Speaking to the importance and timeliness of the event, James Frith, Head of Energy Storage at Bloomberg New Energy Financeand chair of the keynote panel "Meeting Demand for EV Battery Production in Europe; The Rise of the Giga Factory," said: "The European battery manufacturing industry has been turned on its head over the last three years, going from almost non-existent to the second largest market globally. The Digital Days event will be the perfect opportunity to find out how the companies at the heart of this change envisage the next decade." "At the rate the advanced battery and H/EV tech sectors are progressing in the European region and the number of obstacles that require an immediate solution, we felt it was critical to orchestrate industry connection before our next in-person event in November," said Rob Shelton, group event director, The Battery Show & EV Tech Europe Digital Days, Informa Markets.
