I have seen others mention that Intel has the "money and resources" (we can include IBM too for that matter) to throw at their neuromorphic processors. As an engineer, throwing more money or people into a solution isn't always fruitful. I've rephrased a common saying for neutrality, "a human fetus can gestate in approximately nine months, but nine human fetuses cannot gestate in one month".
Depending on the scale of the problem, it might be able to be broken down into smaller pieces that can be worked on in parallel. Additionally, a competitor may spend a lot of money buying time to work around patents researching different approaches. Having more people brainstorm certainly increases the chances of coming up with ideas faster.
I do not believe that the individual components of Brainchip's neuromorphic processor compose a large enough design to continuously scale by adding more people. The competition will have to focus on achieving the same features of Akida using a technical approach that does not infringe upon Brainchip's patents.
At a time when it was unsure as to whether or not neuromorphic processors would be a viable solution, Brainchip found one. They are the first to the commercial market and while they are competitive with their current features set, they are also working on their second and third generation of neuromorphic processors adding even more enhanced functionality.
As long as they don't become complacent due to their current successes, they can continue to profit and acquire the resources to keep innovating their product line. At this point, it is a race to saturate the market with their brand name while continuing to innovate and stay a step ahead of their competitors.
