Video SiG Cleantech - Electrification of Vehicles
Registration Closed

In today’s world Global Warming is not a word people talk in conjunction with the distant future. It is something that is happening right now. We can see clear and present consequences and this has turned to be the biggest challenge for man in the 21st century.

 TiE SIG Cleantech addresses this challenge by bringing you a program on ‘Electrification of Vehicles’ that talks about clean and green vehicles where we address these questions and more.

- How does one make sense of all of these options - PHEV, EV, serial Hybrid?

- Where is the battery technology - Li Ion, Zn Air, NiMH ..

- How does one solve the distribution stranglehold of the dealers?

- Where is the big innovation beyond batteries?

- How capital intensive is this business and who is going to fund this?

- How do ventures make money in this capital intensive business?

-
What are the employment and additional start-up opportunities in this space?

Join us for this interesting and educational panel discussion.
