Why won't SEAN OR BRN MANAGEMENT give us a update isn't been nearly a year.
Why won't SEAN OR BRN MANAGEMENT give us a update isn't been nearly a year.
California - Pacific daylight TimeJust checked the BRN website for the Sally Ward-Foxton podcast which was supposed to be out 3pm PDT which I assume is Perth Day Time.
No show as yet.
I plan to retire about the same time so perhaps we can catch up and talk about all the things we are going to be doing with our monstrous wealth.Isn't it amazing that every time the share price drops a call for announcements reverberates throughout this forum. It's not like asking the same questions over and over again and expecting different answers because that would be the definition of insanity, oh wait!?
So the only guidance we have are the press releases and the financials. I've accepted these conditions of being a BRN shareholder and while I too would like the odd announcement, I see absolutely no sense in harping on endlessly about announcements when doing so changes nothing.
I retire at the end of 2025 by which time I expect BRN to be at least $10 per share, that is what I'm focused on.
Everything else until then is just noise, he said - she said dribble. Unfortunately the actual receipts, the hard facts, the amazing research done in this forum would also be drowned out if not for contributors such as FF, Dio and a few others. It's not their job to constantly remind some here that BRN has been making huge gains and cementing our future as shareholders, tbh it's getting tiresome.
It's not hard to work out who in this forum will be holding when BRN is micrsoft x 10 should that happen. My only wish is that the rest of us collectively hold our nerves through the highs and lows and not let emotions rob us of this once in a lifetime opportunity.
Great Idea, I'm in. Anywhere, anytime, many timesI plan to retire about the same time so perhaps we can catch up and talk about all the things we are going to be doing with our monstrous wealth.
Cheers to you Victor.
Should be about 7am tomorrow for us Sandgropers? If all goes to plan.California - Pacific daylight Time
Was checking in on NASA again and as we know Numem have been selected for Ph I contract negotiation for this year and will be looking to use Akida in the project.NASA firm list for contract negotiations posted couple days ago.
Confirms Ph I for Intellisense ADORBL and Numem which we had good idea were goers.
ADORBL not mention Akida specifically but is neuromorphic COTS which I think is safe bet as given they did mention working with Akida in NECR and Numem do mention us as we know.
Intellisense already previously confirmed Ph II on NECR.

Further to my previous post I have a question for those more tech savvy.Was checking in on NASA again and as we know Numem have been selected for Ph I contract negotiation for this year and will be looking to use Akida in the project.
Having a look at their website and their focus is MRAM:
A new class of Resistive RAMs
A new class of Resistive RAMs (MRAM, ReRAM) are on the verge of disrupting the semiconductor industry by enabling cost effective integration of non-volatile memory and, over time, a lower cost and lower power alternative to SRAM. These new memory types use a standard process for base layers and as such can scale down to lower geometries while Flash stops at 28nm.
What I am asking myself is under this section...wonder where they may get future assistance with this.....hmmmm
Success via NASA would not only benefit themselves but also Akida obviously.

Still a young company by the looks and backed in originally by MAAN Ventures.

JAs soon as the Restricted Stock Units vest, you have a tax liability in the US. So far Sean has been granted 6 million RSU's over 3 years (this was part of his initial salary package), so they vest at a rate of 2 mill per year This is as well as his liability for Fed income tax to the IR Dept, and then because he is most likely domiciled in Calif, most likely close by to Laguna Hills, he will also be liable to a chunk of State taxation as well. Calif State taxes are high, which is why many people are leaving Calif for lower taxing States in the US. The US taxation system is vastly different to the regime we have here.
So I have no problem whatsoever with Sean reducing his considerable tax liability, I am much more interested in his performance as our CEO and in his capacity as an Exec Director. It is way too early IMO to really assess how good, or otherwise his performance has been to this point in time. Having said that, the partnerships made this year are truly impressive, and speak to a good probability (some here would justifiably say high probability) of excellent outcomes, in terms of earnings growth. However some of the recent achievements would have to be, also attributed to the work of Rob Telson and Lou Di Nardo, as well as others along the way.
So we may/will get a better subjective fix on Seans performance moving forward, although with all the NDA's and the clandestine nature of the tech industry, it may turn out to be: a who would know kind of scenario, because staffing levels have grown so dramatically in recent times, and we won't really know who has achieved what - unless of course BRN decide to give SHers more information. For me the acid test will be the AGM next year, as I have said before I remain strong in my confidence in the Akida technology, and important outcomes look, on the surface of things, to be coming together. At the end of the day Sean is the CEO, he is not just a salesman.
In every presentation on this issue it has never been suggested that the design would need to be changed to take AKIDA smaller than 28nm.Further to my previous post I have a question for those more tech savvy.
Numem state that flash doesn't scale down (at this point from what I can see) lower than 28nm which is currently what Akida is.
Numem:
"These new memory types use a standard process for base layers and as such can scale down to lower geometries while Flash stops at 28nm."
Numem are using MRAM to assist this scale down process it appears.
Renesas recent article has said:
"We are working with a third party taping out a device in December on 22nm CMOS,” said Chittipeddi."
Is this tape out of the device Chittipeddi is mentioning going to be using MRAM or ReRAM and if so does this link back to another Renesas article from mid year I posted a few days back where:
"Renesas Develops Circuit Technologies for 22-nm Embedded STT-MRAM with Faster Read and Write Performance for MCUs in IoT Applications".
Wondering if to get Akida to the 22nm involves this change or not?
