Hi mrgds

It is perhaps the hostility in this very post that is the reason for why you were not on Tony's invite list.

Thanks
The only reason Sean (The Ceo) now wants to talk to Shareholders is because we are getting close to the next AGM.

Hi MRGDS
I find it interesting that you received this response from Tony Dawe:

"His reply- {quote} - Sean and I attend meetings that "I set up" with analyst, professional and retail investors, based on my relationship with each"

and the only objection that others here have is to the retail investors meeting with the CEO and Investor Relations Head.

Apparently they see nothing at all wrong with analysts and professional investors who most likely are directly involved with the legal activity of shorting and trading and not long term value investing are approved of by those who now screaming about a cross section of retail shareholders.

Where is their fake rage regarding analysts and professional investors who have these meetings every day of the week and probably on weekends all around the world.

Where are their allegations that the information that was exchanged between Sean Hehir CEO and Analysts and professional investors accounted for the price movement. They are nowhere to be seen.

As I said they are completely transparent in their motives.

And yet no challenge has been made to the accuracy of the material I posted.

I wonder how many are attempting by their fake outrage to protect short positions.

My opinion only DYOR

Just as with many things that I think receive too much attention, the optics look bad. I'm only venturing a guess here, but I would assume that the CEO made a stop to make an appearance in Australia on his way to South Korea and, during the process, took some time to meet with these analysts, professional investors, and retail investors.

Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I would like to think that the retail investors invited were those in the vicinity and didn't have to travel too far. Additionally, these were probably retail investors who attended meetings, workshops, shows, or communicated with Investor Relations on multiple occasions. Of course, any retail investors outside of Australia that were invited would invalidate that theory. I did not receive an invite.

New investors would have been shown the same horse and pony show BrainChip presents at its investor conferences. I believe it would be illegal for the company to share any insider information with new or existing investors; I don't think that a company that has reached this stage in its commercialization efforts would jeopardize things by doing such a thing.

If anything, I would imagine that the company would probably want to get some feedback from existing investors on how they are holding up their end of the bargain about communications, as they said this would improve as of the last AGM.

I certainly don't believe there was anything nefarious behind this, and whatever was shared was not anything that any potential investor couldn't acquire through contacting the company directly. While researching investors being contacted by company executives, I ran across an article from early 2019 that suggested that a director's engagement with shareholders is not uncommon.

Hi FF

It’s much appreciated that you have shared information discussed from your recall on this apparently informal meeting that you and a select few retail investors were invited to attend with Sean and Co in Sydney on 6/11/23

The only things I would like to put on record in this forum on this apparent informal meeting is I would have loved to have had the opportunity to attend this meeting to meet and ask questions to Sean and listen carefully to how Sean etc responded. Im sure not the only one.
I also trust that the select few who attended have disclosed all key information discussed at the informal meeting (no advantage over other retail investors) and has been been shared to all on this forum (not limited to) and it isn't just selective recall only from attendees. I suggest this may work towards calming the tension with others from recent posts. Im sure you understand where I am coming from amd don’t take it to heart.

Also my recall from previous posts yesterday on this informal meeting is it did last 2hrs approx so I consider that is a solid timeframe to discuss and raise questions with Sean and co.
I would also suggest this timeframe was considerably longer than share holders had at the recent AGM in Sydney as a large group of retail shareholders. My recall is the BRN board members ran out of time and took a number of questions on notice and would get back to them. I’m unsure if that ever happened but happy to be corrected by Tony Dawe as he apparently reads posts in this forum.

Hope all have a good weekend whenever it starts. Mine started this morning. lol

Cheers

Hey @Pope
Hope you are well. I feel the same, Only finding out after going through the post that there was catch, I am guessing, who has been posting a great deal of information and who has been a very vocal actively supporting BRN been invited.
But must thank @Fact Finder for letting us know about the meeting what has been asked.
I am on the same train hard earned salary saving has been going into BRN so do feel frustrated. Cheers

Does anyone know if @Realinfo got an invite after his or his mate's fair dinkum tirade in the last AGM???

Whatever. Thank you FF for sharing the info from the meeting.

I am used to not being invited to events and I would've peed off Sean anyway I am sure with questions he wouldn't like😏

So tell me why so many large organisations are the top shareholders of Brainchip if it's going down the drain

Unless Sean pu

Unless one of the biggest rabbit tricks are pulled out of his hat he is gone for all money and won’t be back next AGM,we had the numbers for strike 1 and now with more shareholders pissed with management and the directors all looking like strike 2 will be a forgone conclusion. As besides you select few who get access should,not get,at least 70 percent of shareholders are pissed,why question and speak to happy investors it’s the unhappy that will vote with their feet.

What I find most interesting is how transparent you and the other manipulators are but I should not be surprised given the proven depths of human depravity.

Personal attacks, threats of spills, pompous claims of self importance and financial sophistication.

Uninformed claims that a spill will remove a CEO.

The ignorance and misinformation rains down like a river.

Go and read the Rules a spill has no implications for the Chairman or the CEO particularly when the spill is led by disgruntled retail shareholders who manage to cobble together 25% on two occasions. The existing Board simply nominates again and are elected because they don’t even have to get 50% of the possible vote at the spill meeting.

The only one’s who win from a spill are the shorts, the manipulators and the trolls.

Retail shareholders will always loose.

Sharing publicly available information has not and will not ever be a cause for concern however ignorance and sinister intent will always be a trigger to be careful as the purveyor is someone not to be trusted.

Those who might be influenced by these flawed individuals should ask why has not one of these individuals challenged or unpicked the information that is contained in my earlier post?

Why have they not identified the untruths?

Why have they not identified and laid bare the price sensitive insider information that they seek to rage against?

Can they not find it?

Why have they not considered that the CEO and Board of a publicly listed company randomly sampling the views of a group of shareholders to understand their concerns beyond the simplicity of the day to day share price might be a good thing?

It was clear that the shareholders who attended in Sydney cut across age, social circumstance and were not selected based on the size of their wallet or shareholding.

Or dare I say what institution they worked at or what broker they break bread with on the weekend.

They gave all the outward appearance of a random selection and not an elite group of so called sophisticated or institutional investors.

Does this failure to only speak with the so called elites offend their collective sense of entitlement?

Do they fear their position as controllers of wealth and hence power may be undermined?

Real people with real concerns such as wives, husbands, children, retirement plans, fixed incomes, mortgages, relatives and friends who had invested on their advice in other words real people who only had one thing in common they have invested their hard earned in Brainchip and had concerns like the genuine shareholders who post here.

While the attacks have been directed at me these warriors of all that is disgusting about the ASX and social media are at the same time denigrating all the other real shareholders who took up this first in their lifetime opportunity to have a voice and be heard by those in charge of the company they have invested in.

Who among this group here would if offered the same opportunity to be heard not accept with a virtuous heart?

It is clear what the individuals who have played the man instead of the ball are about and it is not ensuring that an investment in Brainchip pays off for all shareholders.

My opinion only DYOR though Blind Freddie says their intent is obvious.

Regards
Fact Finder

Glad you are back ff...

Balls out time, when do you think the revenue will realistically start hitting, and in what amounts?

Im sure many of us would love to hear your shot at the stumps on the same.

Also obviously ok if you decline as half the knobs on here will crucify you if you get it wrong, so all good either way mate.

Have a good weekend everyone, hope you are all well and valuing whats truly important in life.... (fyi its time if you didnt know)

Only read it cause they didn't add the word "anyway" :LOL:

It does highlight one the bigger hurdles that we need to get over and we can see that "big push" as they put it, going on this past year and continuing with things like the Uni programs.

Getting this bedded down from an industry view will help BRN no end imo.


NO BENCHMARKS OR STANDARDIZATION​

Because neuromorphic computing is still a relatively new technology, there are no standard benchmarks for this technology, making it difficult to assess its performance and prove its efficacy outside of a research lab. And the lack of standardized architectures and software interfaces for neuromorphic computing can make it difficult to share applications and results. But Danielescu said there is a “big push” among academic and industry leaders to change this.

BrainChip did what other companies also do ... invite influencers. They have to make sure that investors will not vote against BrainChip's management during the next annual meeting. So they probably only invited very active and positive BrainChip supporters who do not criticize the management. My guess.
Incorrect they didn't invite me or maybe they did and i didn't see the email and im positve. But all in all if i have a question i seek the answer. I may have more shares then some of those that were invited so i found it a little odd but am i going to lose sleep over it? And the answer is No. I too along with a few others on here fly for the past couple years to the agm. And will be doing this again this year.
All the company needs to do is do their job and if it also means to talk to key promoters snd influencers that's all part of the job and i don't think any of us small inverstors even up to 3mil were mission it was more the top 20 and key article writers. They later released a investor podcast and i had the privilege of listening to it. Ive effectively saved my pennies to fly next year to the agm. All in my opinion just like yrs but i did want to give you my take on it in this instance.
Happy Saturday fellow brners im an early riser for work. Oneday i won't need to be 😀

Good morning,

Despite what someone recently posted about Pia Turcinov being next to useless, questioning why she is even on our BOD and has she
actually brought anything to date to the Brainchip Holdings Ltd table, whilst receiving an NED's fee.

I found that a rather harsh view, having met Pia she came across to me as a very strong business minded lady, who I know Peter has a lot
of respect for, she has numerous contacts who can open up doors, becoming the first female to enter Brainchip's Board, having the founders
blessing I would have thought was enough.

Who got the WA Minister for Emergency Services; Innovation and the Digital Economy; Medical Research; Stephen Dawson to come to
visit our Perth Research Innovation Centre, I'm pretty sure it was Pia, but happy to be corrected by Tony if wrong.

It's all about teamwork, and Perth has a very solid team, I can't state as a fact, but I'd strongly suggest Pia has already opened up channels
that may have not at this stage been possible, mainly based around Peter's and the Perth teams already heavy workload.

Whatever the actual figure and/or bonus shares she receives, I personally believe it will pay off over the next 3 year period, if the Board
decides to part ways with Pia, I'm sure it will be mutual if it ever eventuates.

Have a great day ahead....Tech
Hi Tech

Great post mate and I mean that.

Why didn't you respond to my post directly
instead of referring to it indirectly via another post several days later? You seem to have a habit of doing that.

If you had of responded to my post directly then everyone reading your post would see exactly what I had said, which is:

The only person I don't want to see re-elected at the next AGM is Pia. Loan, Antonio etc all come with significant semi-conductor industry experience and expertise. They've been there and have done it and consequently have great networks to leverage. Pia has none of that. Pia has very good board level experience and would be suitable for other listed companies, but not Brainchip. I am also annoyed by the fact she heavily promotes events, groups and other ideas on her LinkedIn, but never Brainchip, yet she is paid a significant sum for her seat at the table. Perhaps she does a lot behind the scenes. In that case the company needs to do a better job in showing the value added.

In response to your passive aggressive post:

  1. I did not say Pia was useless at all, i actually gave her a compliment by saying she has very good board level experience.
  2. I think the points I made about her lack of semiconductor industry experience are important as those networks create a DIRECT pathway to the company's that are most likely to sign licensing agreements.
  3. I also think her lack of sharing on LinkedIn is a fair comment. You may not have, but I did scroll back through 12 months of her LinkedIn feed, which took quite a while as she posts ALOT, and from memory she had shared one post of Anil Mankar's in which he had shared a Brainchip post. She also hasn't liked any brainchip content from memory. Her reshare of Anil's post and lack of engagement on Brainchip content made me wonder if she's even following our social media channels at all
Additionally, I have also highlighted a section of my post above which is probably the most important part of the Pia related paragraph, as it serves as a disclaimer for the very rare "constructive criticism" of the company that I have given.

It seems you have missed that disclaimer altogether, or perhaps you did read it which may be the reason why you didn't respond to me directly as then it would be easy for me and everyone else to call bullshit. In any case, your passive aggressive post has proven my final point in that paragraph correct:

Pia does do positive things behind the scenes and therefore brainchip could do a better job of showing the value she adds.

I am now wondering how you know Stephen Dawson visited the research institute, I think I missed that. Also keen to hear more about your strong views on channels that she has opened up, or are these points coming from private emails with Peter? If that's the case then the value Pia is adding is being ring fenced and should instead be advertised a little more widely, which again comes back to my disclaimer.

For what it's worth, you have posted about me in a passive aggressive manner on multiple occasions now. Please don't do that. If I say things you disagree with then call me out, let's openly discuss differing opinions, that is what the forum is for. I think by now you will know that I am a strong and positive supporter of Brainchip. We are on the same team.

Cheers
