“Ai2” or the “Company”), an AI-enabled diversified holding company utilizing Transformational AI to enhance portfolio performance, today is highlighting Constellation Network, one of its portfolio of companies.

Constellation Network is a technology company that includes a Layer 1 blockchain used for powering enterprise data solutions and AI. Constellation’s reach of products extends to retail intelligence, U.S. defense, AI security, and consumer applications in Web3. This technology enables AIAI to expand its portfolio into blockchain-enabled infrastructure designed to support trusted data environments for artificial intelligence, enterprise systems, and next-generation digital applications.

Why This Matters

As artificial intelligence adoption accelerates across industries, the need for transparent, traceable, and auditable data infrastructure continues to grow. The acquisition of Constellation Network signals a fundamental shift in how institutional markets view blockchain technology – from speculative digital assets to mission-critical infrastructure.

Constellation’s protocol provides:

  • Cryptographically secured data validation is designed to make data interactions more transparent, traceable, and auditable.
  • A Digital Evidence framework powering verified training data and AI agent operations at scale.
  • Enterprise-grade blockchain infrastructure with existing relationships across the data and AI ecosystem, including Common Crawl.
  • A proven Layer 1 protocol purpose-built for the convergence of AI and decentralized data integrity.

The acquisition marks a defining milestone. Based on the Company’s review of the market, AIAI believes Constellation Network may be among the first Layer 1 blockchain infrastructure companies to become part of a diversified public holding company listed on the NASDAQ Global Market.

“Constellation is not a speculative technology asset. It is infrastructure for trusted data,” said Todd Furniss, CEO and co-founder of AIAI Holdings Corporation. “As AI becomes more deeply embedded in business operations, the ability to validate data, verify digital evidence, and create transparent audit trails becomes increasingly important. Constellation gives AIAI a differentiated blockchain infrastructure platform that we believe can play a meaningful role in the future of AI-enabled enterprise systems while also creating potential opportunities to embed trusted data validation capabilities across AIAI’s portfolio companies.”

AIAI Holdings Corporation began trading on the NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol “AIAI” on May 14, 2026.
