Avazona Ltd.’s ‘Founders in Focus’ Hits #1 Best-Seller on Amazon, Celebrating 14 Elite Entrepreneurs Who Built It Their Way

Published

on

Founders in Focus: Stories from 14 Entrepreneurs Who Built It Their Way,” the debut anthology by Avazona Ltd., has officially hit #1 on Amazon in multiple categories. The book captures the raw, real, and radically different journeys of 14 visionary entrepreneurs across diverse industries.

Edinburgh, UK, 2nd July 2025, ZEX PR WIREAvazona Ltd., the powerhouse behind some of today’s most visible personal brands, has made a major splash in the publishing world with the launch of Founders in Focus: Stories from 14 Entrepreneurs Who Built It Their Way. Since its release, the book has become an Amazon #1 bestseller, topping charts in Global Marketing, Commerce, Shopping & Commerce Reference, and Business Franchises. Featuring real, unfiltered narratives from entrepreneurs in sectors like healthcare, real estate, tech, coaching, and education, the anthology highlights the grit, detours, and defining moments behind modern success.


Founders in Focus by Avazona Ltd.

The book was born out of a need to separate entrepreneurial hype from what it’s really like, what the book’s creator, TJ Avazona, describes as the “pitfalls.” “We’re drowning in hustle quotes, but what people really need are raw blueprints and unedited maps of what it looks like to fall and get back up,” said TJ. “I wrote this because I wish I had it ten years ago. These are the stories I needed to hear when I was struggling.

Each chapter offers a lived lesson plan, earned through trial, error, and relentless belief. The book doesn’t promise a straight path, but it does offer guidance. These founders may come from different industries, but their stories echo a shared truth: that persistence, adaptability and courage are the real foundations of success.

TJ’s own evolution reflects the message at the heart of the anthology. His path was not a red carpet to success, it was lined with failed YouTube channels, ghosted pitches, painful rejections and constant reinvention. From roadside penny hunts to leading a million-dollar marketing agency, his story is just one of many that prove success isn’t about getting it right the first time, it’s about continuing anyway.

“Founders in Focus: Stories from 14 Entrepreneurs Who Built It Their Way” is now available on Amazon.

Press Release

Dolly Varden Silver Confirms High-grade Gold System at Homestake Ridge

Published

on

Dolly Varden Silver reported a significant gold intercept from a step-out drill hole at the Homestake Silver deposit. The hole is a 45-meter step-out along strike from hole HR24-433 and 30 meters up dip from hole HR24-451

Canada, 7th Oct 2025 – Global Stocks News – Sponsored content disseminated on behalf of Dolly Varden Silver. On October 1, 2025 Dolly Varden Silver (TSXV: DV) (NYSE American: DVS) (FSE: DVQ) reported a significant gold intercept from a step-out drill hole at the Homestake Silver deposit.

Hole HR25-456 intersected 3.34 g/t Au over 120 meters, including 216 g/t Au over 0.52 meters and 166 g/t Au over 1.3 meters.

The hole is a 45-meter step-out along strike from hole HR24-433 and 30 meters up dip from hole HR24-451

.

“These gold results from a step-out hole at the Homestake Silver Deposit confirm that the deposit continues to grow beyond the current mineral resource estimate,” stated Shawn Khunkhun, CEO of Dolly Varden Silver in the October 1, 2025 press release.

“These results demonstrate the strength of the high-grade gold system, potentially a separate and overlapping event from high-grade silver mineralization at the deposit; this deposit is potentially a key driver of future project development,” added Khunkhun.

“We have two lenses that are close to each other,” Rob van Egmond, VP of Exploration, told Guy Bennett, the CEO of Global Stocks News (GSN). “The second phase could overlap the silver-rich mineralization, or it could be a separate lens.”

“Any time you have overlapping events or long-lived fluid conduits, it indicates some of the precious metals may have been deposited during the Jurassic age [160 million years ago], while a second mineralizing event may have occurred in the Eocene age [40 million years ago]”.

“This duo-timeline mineralisation is one deposit is a known characteristic of the Golden Triangle. One of our neighbours has been age-dating their assays, confirming the presence of an Eocene age mineralised system.” 

“When you find a regional corridor where Jurassic mineralization has been overprinted by Eocene mineralisation,” added van Egmond, “typically the grade is augmented in that structure. Hole HR25-456 had large flakes of visible gold.”

 

 

“When we purchased this asset,” van Egmond told GSN. “Homestake Silver had a higher ratio of silver to gold than Homestake Main. But we’re thinking about changing the name, because at investor conferences Shawn and I have to explain that Homestake Silver is now primarily a gold deposit.”

“Geologists are always working to either prove or disprove a model,” said van Egmond. “You collect data, assess it, and make modifications to the model as necessary. Hole HR25-456 is adding confidence to the current model.” 

Five diamond drills are nearing completion of the 2025 drill program across the Kitsault Valley and Big Bulk Projects. At Homestake Silver, drilling has focused on expanding and infilling areas of high-grade gold mineralisation

DV is also testing outside the current resource. Additional results from the Homestake Silver gold zone, Wolf Vein silver mineralization extension, Big Bulk copper-gold porphyry system, as well as other exploration targets, will be reported as assays are received.

DV Silver is using directional drilling technology to precisely target areas for step-out and infill holes at Homestake Silver.

“Directional drilling allows you to position the drill bit exactly where you want it to be, without re-drilling hundreds of meters from the surface,” van Egmond told GSN. “It’s an ideal technique for us to explore Homestake Silver.”

This animated video by Horizontal Technology gives a technical overview of directional drilling.

“A skilled driller can direct the course of the drill bit along a pre-planned path over great distances,” confirms Horizontal Technology.

HR25-456 is one of three holes drilled from the same pad, designed to extend the wide, high-grade plunging zone and test outside the current mineral resource model. The drill hole is approximately a 45-meter step-out along strike from previous intersects.

Approximately 40% of the 2025 season’s 55,000-meter planned drill program at DV’s 100% owned Kitsault Valley Silver and Gold Project targeted the Homestake Silver Deposit to expand and infill zones of high-grade gold mineralization.

The deposit remains open for expansion, with gold mineralization vectoring to the Homestake Main Deposit, along strike to the north of the Homestake Silver Deposit.

On October 01, 2025 Dolly Varden Silver announced a $30 Million Bought-Deal Financing featuring 2,300,000 @ $6.50/share; 750,000 flow-through shares @ $9.42/share and 990,000 flow-through shares at $8.10 per share.

Flow-through shares enable public companies to transfer exploration expenditures to investors who can take advantage of the corresponding tax incentives, thereby ‘flowing their benefits through’ to the shareholder,” writes CG Wealth Management.

“Investors in a high tax bracket can use the tax credits from flow-through investments to bring down their personal tax owing,” added CG Wealth.

Pursuant to existing agreements, Hecla Canada and Fury Gold Mines will be entitled to acquire shares @ $6.50/share to maintain their respective pro rata equity interests in DV Silver.

DV’s metal inventory value is now approximately a 50/50 split between silver and gold.

“With gold selling for CND $5,400/ounce,” van Egmond told GSN, “our team is encouraged to hit 120 meters of 3.34 g/t gold.”

Rob van Egmond, P.Geo., Vice-President Exploration for Dolly Varden Silver, the “Qualified Person” as defined by NI43-101, has reviewed, validated and approved the scientific and technical information contained in this GSN release.

Matt Egyhazy on AI: The Future of Banking is Hyper-Personalized, Not Just Automated

Published

on

New York, USA, 7th October 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, In an era where digital transformation is reshaping industries, the financial services sector stands at a critical juncture. The conversation around artificial intelligence has often been dominated by its potential for automation, process optimization, and cost reduction. While these benefits are significant, Matt Egyhazy argues that this view is far too narrow. He posits that the true, transformative power of AI lies not in replacing human functions, but in profoundly enhancing them to deliver an unprecedented level of client personalization.

According to Matt Egyhazy, the ultimate goal of implementing AI should be to move banking from a transactional model to a deeply relational one. The future, he suggests, is not a world of automated, impersonal interactions. Instead, it is a future where technology empowers financial institutions to understand and anticipate the unique needs of each client, offering tailored advice, products, and support throughout their financial lives. This vision re-frames AI as the engine for hyper-personalization, a tool for building stronger, more meaningful, and more resilient client partnerships.

Redefining the Role of AI in Financial Services

For too long, the narrative has positioned AI as a tool for internal optimization. The metrics for success were often inwardly focused: reduced headcount, faster processing times, and lower operational costs. Egyhazy advocates for a fundamental shift in this perspective. The focus must turn outward, toward the client experience. The new key performance indicators should be client satisfaction, financial wellness, and long term loyalty.

This approach requires thinking of AI less like a factory assembly line, designed for uniform efficiency, and more like a master craftsman’s toolkit, capable of creating something unique for each individual. It is about using intelligent systems to understand the nuanced context of a client’s life or a business’s operational cycle.

“We must see AI as a catalyst for empathy at scale,” says Egyhazy. “The technology allows us to listen more intently to the signals our clients are giving us through their financial activities. When we harness that understanding, we can move from being reactive service providers to proactive, trusted advisors. The goal is not just to make banking faster; it is to make banking smarter, more intuitive, and more aligned with the individual aspirations of our clients.”

The Mechanics of Hyper-Personalization

Achieving this vision of hyper-personalization is a complex undertaking, built on a foundation of robust, secure, and ethically managed data. AI algorithms can analyze vast and diverse datasets far beyond human capacity, identifying patterns, predicting future needs, and flagging opportunities that might otherwise go unnoticed.

This capability translates into tangible, real world applications. For a small business owner, it could mean an AI powered system that analyzes cash flow patterns and proactively suggests a more flexible line of credit before a seasonal downturn. This prevents a potential crisis and demonstrates a deep understanding of the business’s unique rhythm.

In wealth management, it could be a platform that adjusts investment recommendations in real time, not just based on market fluctuations, but also on subtle shifts in a client’s life goals, which are inferred from their changing financial behavior. For a commercial banking client, an AI might alert a relationship manager that a company is expanding into a new international market, providing the manager with the perfect opportunity to offer tailored trade finance and foreign exchange services.

“This is about connecting the dots in a client’s financial story,” Egyhazy explains. “Predictive analytics allows us to anticipate the next chapter in that story. We can be ready with the right advice or the right product at the exact moment it becomes relevant. That is a profoundly different and more valuable interaction than simply waiting for a client to come to us with a request.”

Balancing Technology with the Human Touch

A common fear is that the rise of AI will render the human element in banking obsolete. Matt Egyhazy strongly contests this view, arguing that AI’s true value is realized when it augments, rather than replaces, human expertise. The technology should be seen as a powerful co-pilot for financial professionals.

By automating routine and data intensive tasks, AI can liberate relationship managers, financial advisors, and other specialists to focus on what they do best: building trust, providing nuanced strategic advice, and navigating complex, emotionally charged financial decisions with clients. AI can provide the data driven insights, but it is the human professional who provides the wisdom, empathy, and contextual understanding to apply those insights effectively.

“Imagine a relationship manager who is freed from hours of manual data analysis,” says Egyhazy. “Instead, they walk into a client meeting armed with a set of AI generated insights about that client’s emerging needs and potential risks. The conversation is immediately more strategic, more forward looking, and more valuable. The technology does not replace the relationship; it powers it.”

Navigating the Ethical and Practical Challenges

This forward-thinking vision is not without its challenges. The ethical implications of using client data are paramount. Egyhazy stresses that any AI-driven initiative must be built on a bedrock of trust, which requires an unwavering commitment to data privacy, security, and transparency. Clients must have confidence that their information is protected and used responsibly to their benefit.

Furthermore, the “black box” problem, where AI decision making processes are opaque, must be actively avoided. Financial institutions have a responsibility to ensure their AI models are explainable, fair, and free from bias. There is also the significant technical hurdle of integrating sophisticated AI platforms with existing legacy banking systems and the critical need to upskill the workforce to collaborate effectively with these new intelligent tools.

“We must innovate at the speed of trust,” Egyhazy notes. “Progress cannot come at the expense of our fundamental obligations to our clients and our communities. Responsible innovation means being transparent, ethical, and deliberate in how we deploy these powerful technologies.”

A Vision for the Future of Banking

Ultimately, Egyhazy’s vision is for a banking ecosystem that is more responsive, more intelligent, and more human. It is a future where a client’s interaction with their bank feels less like a series of isolated transactions and more like a continuous, supportive partnership.

This future is one where technology and humanity work in concert to help individuals, families, and businesses achieve their financial goals. By focusing AI on hyper-personalization, the banking industry has an opportunity to redefine its value proposition, fostering a new generation of client loyalty built on genuine understanding and proactive support.
