Congrats on a massive Series A funding round to CTO 2020 National Winner Coreshell led by Jonathan Tan and the team! It's a long journey, but you're making great progress #CTOAlumniSuccess
It’s been a tumultuous period for EV battery technology, so we’re thrilled to announce our $24M strategic financing round to scale production of the most affordable anode technology on the market. Our micrometric Si anode is the only nearterm pathway to reducing the industry's reliance on Chinese graphite and be cost competitive in the US and EU *without* tariffs or government incentives. It’s time for the EV industry to mature into a profitable and affordable mass market product and we’re proud to be a part of that transition. A major thanks to the Ferroglobe PLC team for sharing our vision of delivering an industry-ready Silicon anode and furthering our partnership. Big thanks also to our other investors: Entrada Ventures, Foothill Ventures, Helios Climate Ventures, Translink Investment, Lane VC, Trousdale Ventures, Asymmetry Ventures, and Zeon Ventures Inc.. Check out the full TechCrunch article to learn more about how we’re addressing supply chain challenges and reducing costs for EVs: https://lnkd.in/gJzSZQWG #Coreshell #EVbatteries #SustainableTech #Innovation #ElectricVehicles #CleanEnergy #BatteryTechnology #Investment #MetallurgicalSilicon #TechCrunch
