Jay Shapiro Launches QUAINTUM Magazine, a New Luxury Technology Publication Focused on Innovation, AI, Investment and the Future

 

FORT LAUDERDALE, FL — June 2026 — Author, movie producer, publicist and entrepreneur Jay Shapiro has announced the launch of QUAINTUM Magazine (pronounced Quantum), a new luxury-level technology publication that will join the growing portfolio of media properties operated by Luxury Chamber Media Group (LCMG).

The publication can be found online at www.quaintum.tech.

 

QUAINTUM Magazine becomes the newest addition to Luxury Chamber Media Group's collection of publications, which also includes SOUTH FLORIDA magazine, SOUTHWEST FLORIDA magazine, Mondo Italiano, Good Jewish News, Mediterranean Magazine and Latin South Florida Magazine.

 

While many know Shapiro for his work in luxury networking, media, culture and entertainment, some may wonder why he has chosen to enter the technology publishing space.

According to Shapiro, the answer is surprisingly simple.

For more than fifteen years, he has owned and operated an extensive network of websites, online publications and social media communities. Today, his digital portfolio consists of approximately fifteen websites, several thousand web pages and hundreds of social media groups built over a decade and a half.

 

Recently, Shapiro faced one of the largest technology challenges of his career: migrating his extensive collection of digital properties from a legacy hosting platform to a modern publishing environment.

"It was a massive undertaking," said Shapiro. "There was simply too much intellectual property and too many years invested to walk away from it. Historically, moving thousands of pages to a new platform was a nightmare. It still isn't easy, but artificial intelligence and emerging technologies have made the process far more manageable."

The migration project required more than six weeks of intensive work, often around the clock. What began as a technical necessity soon became a personal fascination.

 

"During the process I learned an incredible amount about technology, automation, AI, hosting platforms, digital publishing and the future of the internet," Shapiro explained. "I discovered that I genuinely enjoy technology. At one point I had a choice: I could get discouraged by the challenge, or I could embrace it. I decided to embrace it and launch my own technology media company."

 

That decision ultimately led to the creation of QUAINTUM Magazine.

The publication will cover a broad spectrum of technology topics including artificial intelligence, quantum computing, microchip development, luxury technology, robotics, software, cybersecurity, venture capital, startup culture, digital publishing, consumer electronics and emerging innovations that are shaping the future.

Shapiro brings an unusual perspective to the technology sector. Beyond publishing, he is currently producing a major motion picture based on the life and times of horse racing legend and controversial true-crime figure Buddy Jacobson. He is also the author of three books:

 

  • How to Perform Like a Billionaire
  • Think and Grow Rich: Kabbalah Edition
  • Luxury is a Mitzvah

 

In addition, Shapiro is the founder of the LUXURY CHAMBER of COMMERCE®, an organization that has hosted more than 500 networking events, cocktail parties and business gatherings throughout Florida and beyond.

His diverse background in business, media, culture, philanthropy and entertainment provides a unique lens through which to examine technology's impact on society.

 

"Technology is no longer a niche industry," said Shapiro. "It influences every aspect of our lives—from medicine and transportation to entertainment, finance and communication. Whether you're a billionaire investor, a startup founder, a student learning to code, or simply someone fascinated by innovation, technology affects your future."

Looking ahead, QUAINTUM Magazine is expected to evolve into much more than a traditional publication. Plans include a digital and print magazine, technology podcast network, event calendar, investment portal, industry journal and educational platform.

 

The company is also exploring ambitious future concepts including holographic virtual reality seminars and next-generation holographic mobile communications technologies.

With artificial intelligence, quantum computing and immersive technologies reshaping the world at unprecedented speed, Shapiro believes the timing is ideal.

 

"We are witnessing one of the greatest technological revolutions in human history," he said. "QUAINTUM Magazine is being built to document that revolution, celebrate the innovators driving it and help readers understand where the future is headed."

Luxury Chamber of Commerce Celebrates 17 Years of Business, Culture, and Connections

June 15, 2026 • Butcher's Barrel Steakhouse & Wine Bar • Oakland Park, Florida

The Luxury Chamber of Commerce® proudly celebrated its 17th Anniversary on Monday evening, June 15, 2026, at Butcher's Barrel Steakhouse & Wine Bar in Oakland Park, Florida. Members, business leaders, entrepreneurs, community influencers, and special guests gathered for an evening of fine dining, live music, networking, and celebration as the organization marked nearly two decades of bringing together South Florida's business, luxury lifestyle, philanthropic, and cultural communities.

Throughout the evening, guests enjoyed an elegant atmosphere filled with conversation, new introductions, and longstanding friendships. The celebration featured live entertainment, exceptional cuisine, and a look back at the Chamber's remarkable journey from a small networking concept to one of South Florida's most recognized luxury and business networking organizations.

Among the notable guests in attendance were real estate mogul Eyal Mehaber, Dr. Khalilah Camacho-Ali, utility company CEO Thomas Masterson, and music producer Chris Carter, along with a diverse group of business owners, executives, professionals, and community leaders from throughout South Florida.

The evening also served as a reflection on the organization's beginnings. Founded seventeen years ago during the summer of 2009, the very first Luxury Chamber event was held at Prezzo Italian Restaurant in Aventura, Florida. That inaugural gathering featured a memorable $100 bill ribbon-cutting ceremony, symbolizing prosperity, opportunity, and the entrepreneurial spirit that would become a hallmark of the organization.

Since that first event, the Luxury Chamber of Commerce has hosted hundreds of networking receptions, business showcases, charitable initiatives, cultural programs, luxury lifestyle events, and executive gatherings across South Florida. Over the years, it has welcomed thousands of members and guests, helping foster meaningful business relationships while supporting the arts, philanthropy, hospitality, real estate, healthcare, finance, tourism, and numerous other industries.

Founder Jay Shapiro thanked attendees for their continued support and emphasized the Chamber's ongoing mission of creating lasting connections between business leaders, entrepreneurs, artists, philanthropists, and innovators. He noted that while much has changed over the past seventeen years, the organization's core purpose remains the same: bringing people together in an environment where relationships can flourish and opportunities can emerge.

As guests raised a toast to the organization's milestone anniversary, the celebration served not only as a look back at seventeen successful years, but also as an exciting preview of what lies ahead for the Luxury Chamber of Commerce and its growing network of members throughout South Florida and beyond.
