From EV to eVTOL: Engineering Realities of Electric-driven Mobilities
Electric transport is accelerating from road to sky, bringing new challenges in design, simulation, and scale. This session is for engineers, founders, and innovators after practical insight, not hype, on what’s next for electrified mobility.
This 60-minute session will explore:
How can batteries and hybrid systems be engineered to serve both mobility (EV, eVTOL) and grid stability without compromise?
What are the real infrastructure constraints for EVs and eVTOLs, and how are you finding practical routes around them?
Which modelling and simulation tools are actually helping you cut prototyping time and cost? Can you cut time and cost? How?
Can hydrogen mobility scale before refuelling networks mature, or does it need a new deployment model?
Where are the biggest unmet needs across energy storage, charging, and air mobility that large incumbents haven’t tackled yet?
Speakers:
Ben Macdonald, Managing Director of Nodum
comes with a strong background in sustainability and environmental advocacy, Ben leads the development of Nodum’s patented technology, designed to make EV charging more accessible, efficient, and community-focused.
Tilak Dissanayake, Founder of Ants Global and a veteran Product Design Engineer with nearly four decades of experience. Having worked with leading companies such as Boeing, Xerox, and multiple Silicon Valley start-ups, he now focuses on advancing innovation in Asia through projects like a fully robotic air cargo network.
(Moderator) Tommy White, Co-Founder & Commercial Director of Xynapse Labs
We look forward to having you join us!
