BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Bravo]

I’ve been spending some time in Japan lately, and things are starting to get interesting when you look at who’s actually connected to whom.
During a conversation with a business partner, a company called Vector came up …a German player… so let’s take a look.

Renesas, who,… as we all know,…licensed Akida from us, plays a pretty central role in all this. Not just because they’re integrating the Akida IP, but also because they’ve worked with Vector years ago. Back then, it was about CANopen and industrial Ethernet… not exactly headline material, but definitely industrially relevant.

So what’s Vector’s role? Well, they’re not some small outfit. They’re playing in the top league, especially in the AUTOSAR space. And more recently, they’ve teamed up with Synopsys to develop SDV platforms.
Yes, Synopsys… the same one that’s part of the Intel Foundry Alliance… just like BrainChip.

What’s emerging here is a pretty tight-knit web of players. Not all directly connected, but definitely linked through shared nodes:

Renesas ↔ Vector
Renesas ↔ BrainChip
Synopsys ↔ Intel Foundry ↔ BrainChip
Synopsys ↔ Vector

And when you also consider that Vector has been working with Mercedes-Benz on SDV tooling and embedded software…
Well, maybe it’s worth taking a closer look at what’s possibly already brewing quietly in the background.

Coincidence? Or is there already something moving under the radar that just hasn’t made it to the headlines yet?

Just asking for a friend.
I’m no engineer…
But the network is definitely there.

I’m not good at researching so I leave it to you @Bravo

BrainChip and Tata Elxsi officially announced their partnership on August 28, 2023, when Tata Elxsi joined BrainChip’s Essential AI ecosystem to integrate Akida neuromorphic technology into medical and industrial applications.

Tata’s continued collaboration with Synopsys (2025) builds upon their existing relationship with BrainChip, completing a triangle of opportunity IMO.

Synopsys + Tata could potentially model and test complex ECUs before production which is critical for SDV.
BrainChip + Tata could potentially allow these ECUs and future ECUs to embed real-time, energy-efficient AI inference.

IMO. DYOR.

But they promised at the AGM to actively engage and communicate with the shareholders. I am sure that AV said that they would and will do better.
So that empty promise is hopefully not the same as our commitment to revenue this year, but I guess they won’t be able to remember what they said or signed off on will they, going on past performance's.

But in saying that there sure has been plenty of progress and linked in stories, hopefully they can be believed and something good comes out of it.

Beyond GPUs: Why Neuromorphic Chips Could Power the Future of AI​

This investment landscape is already starting to take shape
12h ago · By Luke Lango, InvestorPlace Senior Investment Analyst
Key Takeaways:

• Neuromorphic chips mimic the brain’s architecture, offering massive energy savings and real-time processing for edge AI applications.
• Companies like Intel, IBM, and BrainChip are pioneering the space, while suppliers like Analog Devices, Lattice, and Synopsys stand to benefit as adoption grows.
• As AI scales and power constraints increase, neuromorphic computing could become essential infrastructure, especially for robotics, healthcare, and smart devices.

Right now, AI is quickly transforming everything from content creation and cybersecurity to drug discovery and supply chains. But beneath all the buzz around ChatGPT, autonomous agents, and trillion-dollar GPU booms, a quieter revolution is forming – one that could reshape the very foundation of how machines learn, adapt, and think…
It’s called neuromorphic computing: a brain-inspired approach to building computers.
Instead of relying on traditional CPUs and GPUs that process information in a linear way, neuromorphic systems mimic the structure and function of biological neural networks.
Think of it like this: while a traditional chip acts like a calculator, a neuromorphic chip behaves more like a brain. It uses spiking neurons that fire only when triggered, operates in parallel across massive arrays, and consumes dramatically less power.
This kind of architecture is particularly well-suited for AI tasks like pattern recognition, sensor fusion, real-time decision-making, and low-power inference at the edge (meaning directly on devices like smartphones, sensors, or robots, without needing to send data back to a distant cloud server).
In short, this seems like a revolution waiting to happen.
If you’re looking for the next big thing in AI infrastructure – the kind of leap that could enable robots to think like humans, edge devices to learn on the fly, and AI systems to run 100x more efficiently – this could very well be it…

The Next Frontier in AI: Why Neuromorphic Chips Matter Now​

From where we sit, the timing for neuromorphic computing couldn’t be better.
AI workloads are exploding. Edge devices are proliferating. Power consumption is becoming a major bottleneck. And everyone from chipmakers to neuroscientists is looking for the next leap forward beyond brute-force deep learning.
Neuromorphic computing could be that leap.
And this is more than a hypothetical; these devices have already been built. And while early and small, they are showing lots of promise.
According to Intel (INTC), its experimental Loihi 2 neuromorphic chip has demonstrated energy savings of up to 100x over conventional CPUs and GPUs for certain inference tasks. And Cortical Labs’ DishBrain system, which combines living neurons with silicon, has already shown the ability to learn simple games like Pong in real time.
But these achievements could be just the tip of the iceberg for what’s to come.

Where Neuromorphic AI Could Deliver the Biggest Impact​

Though not yet at scale, we see real-world application potential across multiple high-growth sectors, like:

• Edge AI: Neuromorphic chips are ideal for smart sensors, drones, autonomous vehicles, robotics – any system that needs to make decisions locally, with minimal power draw. For instance, they can enable drones to recognize obstacles and adjust flight paths in real time without draining battery life. In autonomous vehicles, these systems can process inputs from cameras, radar, and lidar to make split-second decisions while conserving energy.
• Healthcare: These chips could be used in portable diagnostic devices that monitor patient vitals and detect anomalies instantly, such as wearable ECG monitors that flag irregular heart rhythms. They could also power adaptive prosthetics that respond to neural signals from the user’s body, creating more intuitive movement. Researchers are also exploring neuromorphic processors as the backbone of brain-computer interfaces to achieve more seamless two-way communication between humans and machines.
• Cybersecurity: Since neuromorphic systems excel at detecting subtle patterns and anomalies, they are well-suited for identifying unusual behavior in data traffic that may signal a cyberattack.
• Finance: In the financial sector, neuromorphic processors could be used to analyze high-frequency trading data or detect fraud in complex, noisy data streams – i.e. identifying unusual patterns in credit card transactions or spotting early signs of market manipulation.
• Energy efficiency: As AI workloads grow exponentially – particularly in data centers – power consumption has become a major concern. Neuromorphic chips, modeled after the brain’s energy-efficient architecture, can dramatically reduce the power needed for tasks like image recognition or language processing.

Who’s Building Neuromorphic Chips – And Who Stands to Profit​

A small but growing group of companies is building the neuromorphic future. Some are public. Most are still private. But the investment landscape is already starting to take shape.
There is BrainChip Holdings (BRCHF): the purest publicly traded neuromorphic play – albeit a very risky one. The company makes the Akida chip, a neuromorphic processor designed for ultra-low-power edge AI. It’s already being used in smart sensors and defense applications.
BrainChip also holds IP licensing and development agreements with major entities (including Renesas, MegaChips, Mercedes, NASA, and Raytheon, as well as a cybersecurity project with Quantum Ventura tied to the U.S. Department of Energy).
Revenue is still modest, and the company is largely unproven. But if neuromorphic computing hits an inflection point, the potential upside could be massive.
On the more stable side, we have Intel. The blue-chip tech giant is dabbling in neuromorphic computing.

Trump is Fast-Tracking These Three Companies​
The Trump administration is planning to invest DIRECTLY in a small sector of the stock market… And they just revealed the names of three potential targets. Click here to see the details because legendary investor Louis Navellier believes shares are about to skyrocket.

Its Loihi project is one of the most advanced neuromorphic research platforms. And while it’s not yet a commercial product, Intel has the resources, IP, and foundry capacity to scale if neuromorphic demand accelerates. Think of it as a “call option” in this emerging field.
In a similar vein, there’s also IBM (IBM). Its TrueNorth chip helped pioneer the neuromorphic field. Today, IBM remains a powerhouse in brain-inspired computing, neurosynaptic research, and AI infrastructure.
It’s a slower-moving giant, but it’s quietly investing in the foundational tech of the future.

Potential Key Players Across the Neuromorphic Supply Chain​

Further down the supply chain are Analog Devices (ADI) and Lattice Semiconductor (LSCC) – two potential supplier plays on neuromorphic computing.
Since these systems rely heavily on analog signal processing and mixed-signal semiconductors, ADI could benefit greatly.
Meanwhile, Lattice is focused on low-power field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) for edge applications – essentially, customizable mini-computer chips that can be programmed to do specific tasks.
While not explicitly neuromorphic, Lattice is well-positioned to benefit from increased demand for adaptable, low-latency AI inference platforms at the edge.
There’s also Cadence (CDNS) and Synopsys (SNPS) to consider. After all, designing neuromorphic chips isn’t easy. It requires new tools, simulation software, and mixed-signal modeling. These electronic design automation (EDA) companies are the picks-and-shovels plays on the whole space.
Other picks-and-shovels plays?

• Specialty memory makers (Micron (MU), for resistive RAM and phase-change memory)
• Foundry toolmakers (Applied Materials (AMAT), Lam Research (LRCX))
• Sensor and signal companies (Ambarella (AMBA), Cognex (CGNX))
• AI edge infrastructure suppliers (Qualcomm (QCOM), Nvidia (NVDA))

With a diversified approach, you get exposure to the ecosystem without betting it all on a single chipmaker.

Final Word: Brain-Inspired AI Is Coming Faster Than You Think​

Neuromorphic computing isn’t just the next chip upgrade; it’s a radical leap forward. These brain-inspired systems promise to make machines smarter, faster, and far more energy-efficient.
If they deliver, they won’t just improve AI… they’ll redefine it.
And like every breakthrough before it, the biggest gains go to those who get in before the crowd catches on.
This is the kind of opportunity that could turn small-cap pioneers into market leaders – and supercharge the incumbents building tomorrow’s AI infrastructure.
It may be early days for neuromorphic computing, but it’s no longer theoretical.
The seeds are planted. The architecture is real. And the use cases are arriving fast.
In fact, there’s one we’re particularly bullish on…
Humanoid robotics.
These machines demand the kind of real-time, low-power intelligence that neuromorphic chips are built to deliver.
As production scales and adoption accelerates, the companies developing this tech could be at the heart of a trillion-dollar disruption.
Right now, one company seems poised to win the robotics race. And we’re got our sights set on one little-known firm in its supply chain that could soar as a result.

sure they said that, but in my opinion nothing has changed in their engagement with shareholders since the AGM, and we are left to assume that there has been progress and search LinkedIn for information every day.

I personally was hoping for better.

I have also emailed the company has received no replies, and the replies I have received from the new IR company, were not even worth the paper they were written on. Very disappointing all around!

I don't know why BRN would spend money engaging a new IR firm, when they just give stock standard replies, and in many cases (according to other shareholders), no replies at all!

Feels like groundhog day (in terms of IR).
