Event - Powering the Future: Unlocking the UK’s Battery Potential, 25 June

We were delighted to host a panel discussion and networking event at our new London Office, bringing together experts and professionals from across the battery industry.

The evening began with a warm welcome from Sam Bailey, who then handed over to Callum McGuinn. Callum chaired the discussion and introduced our fantastic panel of four industry specialists:

Together we explored a range of current and emerging topics shaping the future of the battery sector. The conversation was lively, insightful, and thought-provoking, covering everything from UK government funding initiatives and the latest trends in venture capital investment to challenges in supply chain security and the increasingly important areas of battery repurposing and recycling.

One particularly popular theme was the pivotal role of innovation in driving the next generation of battery technology. It was clear from the discussion just how fast-paced and collaborative this area of industry has become. Our subsequent Q&A session further broadened the scope, covering topics as varied as policy support, infrastructure readiness, and market opportunities.

Following the panel, guests stayed on for drinks, canapés, and informal networking. It was a fantastic opportunity for attendees to continue the conversations sparked during the discussion, meet others working across different areas of the battery sector, and forge new connections.

We're incredibly grateful to our panellists for their invaluable expertise and for taking time out of their busy schedules. It was wonderful to have so many engaged participants. We thank everyone who joined us!
