Qpacity
Building the research and planning for an energy business
I helped develop Qpacity’s startup and commercialization work around a proposed graphene battery business. My contribution connected industry research, market opportunities, business plans, financial scenarios, partnership strategy, and communications for prospective investors and commercial partners. The work shows how a technical proposition can be organized into a business with defined markets and discussion materials.
