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.

WE ARE POSSIBLY IN THE MOST DIFFICULT BUSINESS CLIMATE SINCE THE GREAT DEPRESSION. AS COVID-19 SWEEPS ACROSS THE GLOBE, TURING INDUSTRIES IS POISED TO KICK OFF A NEW WORLD OF TECHNOLOGICAL REVOLUTION. FROM THE TESLA GIGA SHANGHAI TO THE TURING SEMICONDUCTOR TERA-FAB, THE EAST IS QUIETLY BREWING THE WORLD’S NEXT CENTER OF INNOVATION. STEVE CHAO, CHIEF OF TURING INDUSTRIES, GIVES AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW FOR THIS ISSUE’S COVER STORY.

WHAT EXACTLY IS TURING INDUSTRIES? I founded the Turing brand back in 2015 and experimented with a consumer electronics project called Turing Phone. Having gone through almost three generations of the security-based device, I turned my attention towards the core underlying technology, that is the computational chips and software programs which enable it to be useful. When I say useful, I’m really referring to the

redesign of semiconductor chips; prominent players such as IBM TrueNorth, Intel Loihi, and Manchester University’s SPiNNaker project have all experimented with a brain-like computing flow which defies the legacy von Neumann architecture. Turing’s approach to a non-von Neumann model is to focus on a nonvolatile memory-based computation chip and integrating it with an ASIC processor to form a hybrid semiconductor chip.

artificial intelligence functions nowadays common amongst those components powering cameras, maps, music, video, and payments apps. The focus of Turing Industries has been exactly that and we’ve been working at the forefront of AI computing research ever since.

PICKING THE NEUROMORPHIC BRAIN Turing Industries has been working in the neuromorphic computing space since 2018. We believe the holy grail of achieving human brain-like neuromorphic computation lies within In-

“ We believe the holy grail of achieving human brain-like neuromorphic computation lies within In-memory computing ”

memory computing. That is to design a new inference architecture that emphasizes memory bandwidth and locality by moving less data faster and with much lower power. To achieve the best results in artificial intelligence, machine-learning engines must figure out the fastest inference with the lowest power possible. In-memory computing works by storing weights in a memory and getting a multiply-accumulate by accessing the memory with the neuron activations. This is essentially moving into the analog domain by utilising the memory cells for analog signals rather than digital ones in order to drive the power down. The inference then happens in the memory by taking digital data and turning it into analog values to drive the memories before it uses analog bit-line output to be converted back into a digital format. In short, it is a way of removing the data movement between the CPU and memory.

Therefore, I called it Artificial Memory Intelligence (A.M.I.).

SHANGHAI RISING: CHINA’S SILICON COAST To achieve Artificial Memory Intelligence we plan to build a terafab producing non-volatile memory technologies for memorybased neuromorphic computing needs. The first country which came to mind was China; the country has been beefing up its semiconductor capabilities over the last decade or so. Turing Industries hand-picked a few regions in China before it landed in a special municipality, namely Shanghai. Shanghai, a city with a population just shy of 25 million, opened up to Turing Industries and we were brought to the attention of government officials managing the Shanghai Lin-gang Special Area within the Shanghai Pilot Free Trade Zone. The area is a well-established industrial zone with established semiconductor companies and the most famous recent

2020年的世界正处于1929年以来最艰难的商业环境。新冠病毒席卷全球，直接波及到 航空、零售、体育娱乐等行业，并深刻影响到整个经济和社会的发展。就在整个世界 陷入混乱和停滞时，我和我的团队带领着图灵工业公司继续逆市前行，将在亚洲的心 脏地带，曾经的东方巴黎——上海，铸造新的“硅海岸”，开辟科技革命新前沿。如 今，上海这座历史名城正在加速追逐、赶超时代发展的脚步，成为类似迪拜、多哈等 千兆（Giga）项目的中心。从特斯拉Giga超级工厂到图灵半导体Tera-fab晶元厂，世 界正在见证新一代创新中心的悄然崛起。

图灵工业到底要做什么？ 早在2015年，我征得图灵家族的支持创立了图灵品牌，并 尝试做了第一款消费电子项目——图灵安全手机。历经三 次迭代开发后，由于机缘的巧合，我把目光转向了底层核 心技术，也就是赋予所有电子产品灵魂与肌体，使其成为 有用的计算芯片和软件程序。这里我所指的是已经在自动 化工厂、机器人、自动驾驶以及地图、音乐、视频和支付

Turing Industries has been working since late last year with the Silicon Coast (Shanghai Lin-gang Special Area) government officials on the preliminary planning for the new semiconductor tera-fab. The total investment will be US$12billion, with the project divided into two phases. Phase-I involves US$6billion investment.

Turing Industries have already signed an agreement with the Silicon Coast with the government fronting a negotiated investment amount to cover a part of the 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 LIFTOFF 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.

“不论科研还是应用都将转向面向记忆 的神经元计算，以应对低碳排放要求” 图灵工业从去年底开始与上海临港新片区政府密切合作，双方现已正式签署相关协议。 初步规划，“硅海岸”的京工厂项目总投资额将达120亿美元，整个项目分两期建设：一 期工程涉及投资60亿美元，根据双方签署的协议由上海临港新片区政府出面协商投资额 度，并安排支付部分投资。这对图灵工业来说无疑是巨大而实在的承诺，充分表达和证 明了他们对图灵京工厂计划的支持。剩余部分将由图灵工业公司发起并领导的“图灵奇 想基金”负责筹集。图灵奇想基金作为整个项目的有机组成部分，将借助上海打造国际 金融中心的东风，申请QFLP基金牌照，并通过正规合法途径在国际和中国境内募集所需 发展资金。 至于为什么要落地上海我想答案已经很清楚了，因为上海就是实现“硅海岸”梦想的理 想之地。 TERA-FAB的商业模式会是什么？ 图灵SMX（图灵工业的京工厂名称）的核心业务是为人工记忆智能推理程序和机器生产 非易失性记忆芯片，虽然当前业界竞争强烈，但根据相关领域专家的共识及我们的估 计，未来十年内，不论科研还是应用都将转向面向记忆的神经元计算，以应对低碳排放 要求，特别是应对后人工智能时代对计算能力需求爆炸式的增长。 目前图灵SMX已经通过研发合作建立了足够的技术和产能储备，精心设计出循序渐进的 最佳产业化路线和投资管理模式，与电信、电动汽车甚至是航天等行业的客户就提供下 一代非易失性存储器芯片确立了合作关系并签署了相关协议，实现了未雨绸缪。一般的 晶圆厂至少需要5年时间才能看到盈利，然而图灵SMX将在第一年就能实现盈亏平衡。 在全球性危机下，何以逆市起飞？ 正如艾伦-图灵所说的那样，“我们只能看到前方的一小段距离，但我们可以看到很多事 情要做”。在我的意识中“硅海岸”不是一个雄心勃勃的项目，我认为一个雄心勃勃的 项目是指那些计划离开我们地球的东西。抛开一切玩笑，图灵工业最求的是在真实的人 工智能的发展中发挥作用。

We have seen the global market slump in the last and the same as in any war-time scenario, where mass psychological breakdown causes the market to crash. I’m not saying the current pandemic isn’t a severe one, what I really meant was that given the scientific capabilities of the era we live in, there will be a cure to both the outbreak of the disease as well as to the global economy. What we shouldn’t do is pause, but move forward as the project will lift off by itself if you plan it right. Lastly, If you have

DEMOCRACY: NEW KID ON THE BLOCK 民主：新生事物

BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY WAS BUILT TO COUNTER A LACK OF FAITH IN THE CURRENT FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS.

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 decisionmaking processes and contribute to the entire project.

THE START-UP SURVIVAL STRATEGY WORDS BY RAVNEET KAUR

初创公司的生存策略

A

ccording to Forbes earlier this April, COVID-19 ramifications for start-ups have already begun to hit globally. Investments in start-

ups have plummeted, and it’s predicted that this year alone, 28 billion dollars worth of start-up investments will disappear. Unfortunately it doesn’t end there, as many companies weren’t prepared for working from home. Companies like ZipRecruiter have been forced to cut 40% of their staff, and OneWeb filed for bankruptcy amid the crisis.

Not all companies are made equally in this disaster, some are thriving. Companies focusing on webinar and cloud-based tools have quickly seen a spike in users as companies are forced to move remotely. Refocusing your time onto new marketing tactics, especially ones which drive direct conversions, can set you up for success now and build assets for long-term growth into the future.

VIDEO MARKETING This strategy can be through online streaming, webinars, LIVEs, and creating videos for your company. The numbers support this, as 70% of consumers say they’ve shared videos put out by a brand, and 52% say that watching videos on the product makes them more confident in online purchasing decisions. Live videos can be used to show product demos, and behind-the-scene moments of the brand to build your brand’s community.

Try your hand at webinar tools like On24 or Zoom conferencing. If budget allows, these tools will provide additional features and help engage your online community in new and unique ways! Facebook and Instagram stories are also a great way to not only attract attention but also repurpose video content you may already have.

FEATURE 专题报道

The somewhat juxtaposed pairing of medical cannabis and blockchain technology was actually right in the midst of a growing trend whereby blockchain and AI were increasingly being used by the medical cannabis industry. Some of the applicable uses have included ensuring the quality has been verified by a trusted lab, the ability to create a secure system for seed-to-sale tracking, and monitoring the growth and shipping of the cannabis.

The most recent show, held in November 2019, in Malta, was the first step towards the eventual expansion to, and merging with, Asia. The three-day show also served as a close to a jam-packed year of shake-ups and consolidations dedicated to talking about the implementation of theories discussed during the previous year. Grammy-award winning artist Akon even showed off his multiple talents, first by speaking about bringing Africa into the blockchain world with his Akoin token, then by wowing the crowd with a live performance on the closing night.

The big names were not only reserved for this most recent show, as the AIBC summit has an illustrious history of bringing established earth-shakers to the

Our biggest challenge was to find our first big client. It was difficult because start-ups always need to show that they are growing fast if they want to appear attractive to investors.

展望未来，无论是短期还是长期来看，Photocert将会有什么 准备？ 我们已经能够在保险（自我索赔程序、自我入职）和资产融资（自 我检验）领域找到牵引力，并且在短期/中期内寻找进入新市场的 机会；我们还与计算机视觉和深度学习算法合作，从而发现图片中 的“隐形”痕迹。从长远来看，我们的目标很明确：让人们再次相 信自己亲眼看到的一切。 除了建立信任之外，Photocert还可以影响公司应对违规行为以及 管理流程自动化的能力。这对公司和个人的决策过程有何影响？ 这对我们的客户而言非常重要。例如，就保险公司而言，我们不仅 可以防止欺诈，还可以改善理赔流程，降低成本并改善客户体验。 我们可以通过了解他们的问题并寻找可以利用我们产品的合作伙伴 来做到这一点。例如，我们可以使用经过认证的图片来估计汽车 的损坏程度或确定物品的类型和价值，从而简化房屋财产保险的入 保流程。

“视觉操作就像是不断进化 的细菌。对我们来说，解决 问题的最佳方法是预防” 用户是否可以简单地将Photocert的API整合到他们的应用程序、网 络平台和遗留系统中？ 即使对于遗留系统，这也非常简单。当我们雇用软件开发人员时， 我们的招聘过程其中就包括向他们提供我们的API，并要求他们将 Photocert整合到现有的APP中。这花费了他们2到4个小时的时间。 我们的开发理念是创建可在任何系统或应用程序中使用，而无需 让客户付出太多努力的产品。我们珍惜时间，同时更珍惜客户的 时间。 您遇到了哪些挑战，是如何克服这些挑战的？ 我们最大的挑战是找到我们的第一个大客户。这很困难，因为初创 公司如果想要吸引投资者，就需要展示出自己有很快的成长速度。 《星球大战》系列中的一个绿皮肤的人物教会了我一个单词，而这 个单词便是这个问题的答案：耐心。 当您拥有新产品时，找到第一个大客户总是很困难。对我们来说， 这更加困难，因为我们有一个专为企业设计的B2B产品，但是我们 知道我们拥有出色的产品——因此，归根结底是我们要有毅力和 耐心。
