BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Diogenese]

If successful, Steve will be there representing shareholders. Something that has been missing from BRN for a long time. He's not afraid to ask questions (eg previous AGMs about Manny's 8,000,000 shares). Here's hoping more people get on board, and vote for him.

If elected, Steve will be there as an independent director. He doesn't have any mandate to represent shareholders. There has been no shareholder survey to support such a position.

I also note the Trumpian proposal to disenfranchise a director. How odd?

Hi dippY,

Along with how much coal, I think you would also have to ask what type of coal.

From the USGS

" What are the types of coal?​

There are four major types (or “ranks”) of coal. Rank refers to steps in a slow, natural process called “coalification,” during which buried plant matter changes into an ever denser, drier, more carbon-rich, and harder material. The four ranks are:

• Anthracite: The highest rank of coal. It is a hard, brittle, and black lustrous coal, often referred to as hard coal, containing a high percentage of fixed carbon and a low percentage of volatile matter.
• Bituminous: Bituminous coal is a middle rank coal between subbituminous and anthracite. Bituminous coal usually has a high heating (Btu) value and is used in electricity generation and steel making in the United States. Bituminous coal is blocky and appears shiny and smooth when you first see it, but look closer and you might see it has thin, alternating, shiny and dull layers.
• Subbituminous: Subbituminous coal is black in color and is mainly dull (not shiny). Subbituminous coal has low-to-moderate heating values and is mainly used in electricity generation.
• Lignite: Lignite coal, aka brown coal, is the lowest grade coal with the least concentration of carbon. Lignite has a low heating value and a high moisture content and is mainly used in electricity generation."

----------------------------------------------

I see The Donald recently announcing that the US had discovered a 5th type of coal.

* Beautiful clean coal

Benefits include no harmful affects in the way of CO2, air pollution or respiratory diseases.
Can't find much research on it but said to be formed from the fossilized remains of unicorn poop.

There is another one.
Our environmentalists or other opponents of Talga's practical approach to saving massive amounts of C0² are downgrading the world's best graphite deposit as a coal mine.

 

[BrainShit]

Yes Manny I am starting to get excited.
This time next year I'll be really excited.
The year after that I will be super excited.
The year after that I will be ecstatic.
No one said this life changing technology would be a get rich quick scheme ...... or did they... Pantene.
I personally believe that the snowball is gathering speed.
Have a nice week to all.

EXCITING TIMES .... right?

Do I need to vote before the AGM or can I vote after the AGM?

 

[MDhere]

Do I need to vote before the AGM or can I vote after the AGM?

You can vote at the agm or you can vote before. I have already voted online.

 

[cosors]

Well then, today I'm looking forward to the comments on the comments I can't see.

Think You might’ve misunderstood my post. I’m not desperate…just pointing out what we’ve urgently needed for some time now, and still need soon, if we’re ever going to see a meaningful SP move. Nothing more than that. I’m sure You also would agree on that.

I do believe BrainChip is making steady progress and following its path..that’s clear to me and probably to most holders. But like I said: the real question is, do they actually want to share that success with us retail investors?

I’ve seen plenty of companies string investors along, only to drop a bombshell at a meeting that no one saw coming. A company doesn’t need to be listed to be successful… learned that lesson already.

From a market perspective, it’s hard to read the signals (unless you’re one of the constant bashers or pumpers). The talk about a move to the US could easily be a smokescreen… maybe even a soft warning: “If it doesn’t work, we’ll delist.” Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve seen something like that. After a few years in the market, you stop getting emotional and just treat it like business.

It’s not about my own startup or ego…. it’s about the money I’ve put in. And I’m not pointing fingers at management, board or someone…just to be clear. These are simply observations from someone who’s been around a while.

And one more thing I’ve learned: never vote the same way a basher would!

All good, cheers, manny

Had a chance to email Steve Liebeskind today via email supplied, it took him 2 min to return my email, after having a chat to him I am 100% glad I voted for him. His concerns i feel properly reflect current shareholders concerns, no wonder the Current Directors dont want him on the board. He has a honest concern about the direction this company has taken over the last five years. He will be thorn in the current directors sides I feel. He I feel is chasing accountability at all levels. His concerns are valid ie the unnecessary foreign exchange loss in the last quarter. Which current directors deemed acceptable to loose a couple of million of shareholders money. So quickly swept under the carpet nothing to see here hope no one mentions again especially at the AGM. Give him a yell you may be suprised. The question I forget to ask is would he be willing to instigate a shareholder loss of confidence vote on T Dawe as the IR department head. If Management and directors are not reading the room by the votes already cast well god help us all. I believe PVDM should abstain from this vote. If you have concerns now’s you’re chance, management have clearly shown they don’t give a fuck about shareholders. Don’t be fooled by the uptick in small news items being conveniently released by management to hopefully cool the air at the AGM. AS soon as the agm is over it will be the cone of silence again back to their old routine.

I am not fussed one way or the other whether he is elected as a director or not.
He will be subject to the same rules as the others regarding BOD confidentiality etc.
Directors duty is to the company itself. While this inherently means the long term value and interests of holders a directors primary allegiance is to the company.
Directors are primarily focussed on the big picture issues.

The BrainChip 2025 Summer Internship Program is out.

As every year, the University of Washington’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is encouraging their students to apply - and in previous years, a number of UW students did in fact succeed in landing an internship with our company.

Sadly, though, as usual, this document would have benefitted from proper proofreading pre-publication, sigh…
“XX projects we are looking for Interns”?!
And Project 4 is missing altogether?!

Depending on their respective project, the incoming summer interns will be assigned to various BrainChip engineers such as Ritik Shrivastava (a UW alumnus himself), Dhvani Kothari, Kurt Manninen…


The project I found especially intriguing is

Project 8: Neuromorphic Compute in the Cloud
Leverage cloud FPGAs for large scale event based computation

Objectives:
To design and implement a large scale neuromorphic event-based network on a cloud FPGA infrastructure

Description: BrainChip currently has multiple neuromorphic architectures which run on local FPGAs. This limits the size and location of networks for testing and demonstration. In this project, we would take one architecture and scale it up to very large size, and run it on cloud FPGAs from Amazon or Intel.

I don’t think so because we are a licensing company

OK ...This is all going on at HC....Thoughts???? Interesting!!!

All a bit strange!!!!

Do not despair, the news flow has only started. Expect news to accelerate from here.
There has been numerous client and tech validation events since Sept'24.
There has been a real step up in news since Jauary'25.
19/9/24 aTENNuate
2/10/24 AKIDA Pico
10/12/24 US AFRL
16/12/24 Frontgrade Gaisler License
8/1/25 Edge AI Box Eco system
9/1/25 M2 Form factor
17/1/25 BRN/QV/Lockheed-Martin 'game changing' cybersecurity
25/1/25 Quarterly report - Bascom Hunter in Dec'24 purchased $100k of AKIDA 1500 chips
25/2/25 Onsor Epileptic seizure detection
1/4/25 Information Systems Laboratories for radar research programs
2/4/25 BRN partners with RTX's Raytheon re; US AFRL contract
2/4/25 Frontgrade launches launches new GRAIN line and wins SNSA contract
17/4/25 Arquimea search and rescue partnership
24/4/25 Integration of AKIDA into Andes RISC-V embedded cores
29/4/24 Collaboration with Chelpis-Mirle on security solution

So much progress and yet very little ASX news flow.

Board is far too bull headed with respect to their position on disclosure and it is hurting shareholders financially every single time a capital raise is completed with a market cap one could argue is lower than it should be.

 

[Stable Genius]

Is there a country not looking to use us in their space program: NASA, ESA, ANT61, FG x 2, GRAIN.


We already know we’re working with OHB Hellas.

Looks like a little bit of Akida inside this.

Another project getting closer to revenue.

If it actually is Lou, and how actually on an anonymous forum could we know, then he has as much right as anyone to express a view.
If it is Lou, he holds around 5 million shares so it comes with a little more clout than the average share holder.
It is interesting and potentially suspicious to my mind that this poster, whether real or not, emerges just now, in support of Steve Liebskind who is busy behind the scenes talking to individuals, but is yet to make a public statement to all share holders.

Brainchip opened my eyes… now I know exactly what to do… I don’t need to be a millionaire to afford all these things!!! Tomorrow I’m going straight to the Lambo dealership and telling them I want a Urus for a year — just to see if it really lives up to the hype… and then I’m heading to the real estate agent and saying I want a villa for a few years to test whether my family can really settle into the place… all for free of course — I mean, I don’t want to buy a pig in a poke… I don’t want to end up with something that doesn’t actually satisfy me or my family… nope, not me!

Sarcasm off.

Maybe if you have any doubts you should email Steve im sure he will be happy to answer any questions

Yes, sure he does, creating doubts and stir up sxxx.

I don't see anything about him supporting this Steve L dude?

Who is he anyway, Steve?

He should come out of the closet and present himself?

Mate no offence, but have you been living under a rock? You don't know who Steve Liebeskind is, a previous NED in our company?

And all the posts on here recently, talking about his nomination as a NED?

And yes, on the HC posts (posted here), Lou says "yes I absolutely support SL"
