Elon Musk’s brain-chip implant venture, Neuralink, has made a significant move by relocating its state of incorporation from Delaware to Nevada, as confirmed by the respective business portals of both states.
The decision to switch the location of incorporation follows closely on the heels of Musk’s announcement regarding Tesla’s intention to seek shareholder approval for a similar move from Delaware to Texas. This shift in Tesla’s incorporation state arose after a judge invalidated Musk’s substantial $56 billion pay package.
While this strategic maneuver presents potential benefits for Neuralink, including favorable regulatory environments and tax implications, it may not be without its challenges.
Legal experts caution that such transitions can trigger investor scrutiny and potential lawsuits, especially if perceived as an attempt to secure Musk’s controversial pay package.
Last week, Musk revealed a significant milestone for Neuralink, disclosing that the company had successfully implanted its first brain chip into a human subject. The patient, reportedly, is recuperating well post-procedure.

In September 2023, Neuralink obtained approval from an independent review board to commence recruitment for its inaugural human trial involving brain implants aimed at aiding paralysis patients.
The trial, slated to span approximately six years, targets individuals grappling with paralysis due to cervical spinal cord injuries or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
While the exact number of participants remains undisclosed, Neuralink emphasized that the trial’s primary objective is to assess the efficacy of its brain-computer interface (BCI) implant.
This innovative technology seeks to empower participants by enabling them to control computer cursors or keyboards solely through their thoughts, representing a groundbreaking advancement in neurotechnology.
Despite the complexities and potential hurdles associated with such groundbreaking endeavors, Neuralink’s recent relocation underscores its commitment to advancing the frontier of brain-machine interface technology.
As the company continues to push the boundaries of innovation, the prospect of unlocking new capabilities for individuals with neurological impairments remains a tantalizing prospect on the horizon.
