Excellent sleuthing Fact Finder...on a lighter note i think you would of made a brilliant Private Investigator with your keen investigation skills. As Richie Benaud would say "marvellous"I have just had another look at the new Brainchip website and on the first page under the heading "IN GOOD COMPANY" appears the following list and a bar to click if you too would like to become a "Partner."
The list on the home page is a banner that revolves but now lists the following companies:
"Prophesee, Renesas, Valeo, NASA, MegaChips. NVISO, EMOTION3D, Edge Impulse, Ai Labs, SiFive, Mercedes Benz, ARM, Intel"
As it is a banner no one is first in line.
When you click on 'Partner' this is what now appears:

The other day I posted about the wording approved by Brainchip on the Teksun website after it took down the reveal of "Cisco, Toshiba' and another company and I suggested it revealed certain things about Renesas and Mercedes Benz well as you will see from the above they form their own unique category.
What makes Renesas and Mercedes Benz not a Technology Partner, an Enablement Partner or an Integration Partner well Renesas has bought IP and software from Brainchip to produce its own chip/MCU.
We know Mercedes Benz has publicly stated it is building its own chip and of course as Blind Freddie says you need IP to do that.
On the Teksun website Mercedes Benz has partnered just like Renesas to drive "intelligence into next generation devices". Again this is a bit hard without IP already in your hands and guaranteed to be available once you go into production.
We know that this very same entry included ARM with Mercedes Benz and Renesas as partnering with Brainchip to do the same thing yet ARM is described above as a Technology Partner and no longer stands with these two companies.
So it is up to you to decide was one of the IP licences sold to a third party by MegaChips who was originally announced as looking to use AKIDA technology in the automotive space sold to Mercedes Benz?
In my opinion there is now some logic to support this conclusion.

Hi @DingoBoratGreat to see Renesas and Mercedes, confirmed as partners, on BrainChip's website. Matching the wording now on Teksun's website.
"Prophesee, Renesas, Valeo, NASA, MegaChips. NVISO, EMOTION3D, Edge Impulse, Ai Labs, SiFive, Mercedes Benz, ARM, Intel"
On Teksun though, shouldn't they appear in the above revolving banner?
And what about Socionext?
Looking at the video and link from socionext. There is definitely something cooking. If it is just a research project of some sort then why promote almost every week.Hi @DingoBorat
As for Teksun probably more difficult to add to banner so probably waiting for their host to get it done.
Socionext I have mentioned I raised the absence of Socionext previously and basically was told nothing other than the relationship with Socionext is complex whatever that means.
There is no doubt Socionext and Brainchip are an item but it’s a bit like one of those Romeo and Juliet romances where it has to be kept under wraps because of the parents.
I might try again and see what they say this time.
My opinion only DYOR

He says "Brain " 5 times and chip 5 times
It's like he wants to break the NDA
Is it technologically/economically conceivable that the Akida chip in the field of lighting technology for LED lamps will bring a significant improvement in terms of energy utilization and efficiency in relation to the durability of an LED lamp and/or electricity savings in general? Could it be possible to build Akida IP into LED chips, or is that too far-fetched. In my opinion, there needs to be significant progress in the development of LED lamps in order to improve their quality (lifespan, power consumption, light frequency on/off).
Which are the big led manufacturing companies in the world?
Do some have a relationship with BRN?
How manny chips/year does this market need?
