The Automotive Shift to Electric Vehicles: Making New Friends but Keeping the Old

Morgan will also discuss how the movement to EVs is effecting automotive OEM's future plans as well as how it effects the existing supply chain.

Agenda
- Challenges and opportunities for states who put state-specific EV-related mandates in place
- Arrival’s decision to focus on the Charlotte region for their initial US expansion projects and headquarters
