If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!
Ahh who am I kidding, you're going to have more BrainChip millions to woo her and besides, I would be the intellectual equivalent of a fly in her ointment..
I wonder if she has an equally attractive, but less intelligent sister..
Hello Dingo. It’s Anastasia’s sister here. PM me if you want to woo me.

The U.S. government will invest about $3 billion for the National Advanced Packaging Manufacturing Program (NAPMP), including an advanced packaging piloting facility to help U.S. manufacturers adopt new technology and workforce training programs. It also will provide funding for projects concentrating on materials and substrates; equipment, tools, and processes; power delivery and thermal management; photonics and connectors; a chiplet ecosystem; and co-design for test, repair, security, interoperability, and reliability. NAPMP is one of four CHIPS for America R&D programs, along with National Semiconductor Technology Center (NSTC), Manufacturing USAinstitute(s), and CHIPS R&D Metrology.
“Within a decade, we envision that America will both manufacture and package the world’s most sophisticated chips,” said Laurie Locascio, director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). “This means both onshoring a high-volume advanced packaging industry that is self-sustaining, profitable and environmentally sound, and conducting the research to accelerate new packaging approaches to market.”
OpenAI fired founder and CEO Sam Altman, then reinstated him and sacked three of the board members who dismissed him. The move follows a warning from 700 of the 770 employees at the company said they join Altman at Microsoft if he was not reinstated at OpenAI. Microsoft owns 49% of OpenAI, and agreed to hire Altman after his dismissal.
Japan’s Resonac announced plans for an advanced packaging and materials R&D facility in Silicon Valley. The company plans to begin operations in 2025.

A quarter of U.S. adults said they would be “very likely” or “likely” to buy a fully electric vehicle the next time they buy a car, but cost, lack of charging stations, cost to replace or repair the battery, range anxiety, and the impact of cold weather on range remain primary barriers, reports AAA.Infineon introduced a new topside-cooled high-voltage superjunction MOSFET for onboard charging and DC-DC converters.

I do not recall from a long long time ago of exactly how many Akida 1000 " Engineering Samples" waffers/chips were initially ever produced. Does anyone recall this issue of, was it 7,000 "waffers"of chips ?? and thus how many chips/waffer were produced ?)......... I was under the opinion and thought that there were many many tens of thousands of chips made ....... but the Co never actually provided / disclosed that final production run figure/s ............. imo, maybe these unused/leftover Akida 1000 chips will find their way into the new VVDN edge box to be released soon and thus getting rid of old new warehouse stock.

From my understanding brn got only 1st batch of akida1000. Brn also end up paying approx 7 million us dollars to socionext for the whole job. Which means the arrangement was such that company can still get more chips in batch 2 or 3 of those chips.
Just a guesswork. Dyor

The "current" shorters lightening up their positions, can only mean one thing, which they would prefer not to be known, but it's as clear as mud.
I see it as confidence for a strong buy signal and a slowly appreciating share price (which are mutually inclusive).
This is without any news, just the anticipation of news and brightening horizons for BrainChip.
In other words, what has been a continually dwindling share price, is at an end.
At least that's what I think..
The outcome of whatever renegotiated LDA agreement, that we get (I don't believe there is time now, to fulfill the original obligation) could be the wrench in the works..
As LDA potentially has the upper hand, in any dealings..
Plus, we are still at the whims of general market conditions, brought on by World macroeconomic events..
But generally speaking, things are looking up
Not financial advice.
I recently increased my holdings substantially, but that's just me.
Just another bear flag Dingo.. Not even close to turning the corner..
Luckily BRN still has a few years left to right the ship..
2024 is a crucial year though as the CEO said..
Good luck with your buying.. If it does turn here, you’re a genius..

Deadpool's post went over my head the first time round, so thanks for reviving it FMF.
So did the assets of the edge computing solutions business of Renesas include the Akida licence?
If so, was the lecence transferable?
Presumably, if it was transferable, it would have been subject to approval by BrainChip.
Renesas had already paid the licence fee for 2 nodes, which would be suitable for HVAC applications.
enOcean makes sensors powered by ambient energy, so very low power consumption would be a necessity.
Could this change have contributed to the delay in getting the "Renesas" product to market?

Hi cosors,
If we are in a joint development with Nvidia and Mercedes, background IP would have been ring fenced, and the JV agreement will also address the ownership of IP developed during the JV.
That would provide a contractual basis for pursuing related IP theft, which may be easier to prove than the outright theft of IP.

Hi D,

I really hope so.
Otherwise in an other case, as a German, I am biased towards China. We hopefully reach out our hand and present how well everything is going and in the meantime they have already cut all the meat from our hand and sold it without our consent.
We are dealing with our competitor with the biggest motive of all. And as this case shows it came out purely by chance.
I don't know why, but at that very moment I was thinking that Tesla would never do something like that with Musks knowing. He is far too proud of his own achievements.
Nvidia sells what compared to Brainchip?
What they don't have.
I hope you're right and I'm wrong.
