OpenAI wrote the largest check in a $250 million funding round for Merge Labs (valuation $850 million), which researches brain-computer interfaces (BCI). Renewed interest in neurotech could boost publicly traded Onward Medical, which is working on an ARC-BCI system and already has a therapy system on the market. Onward has a market capitalization of about €250 million; earlier test results are seen as promising, so investors see share-price upside if interest in neurotech increases. » Más en deraktionaer.de
