EMERGING TECH
START-UP PITCH

The AIBC Summit is all about the future of the emerging tech sector, and our Emerging Tech Start-Up Pitch is the answer to
keeping up with this innovative industry. For the past two years more than 200 start-ups have benefitted from this platform.
Over 100 companies based in AI, Blockchain, Quantum Tech, FinTech, Big Data, and IoT will be selected to showcase their
products and initiatives throughout the event. Each start-up selected will have a 1x1m booth at the Malta AIBC Summit.
The selected 100 will also have the opportunity to be surrounded by top investors and mentors, being invited to lavish
networking dinners as well as benefitting from online exposure. However, the Emerging Tech Start-Up Pitch is only open
to start-up companies, meaning recently launched start-ups that aren’t supported by a public company. The competition
keeps getting fiercer as only the best 10, as decided by an independent panel of judges, will make it through to the Pitch
during the final leg of the Summit. Taking part guarantees valuable insights and critical feedback from the judges although
the prize package will give just one lucky start-up a massive head start when it comes to expanding their business plans.

Turing Industries has been working since late last year “ While there is already
with the Silicon Coast (Shanghai Lin-gang Special Area) fierce competition in
government officials on the preliminary planning for
the new semiconductor tera-fab. The total investment the space, we will turn
will be US$12billion, with the project divided into two to memory-oriented
phases. Phase-I involves US$6billion investment. neuronal computing
Turing Industries have already signed an agreement to meet low-carbon
with the Silicon Coast with the government fronting a
negotiated investment amount to cover a part of the emissions requirements “
phase-I investment. To us that’s a huge undertaking by
the government, and goes to show their commitment to
supporting the Turing tera-fab initiative. The remaining
amount will be invested via a new investment fund also
led by Turing Industries called the Turing Imagine Fund.
Turing Imagine Fund is riding the same Silicon Coast
wave by which the central Chinese government aims to
transform Shanghai into a leading international finance
center with key trials and projects taking place in the
Shanghai Lin-gang Special Area. Turing Imagine Fund is
in the process of negotiating a QFLP fund licence which
will allow Turing to raise funds, with compliance, both
internationally and domestically.

WHAT WILL THE TERA-FAB’S BUSINESS MODEL BE?

At the heart of Turing SMX, (the name of the tera-fab),
is production of non-volatile memory chips for Artificial
Memory Intelligence inference programs and machines.
While there is already fierce competition in the space,
according to our estimate the rest of the tech world will be
switching to memory-oriented neuromorphic computation
within the next decade in response to lowering carbon
footprint and more importantly to brace for an explosion of
computational needs in the post-AI era.

Turing SMX has already signed up partners that are in
dire need of next generation non-volatile memory chips
for their clients in the telecommunications, EV and even
space industries. A typical fab would take at least 5 years
before it sees profitability, however Turing SMX will go
against the stream and break even by year one.

HOW DO YOU SEE SUCH AMBITIOUS PROJECTS LIFT-
OFF AMID THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS?

As Alan Turing put it, “We can only see a short distance
ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be
done.” I wouldn’t say it’s an ambitious project! I regard
ambitious projects as those planning to leave our planet.
All jokes aside, there is indeed a need for Turing Industries
to play a part in the development of a true AI.

DELIBERATIVE DEMOCRACY

In the case of deliberative democracy, instead of simply
voting on every decision, deliberation and discussion
are fundamental to reaching specific decisions. In this
respect there are elements of both consensus and
majority rule involved.

In today’s traditional democracy, officials are elected
and come to various decisions about how things are to
be run. With a deliberative democracy, elections and
voting aren’t the only factor. Instead, it includes key
deliberation and discussion about specific topics. Many
of the people affected by certain decisions don’t have a
chance to weigh in on how things affect them. This isn’t
the case with a deliberative democracy. In fact, these
groups of people are actively sought out in order to
include their opinion.

This concept of democracy is used by Bosagora and
represents huge potential for the blockchain and
cryptocurrency industry.

THE BOSAGORA SOLUTION FOR
BLOCKCHAIN DEMOCRACY

Bosagora has introduced the concept of the Congress
Network, a decision-making body of fully-synchronized
node operators. Collaboration that is both inclusive and
effective occurs among various project stakeholders.
With the Congress Network, things like source-code
development and how to utilise marketing resources
can be decided by voting. Bosagora node operators can
join the Congress Network to participate in all decision-
making processes and contribute to the entire project.

TOKENISATION FOR GAMING CAN GENERATE AN ABUNDANCE 2012, and I started getting really interested in Non Fungible
OF NEW REVENUE STREAMS. IS THIS THE FUTURE OF GAMING? Tokens when Cryptokitties hit the market. At the time I was using
the Stellar blockchain to tokenise assets like Fiat currencies,
Gaming (as in eSports not gambling) is dominated by the big commodities and shares, since the Stellar blockchain offers
players like Epic and Blizzard, but I have heard news recently that some control of assets that is needed in regulated markets and
they are working with or considering working with player-owned it was a lot easier and cheaper to do than getting into Ethereum
digital assets - this will be a growing trend, as and when technology Smart Contracts. I had also created a geoTAG game which
makes it possible. Players want to own what they spend a lot of rewarded users that visited a geofenced area, but it wasn’t on
time earning in game, that they can either sell or use in other blockchain at the time.
