BRN Discussion Ongoing

Don't know if this has been discussed. Re our Partners. If a joint commercial product is produced, would BRN's partner require an IP licence?

A partnership would probably be in the form of a joint development, in which the revenue is shared in an agreed proportion normally based on each party's contribution.

This is different from a licence where the licencee reatins all the revenus, but pays an agreed amount, usually on a pre-item basis.

It's very, very clear to me at least that Tony Lewis knows just how good Brainchip's innovations are, not only does he have a very
good team around him, despite losing Yan Ru (Rudy) recently to Nvidia, we are right where we need to be.

Yes, I can feel the frustration just as much as anyone, when will a couple of BIG signings take place, the truth is, we have been knocking
on that door for an awful long period, we aren't going away, so I guess some company will eventually answer our persistence, maybe.
just maybe Rudy will help Jensen realise that Brainchip is the clear path to give his company dominance at both ends of the spectrum,
that is, the data centre and the far edge......we are the leaders in this space, at least I'm still satisfied that is the case. but the amount of
visual traction still really bothers me...........Question: what are our EAP's so concerned about, as a company, we have bent over and taken
it like a team player, what happens on tour, says on tour......sign the contracts, and stop all this hedging of bets.

As Steve Brightfield suggested, some interesting news (will likely) be shared in April......comon Sean, deliver something solid !!

Slightly pissed off Tech x
Losing Rudy is really a big loss for brainchip, but then nothing is constant in this world. One thing for sure he must be good at what he was doing but platform may not be that great.
Matter of fact is bad management is hurting us from all corners. There is very little seen from management side which can make us proud.
Had we realized Sean's own remuneration is going down every year with no incentives, so what can we expect from him when he cannot expect something for himself.

Volkswagen decided to sell their in-house currywurst in supermarkets… 😂 and some people here are complaining about BrainChip’s t-shirt era in the beginning…

The best we can offer at the moment, is humble pie..
But we're "giving" that away 😛..

Just another intern helping with our Akida including TENNs and LLM RAG.

Here is a journal article published today titled “Real-Time AI Inference at the Edge for Self-Driving Cars” by Murali Krishna Reddy Mandalapu, Senior Director, Hardware Engineering at Renesas Electronics America.


A good read on the topic for sure that also covers neuromorphic computing as an emerging trend for the future of Edge AI in autonomous driving, but strangely there is no mention at all of BrainChip or Akida, despite Renesas Electronics America having signed an IP license with us back in December 2020.

Four months ago, when I found out Sailesh Chittipeddi, the public face of Renesas to us BRN shareholders, had decided to leave the company at the end of 2024, I wrote another post on the mystery surrounding Renesas:

I once asked Tony Dawe if there is a written partnership agreement with the partners and he told me there was. I assume that agreement would deal with IP.

I've come to think of the Partnership Agreements as being like an IP Licence but without the fee to encourage uptake of the product.

Yoda,
That's what I was thinking. There has been a lot of banging on here about lack of signed IP licences but I see the Partnerships as 'IP licences'
So any jointly produced commercial products would be income but without the upfront licence fee.
You gotta be happy with that...... Just wait a little longer.

Yes I agree. If you look at it that way we have agreements with many clients and we are just waiting for those clients to produce a product with Akida and start paying royalties. Presumably, because there was no upfront licence fee and because the timeline for the client to produce a product was long and uncertain, these agreements were not announced on the ASX as commercially sensitive. However, as time goes by, it may well come to pass that some, if not most, of these agreements will become commercially significant and income producing. 🤞

Question: what are our EAP's so concerned about?

They won't recoup the money they spend on developing a product with Akida2.
And they won't be able to support the product into the future unless they hire ML coders and SNN data analysts.

That is why the FPGA interim solution is important. i.e. they can assess the real-time inferencing that Akida can bring, without the whole thing being a simulation. It's also a hindrance since FPGA programmers are rarer than ML coders.

Believe it or not I think there is a piece missing in our eco-system -eg a company that could put together a working cybersecurity solution using QV's models on akida hardware on an FPGA chip and take that box around to demonstrations.

Are you interpreting the situation as per your knowledge or you want to tell us the facts we don't know yet?

So you mean TD told you that brainchip had signed contracts with partners and waiting for products with Akida but cannot tell the market because of NDAs?
