Frankfurter Vermögen takes part in Neuromorphic Computing Day in Jülich!

Senior Portfolio Manager Jürgen Brückner and Yusef Shadid from Frankfurter Vermögen attended a conference at the Jülich Research Centre this week to find out about the latest technical developments in neuromorphic computing.
In the current chip architecture, the processor and memory are physically separated and data is constantly transferred between the two units. This leads to energy and time losses, which cause high costs, especially when resources are scarce. Neuromorphic computing refers to a completely new chip architecture that will replace the previous structure based on the von Neumann architecture in the future. This will significantly increase the performance and speed of the chips. Equally important is the considerable reduction in energy consumption. This will reduce the heat generated by the chips and drastically reduce the immense amount of energy required for cooling.
Scientists from various countries came together at Forschungszentrum Jülich to present their research results. However, the Jülich Research Centre itself and the entire ecosystem in the region are also driving forward the development of a neuromorphic chip with great vigour and have already developed a prototype.
The topic is also extremely interesting for Frankfurter Vermögen from an investor’s perspective. Companies that successfully develop such a chip could generate considerable pioneering profits for investors. In view of the high complexity of this new generation of chips, it is extremely important to follow developments closely. Proximity to the leading scientists with expertise in this field is a valuable support.
