Yes, it's for tapping out the AKD2500.
Good news but it cost BRN money to have it done, obviously, part of the 2.5 million they set aside for it.

HI Manny,
Can you please explain how you can balance these 2 seemingly glaring contradictions:
1) we are at STILL at the Early Adopters Stage heading towards Early Majority Stage which unfortunately involves no shortcuts, when
2) we were all told there would be an explosion of sales in 2021/ 2022
?
B
If you ask me… there was a massive explosion of sales… but not like we expected… you have to read between the lines….
Look at the share price since this statement…SALES
Hi Bravo,
This may sound familiar. Akida 1 was designed to do a specific range of tasks very well. Back then we had a newly minted SoC, Akida1 (4-bit + ARM Cortex) available for early adopters in silicon. It was significantly more capable than the original 1-bit, which itself was revolutionary, but we had Akida 2 under development, and it promised much greater capabilities with its 8-bit architecture. The company was also experiencing a temporary liquidity embarrassment. It needed to develop Akida 2 as there was an emerging requirement for the 8-bit precision. So the company "right-sized" its sales department and gave the chip sales force the opportunity to develop their personal capabilities.
At the time, many of us felt that management was selling Akida 1 short by switching to IP-only., but financially they had no alternative. The company engineers needed to burn the candle at both ends to develop Akida 2, and unbeknown to the shareholders, Akida 2 included a total ground up design of the architecture to incorporate TENNs which was still corporate confidential information.
So pulling the plug on the Akida 1 SoC stymied the 21/22 sales explosion. IP was a much harder sell with a multi-year time to market.
As it turned out, Akida 1/1500 has proven its worth, but, by the same token, there may well be competitors whose performance, if not equivalent to Akida 1, is "good enuf".
There are real world applications for the first generation of Akida including medical and defence applications.
The microDoppler radar SBIR and its commercial offshoot, see-in-the-dark radar, opens up an entirely new greenfield market. The minimal latency QV CyberNeuro0RT edge box is is initially aimed at enterprise systems, but I'm hoping it will devolve to personal devices in due course.
Then there is the unconfirmed Starlink SDR/electronic antenna steering (possibly the inspiration for Elon's pie-in-the-sky satellite AI cloud.?) If this proves to be real, we can expect the world to sit up and take notice, even though some of the shine may have come off Elon.
However, TENNs is streets ahead of most of the competition. The only competitor I'm aware of who is doing anything similar is Advanced Brain Research.
In any event, I see cybersecurity as our shortest path to market. The hardware and software are available now. It's just a matter of getting some market traction.
Is it a “Buy” ?

“IBM Spectrum Symphony exists precisely for this purpose and every demo I've put up on LinkedIn over the last couple of months has followed this paradigm. As a dynamic compute platform, Symphony orchestrates AI workloads across the full breadth of an enterprise's infrastructure. That's why I can build a closed loop system that combines the proven capabilities of IBM Quantum and BrainChip's neuromorphic accelerators. That's why we can use foundation models to interpret and explain COBOL without needing to think we have to replace what works day in and day out.”

Hi Bravo, Its new tech and everyone was excited what it could do except when it came to the crunch no one or very few wanted to risk their job or business via adopting AKIDA.
Management and investors underrated the time it takes to progress to move from the Innovation stage 1 through to Early Adopters Stage 2 (us now) and then on to the next stage 3 Majority Adopters.
Everyone got caught up in the excitement of what AKIDA can do but did not understand that in 2021/22 no product actually existed that could use AKIDA quickly. Megachips just started demonstrating robots in Sept'25 and still no sales after 5 plus years.
There is the lenghty engagement to commercial product timeframe as well - although now shortened by AKIDA Cloud and Hubs with pre trained models.
Investors in more recent years should have been aware of the above via research.
Some relief for many Early risk taker investors is the very low price paid at entry.
The other issue is that there is no such thing as a management team that does not 'talk up the company'. That is part of investors DD - buy/avoid/hold/sell/add.
It is what it is and there is never any shortage of excitement over new tech and never any shortcuts to commercial success.
If i dwell on the past i will lose faith in the journey to the future.
Are you still confident of BRN success? I am.

But what does it have to do with brainchip at that point? I don’t see any akida or Brainchip mentioning…

13 cents and desperately waiting for the Watch us Now call to come thru plus Sean's 9 million line of bookings, Akida 3 in the mix ,
Im sick of the shorters dictating but what can we do with no news, if it continues the price will gp under 10 cents

Kevin is certainty talking up Brainchip in bullish terms whilst displaying the IBM Logo = perception that Kevin is talking for IBM and himself.Is it a “Buy” ?

$1.06 minus postage. Makes total senseHope you’ve factored in the postage as well as it’s getting quite expensive these days

Stop talking about yourself bro
On the day IBM share price takes a beating , this post by Field CTO in which out of all possible companies he could’ve name dropped, mentions BrainChip as a possibility to support them hopefully translates into deal soon , hurry up IBM.Is it a “Buy” ?
