And you all mocked me when I said two days ago pay no attention to the price rise over the next couple of days, Turns out I can read tea leaves better than the happy clappers here.

Galaxy. You got 1 like and two rather oblique comments on your post.
That's hardly us all mocking you or happy clapping either. 🤣
More like ignoring I'd have said.

Just had a quick look at last years AGM results.
13 polls were taken including sub resolution 6 polls on issue of service rights, RDUs.
Only 5 polls out of the 13 polls received more than 75% for.
These were 2x Directors re election, 2x ratification of prior issue of shares and the Approval of Shares equity scheme.
In the absence of absolute sensational news a delisting and relisting in the US will not likely get a 75% for vote.
BRN will not hold a meeting for a delist/Relist US unless they know in advance they will win the day.

So why Taiwan?

This is a customer-facing job, not so much Socionext/TSMC.

Why Taiwan? It’s a fu..in street food paradise 😂 i think it’s the only reason until I see no revenue… 😂 just kidding! Big announcement soon! Wohoooo

Probably why we ain’t heard anything since it was announced and probably won’t until the AGM as they know if they release information before hand it will be slated here and over at the crapper.

Not quite sure what to make of this strange LinkedIn post?! After all, April Fools’ Day was more than two weeks ago… 🤔

This gentleman from Switzerland who describes himself as an AI nerd (although AI is not his professional background) claims to have been a freelance Senior Business Development Consultant with our company for some time, but at the same time describes his job role as being “a fanboy of BrainChip and its products/solutions portfolio”. According to his work experience section, he has allegedly held this “position” since April 2020? Is that by any chance when he bought his first BRN shares?

A quick look at his LinkedIn posts shows that he has liked quite a number of BrainChip posts over the past few months, but then suddenly started commenting extensively over the past week, with weird posts such as below…

Is this supposed to be some sort of BRN shareholder joke? But then can he simply (mis)use the BrainChip logo and claim to work for our company? 🤔

Or does he really have some sort of consultancy agreement with our company, and if yes, why do we find out five (!) years later through this LinkedIn post?
Actually, in that case, I might consider applying for a consultancy agreement myself - the work required doesn’t seem to be that hard… 🤪 🤣

“NEUROBUS: FRUGAL AI SERVING DEFENSE AND AEROSPACE​

(…) Though Space remains a core sector for Neurobus, its technology's practical application in the drone sector unlocks compelling possibilities for autonomy. Drones equipped with Neurobus's frugal AI can execute missions more independently, making real-time decisions with minimal human oversight. While human validation remains crucial for strategic actions, tasks like area surveillance can be managed autonomously.
For instance, a drone could autonomously evade an oncoming object at high speed. However, directing itself toward a target would require prior human authorization.

Although the present application is primarily focused on defense, driven by the current geopolitical climate and pressing demands, Neurobus also foresees a future in the civilian domain, particularly in applications like autonomous drone delivery services.

(…) Identifying the ideal market for a disruptive technology proved difficult. After considering the automotive and space sectors, both with lengthy integration cycles, Neurobus found its niche in drones.”

NEUROBUS: FRUGAL AI SERVING DEFENSE AND AEROSPACE​

SHARE

Combining Deep Tech and Sustainability is the winning bet of Neurobus, an innovative startup founded by Florian Corgnou, an entrepreneur whose successive periods at HEC Paris have greatly impacted Neurobus's trajectory.

Neurobus HEC paris

AEROSPACE, A CORE SECTOR​

Initially destined for an engineering career in aeronautics, Florian's trajectory gradually shifted toward entrepreneurship and the business world, a change accelerated by a significant period in the United States. Following this, his desire to engage with cutting-edge technologies drew him to Tesla's European headquarters in the Netherlands for his first experience. Though formative and inspiring, this experience ultimately led Florian to make a 360-degree turn. The engineer departed from his favored sector, becoming an entrepreneur in an unexpected field: finance.

With Trezy, his startup, SME managers could monitor their company's financial situation in real-time. The venture proved successful, raising 3.5 million euros and continuing to operate today. Yet, despite Trezy's success, Florian felt compelled to invest in a more meaningful project, one within a field that genuinely excited him.

Aerospace beckoned him once more. It was there, while participating in a space entrepreneurship program in partnership with Airbus Defense & Space, that the idea for Neurobus began to germinate.

NEUROBUS, A SOLUTION THAT COMBINES ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND INTELLIGENCE

By observing technological advances at Tesla and SpaceX, and then participating in the Airbus Defense Space program, Florian established the groundwork for Neurobus. Immersion with engineers and space experts allowed him to pinpoint market trends and unmet needs, needs Neurobus was determined to address.

So, what does Neurobus offer? It's an embedded, frugal Artificial Intelligence – specifically, an AI engineered for minimal energy consumption and direct integration into host systems like drones and satellites. Data processing occurs locally, eliminating the costly energy expenditure of transferring data to centers.


Neurobus HEC paris


Neurobus's initial focus was the space sector, a field inherently linked to defense, with partners like Airbus Defense and Space, the European Space Agency, and the French Space Agency. However, the company adroitly adapted its promising technology to the drone sector, a rapidly expanding market with more immediate demands. Winning a European defense innovation competition further validated the potential of their solution for drone detection.

The core of Neurobus's innovation lies in its biologically-inspired approach: the neuromorphic system. This disruptive technology draws inspiration from the human brain and retina to create processors and sensors that are remarkably energy-efficient. For Florian, the human brain serves as an unparalleled source of inspiration:
"The brain is one of the best computers that exists today because it delivers immense computing power with extremely low energy consumption."


DRONES: A TESTED AND VALIDATED FIELD OF APPLICATION TESTED AND VALIDATED​

Neurobus sidesteps the capital-intensive manufacturing of components like processors and sensors. Instead, its value proposition lies in assembling these components and developing tailored software layers to meet specific manufacturer needs. This positions the startup as both an integrator and a software publisher, streamlining the adoption of this cutting-edge technology.

As Florian Corgnou explains, "Neurobus operates precisely between the manufacturer and the industrialist. We don't create the hardware, but we assemble it into a product that specifically addresses our customers' requirements and develop software layers that cater to the unique applications of that industrialist."

Though Space remains a core sector for Neurobus, its technology's practical application in the drone sector unlocks compelling possibilities for autonomy. Drones equipped with Neurobus's frugal AI can execute missions more independently, making real-time decisions with minimal human oversight. While human validation remains crucial for strategic actions, tasks like area surveillance can be managed autonomously.
For instance, a drone could autonomously evade an oncoming object at high speed. However, directing itself toward a target would require prior human authorization.

Although the present application is primarily focused on defense, driven by the current geopolitical climate and pressing demands, Neurobus also foresees a future in the civilian domain, particularly in applications like autonomous drone delivery services.


OVERCOMING CHALLENGES, STEP BY STEP​

Like any entrepreneurial venture, Neurobus faced its share of challenges – challenges Florian embraces. As he notes, "The biggest challenge was securing our market within a limited timeframe and on a tight budget." A dual problem indeed.

Identifying the ideal market for a disruptive technology proved difficult. After considering the automotive and space sectors, both with lengthy integration cycles, Neurobus found its niche in drones.

Financially, Florian acknowledges the perpetual challenge for startups: "Financial resources are the lifeblood of any venture, and as a startup, we're constantly in survival mode."

However, Neurobus distinguished itself through its initial financing strategy. Rather than immediately pursuing fundraising to convince investors of a nascent technology, Florian prioritized securing R&D contracts with clients. "Having already gained institutional and industrial validation in previous roles, I ensured clients financed the R&D, guiding us toward the optimal applications."


Neurobus HEC paris


Another inherent difficulty with disruptive technologies is their vast potential scope. Florian stresses the importance of discipline: "In Deep Tech, it's easy to get lost – a trap we all fall into, myself included!" While the technology's versatility is tempting, the real challenge lies in identifying the application offering the greatest business and technological value. "You must focus, master a single use case, execute it flawlessly, and avoid spreading yourself too thin," he advises.

This strategy is paying dividends, with R&D contracts generating roughly €600,000 in revenue in 2024, excluding public subsidies
. The team, currently composed of two partners and three employees, plans to expand to approximately ten members by June through four new hires.
With this traction and a refined roadmap, Neurobus is planning an ambitious fundraising round of €5 to €10 million by year-end to initiate the conceptual phase – developing the final product based on client feedback.


HEC PARIS, THE COMMON THREAD OF THE NEUROBUS ADVENTURE​

Would Neurobus be where it is today without Florian's HEC Paris experience? Unlikely. While launching Neurobus, Florian simultaneously pursued HEC Paris's Executive Master of Science in Innovation & Entrepreneurship (EMSIE) to "gain support and surround myself with expertise." This, combined with Neurobus's participation in the Incubateur HEC Parisand Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) - Paris, provided a framework and strategic guidance instrumental in shaping Neurobus's trajectory. The Challenge+program further honed the team's skills.

Neurobus HEC paris

CDL Next Gen Computing Session

Mentors from these programs challenged the company's direction and refined its strategy. "The Incubator team provided invaluable assistance in finalizing complex client contracts," Florian explains, "and the CDL mentors challenged us on critical issues. This external perspective enabled us to ask the right questions and minimize mistakes."

Finally, Florian shares advice for aspiring Deep Tech entrepreneurs:
  1. Validate your idea with customers before seeking funding.
  2. Securing a paying customer – a champion and internal advocate – is the best possible validation.
  3. Develop a true 'customer obsession' to deeply understand your clients' needs and confirm their willingness to pay upfront."
This customer-centric approach has fueled Neurobus's success, and we eagerly anticipate following their future achievements.

This is a perfect example of how the brainchip management attitude views its entitlement to be rewarded the same as successful companies producing revenue and signing commercial agreements.

They need to Stop trying to feed shareholders nonsense. I don’t think shareholders will have an issue with issuing free shares and bonuses if you simply perform your role, which is signing commercial agreements and creating revenue.

In the real world, you’re paid based on your performance. At the moment, you haven’t achieved acceptable results from the last AGM.

If what they have done is not worthy of an ASX announcement then is it really worth giving them performance shares ?

We are losing talent because the company isn’t moving quickly enough for them to stay. If BRN had signed more commercial agreements and generated revenue, no one would be leaving.

Gidday Yogi,

I thought it was a very good podcast, both guests spoke plain English, any educated person can see what the company is
trying to do, to me it just reflects the integrity starting from the founders down.

The demand for talent in the AI sector is huge, you can then lift that to another level when you enter the SNN space, as the
pool of talent would have to be considered way smaller, the next wave (the future) is going to be coming from all the Universities
who are promoting Neuromorphic Computing courses for the next generation of engineers and Neuroscientists etc.

It's important to remember that, not all staff are going to be driven by the almighty dollar, a lot of our staff over the years have been
approaching the last part of their careers, so money may not have been the driving force, but I think that incentives for the younger
staff is extremely important, the instant pay rise would always attract some, but being acknowledged for great work, achieving valid
milestones and earning the respect of both Peter and Anil (for example) would be the incentive from my point of view.

Kris Carlson would be a prime candidate in my opinion...he's been a loyal staff member and super talented!

Regards..........Tech
