BrainChip Holdings Ltd (ASX: BRN, OTCQX: BRCHF, ADR: BCHPY), the worldās first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully digital, event-based neuromorphic artificial intelligence (AI), today announced a strategic partnership with
Blue Ridge Envisioneering (BRE), a
Parsons company (NYSE: PSN), a Virginia-based innovator delivering next-generation solutions to the defense and intelligence sectors. The agreement supports the deployment of AI systems that maintain performance without reliance on cloud connectivity. Parsons will integrate BrainChipās Akida⢠neuromorphic processors into its mission-ready edge-AI platforms, enhancing adaptive performance in constrained and dynamic defense environments. Neuromorphic processors aim to mimic biological neural networks to perform efficient, low-power AI computations.
The engagement will leverage Akidaās industry-leading low-power, real-time inference and on-device learning capabilities to deliver intelligent tactical solutions at the edge. It formalizes a multi-year collaboration, granting Parsons access to the AKD1500 processor. Parsons will use BrainChipās AI Enablement Package and benefit from supply continuity and support services.

ļøāAt Parsons, our mission is to tackle our customersā toughest challenges through innovative and disruptive technologies,ā said Mike Kushin, President of Defense and Intelligence for Parsons. āThis agreement between Parsons and BrainChip brings a pioneering edge to our capabilities, harnessing neuromorphic AI to deliver real-time, low-power intelligence at the tactical edge. This collaboration strengthens our combined national security commitment and propels our roadmap for deploying AI-enabled systems that will redefine defense operations.ā
The integration of Akida allows Parsons to deploy AI that performs under the most austere conditions with advanced signal analysis, adaptive architecture, and sovereign defense use cases. The supply framework includes committed volumes for manufacturing scale, continuity-of-supply provisions, and tiered pricing for high-volume deployment.

āThis partnership with Parsons exemplifies how neuromorphic computing enables breakthrough capabilities in the most demanding environments,ā said Sean Hehir, CEO of BrainChip. āMore broadly, Parsonsā agility, technical rigor, and mission focus make them an ideal collaborator in deploying Akida into next-generation defense systems where low latency and low power to meet SWaP requirements are not just desiredāthey are essential.ā
Akidaās event-based architecture and one-shot learning distinguish it from conventional AI accelerators by providing unmatched energy efficiency, responsiveness, and data locality. These characteristics are critical for sovereign, edge-deployed systems where connectivity and cloud access are often limited or unavailable.
The expanded relationship underscores both companiesā dedication to creating high-performance AI systems that are technically advanced, operationally resilient, and strategically relevant to national defense.
