Battery innovations born in research institutions take center stage - each team kicks off with a short elevator pitch before joining a panel discussion. Together, they explore what it really takes to transfer scientific breakthroughs into viable products, sharing their own journeys and debating how academia, industry, and policy can work better together to close the gap.
