Am I able to change my vote if we get Mercedes, Valeo and even NVidia coming clean before the AGM?
BRN Discussion Ongoing
- Thread starter TechGirl
- Start date
One thing which has been consistent ever since we first engaged our EAP was we listened, created, shared engineering ideas which led
to the creation of CNNSNN then we listened and created MetaTF, now we have listened and created AKD 1500, yes I realize it hasn't
officially left the foundry yet and will require some testing, then we (Peter and Co) created AKD 2000, this I am sure was after a lot of
discussions had taken place between our EAP's still hidden behind the cloak of darkness and Anil, Kris and Co to better understand, to
better facilitate all the needs of our prospective customers moving forward, then just recently more great progress, committing to make
available for all developers, PyTorch.
The Brainchip design and engineering teams are bending over backwards to accommodate any potential major client, all in a bid to see
our company succeed...try to appreciate that before racing to judge our Executive please.
I am aware that there has been a lot (maybe an exaggeration) of tweaking going on, but ultimately, once the samples are released, if not so
already, the individual companies concerned will obviously have their own in-house engineers put the tech through it's paces, then and only
then will an IP finally be signed off on, I see a number of companies sitting at stage 2 or 3 on the IP License Agreement scale, so once again
were are held captive if you like until they decide to 100% commit.

I’ve had my suspicions and could be completely wrong, but who are you Tech within the company? As that’s so written like someone that works within like many before.One thing which has been consistent ever since we first engaged our EAP was we listened, created, shared engineering ideas which led

Great post @SERA2g , Sean was also on board for the ISL EAP announcement early last year. This was a significant development imo as it is a direct connection to the AFRL as a big chunk of the DOD and probably feeds into the Blue Ridge collaboration.

It’s been a while since Manny resigned but it’s my understanding instead of taking the shares owed at the time there was a handshake deal he could take them later although I can’t recall the circumstances now but it was quite logical at the time. They then lapsed. I wish I could recall the specific circumstances to properly convey what occurred back then but I don’t have FF’s memory.
When it came to returning the shares owed to Manny as per their agreement at the time it was realised that technically they couldn’t be re-vested to him without shareholders consent: hence this vote to authorise it.
Given there was an agreement to re-vest them to him at the time I think it’s only fair to honour the agreement. As well as it being the right thing to do it also shows the company will look after their staff.
The other side of the coin is that if the shares aren’t returned then I imagine it will be pursued through the courts in which case it will likely cost more and tarnish Brainchip’s reputation as being a company of choice for future employees.

I have to admit that I‘m not very knowledgeable about licensing IP and so on. But I remember some statements (I think it was Sean Hehir) that they are awaiting some more patents to be granted.
And I wonder if you are a company planning to sell chips or sublicenses in the markets/countries the potentially granted patents apply to, maybe they are just waiting for these grants to materialize.
I‘m assuming that they might need to wait as long to de-risk their investment in Brainchip licenses. Could this be part of the reason for the current silence regarding additional license sales?
As stated at the beginning, this is not my area of expertise and I would like to hear the opinion of someone who knows more than me.
Btw thx a lot for this great platform and all the informative and funny contributions. I like it a lot.

That's right.
It was certainly something along those lines.
And, as you say, it is a debt owed that a shonky company might try and delay or get out of, but which, when tested in court will likely go against us with all the extra associated ill will, costs and unnecessarily distracting drama.
So, a bit like getting a parking or speeding ticket.
You can jump up and down, raise your blood pressure and pay the ticket......or, just pay the ticket and move on.

I vote yes only because I want the execs to have a financial interest in an increasing share price

Absolutely agree Damo4.
I will wait until the 4C is released to look for a few things:
1. Will it be a near copy and pasta job again?
2. Progress on patents and the tech side of the business (this has also been quiet lately which I wonder about). We have so many in the works but no official word lately from the company on these with a little more specifics than the usual broad brush statement.
3. Of course receipts. But that is a roll of the dice as we can speculate as much as we like about that.
I feel salty about the SP as many of us all have every right to, but I remember we are in a risk-off investing envronment and with the world in a shoddy macro economic postiion, I can be a little more forgiving. That and we are in the tech/ai category. Explosive gains and rollercoasters. I have deep down the Web 3 (crypto really) rabbit hole for a few years now as well and understand we as an AI company can be exposed to the same volatility. Also the ASX/Media and sundry are seemingly against Brainchip, but that is all orchestrated for penny stocks with potential IMO.
That being said though, the 4C will validate mostly what I think has been lazy and vague communication to us shareholders about details that can be revealed. Also the strategy must be reiterated for Sean's sake. I know bulding an ecosystem first is important to our strategy, but I didn't know that until I heard the second from last podcast. How many shareholders know about this?
I will vote after the 4C that may change my mind. But right now, I understand why some posters are voting the way they are.
As a natural optimist, I am hoping for some positive news anyway that can blow our minds soon. I want to open an announcement and run rings around wherever I may be (or a turtle waddle really).
Cheers all,

Interesting post on LinkedIn liked by RT.
Not saying it’s relative to BC but I‘m sure running a start-up with a new science fiction disruptive technology takes a lot of work, planning dedication, patience and skill.
I’m glad we have the experienced staff we do running the show!

I'm sure probs missed this being posted as been busy with work and skimming posts at times, but we pushing Akida Gen 2 with Nandan giving a talk at the Embedded Vision Summit May 22-24.
We are a Gold sponsor and also exhibiting in conjunction with Nandans' presso.
embeddedvisionsummit.com
embeddedvisionsummit.com
Date: Tuesday, May 23
Start Time: 16:50
End Time: 17:20
The AIoT industry is expected to reach $1T by 2030—but that will happen only if edge devices rapidly become more intelligent. In this presentation, we’ll show how BrainChip’s Akida IP solution enables improved edge ML accuracy and on-device learning with extreme energy efficiency. Akida is a fully digital, neuromorphic, event-based AI engine that offers unique on-device learning abilities, minimizing the need for cloud retraining. We will demonstrate Akida’s compelling performance and extreme energy efficiency on complex models and explain how Akida executes spatial-temporal convolutions using innovative handling of 3D and 1D data. We’ll also show how Akida supports low-power implementation of vision transformers, and we’ll introduce the Akida developer ecosystem, which enables both AI experts and newcomers to quickly deploy disruptive edge AI applications that weren’t possible before.
We have some mates there as well like Edge Impulse being a Premier sponsor and doing some presoos including FOMO-AD plus ARM, Renesas and some "dot" companies exhibiting

Is this like a Chinese social credit score?
You're doing a great job with the forum Zee. I'd rather read the squabbles on the forum re. Moderation that read the shit that gets posted everyday in the bad place.
I see a NO vote as a vote of no confidence in management. Rather than scent-marking, there is an alternative to a NO vote if a shareholder should feel they have insufficient information, and that is to abstain.
Patents can take a few years to grant after filing. While it would be prudent to wait for a patent application to be filed before negotiating, it is unlikely that IP licence negotiations would be delayed for grant.
The Akida IP licence includes rights to use the circuit layout rights (the masks defining the silicon layers), configuration software, model libraries, confidential information, as well as the patents.
