Of course one of the most significant connections in my opinion is that Alexis Black Bjorlin SVP & GM BROADCOM is also one of two board members listed for Celestial AI which was founded by David Lazaovsky (CEO) formerly the chair of POET. And of course co-incidentally POET’s Vivek Rajgarhia is the technical adviser for Electo-Optical Packaging. The company remains in stealth mode as per the website https://www.celestial.ai/team . Of course the relationship with POET is pretty obvious as per POET’s presentation https://poet-technologies.com/docs/presentations/POET_Needham%20Tech%20Conf_01-14-21_Final_1.pdf page 5. Where the development partner for optical computing and edge applications is a US based start-up.

Also of interest the previous Broadcom slide identifies the use of remote laser sources. Something POET co-incidentally designed to provide highly efficient local and remote light source coupling to Silicon Photonics.
