          SpiNNaker2 is a multi-processor system on chip based on ARM
          cores, with both neuromorphic accelerator cores as well as
          multiply-accumulate arrays for DNN operation. If you want to
          try your hand at cutting edge neurally-inspired AI, with a
          focus on hardware and sparsity, we'd love to see your
          application. All further details can be found in the attached
