“Simplifying the charging process is key for EV drivers. Standardized payment methods and unified systems make charging easy and stress-free. It's time to make 'plug and charge' the norm,” says First Harmonic Group.

If you have the chance, attend a talk with our very own Moazam Khan. He’ll share how our founders go further, faster.
I am honored to be part of this panel discussion, hosted by IEEE Entrepreneurship this Sunday, October 13, at the Tech Transfer 3.0 Summit of Expand North Star at GITEX Impact by GITEX GLOBAL Largest Tech & Startup Show in the World in #Dubai! 🌟🇦🇪🔬🛰 Science underpins the future competitiveness of any industry, and deep tech is the basis for most new industrial technologies, and a necessary element in addressing current societal and environmental challenges. It is also core in navigating the extraordinarily volatile industrial environment. Many of the most dire issues facing humanity will be solved via the industrialization of research, and high-tech based innovation. As a frontier tech investor, the commercialization of research and novel innovation is crucial, and a place I spend a significant amount of time. We can probabaly all name a handful of institutions that do tech transfer really well, or relatively poorly — certainly, there is improvement to be had in certain regions, and globally. I am looking forward to a deeper conversation around #technologytransfer with esteemed co-panelists Prof. Dr. Ashutosh Dutta, Chief 5G Strategist, Director of Doctor of Engineering at The Johns Hopkins University, Founding Co-Chair of IEEE Future Networks, Dr. Onya Idoko, PhD, Programme Leader & Lecturer at UCL, Dr. Harold Solomon, Principal at Georgia Institute of Technology, Dr. Khalid Elgazzar, Canada Research Chair at Ontario Tech University, and Mr. Moazam Khan, Director at Velocity, to be moderated by Dr. Maged Ghoneima, Founder & General Partner at M Empire Angels. Thank you to Mohamed El Dallal, Vice Chair of IEEE Entrepreneurship, for the invitation, and all of the time and effort you have put into this high-caliber event. #GITEXImpact #GITEXGlobal #IEEE #Innovation #TechTransfer #LabToMarket #FrontierTech #TTO #ScienceCommercialization #DeepTech Deep Tech MEA
