Battery development software company About:Energy has been selected by Innovate UK as one of 14 companies to participate in the Global Business Innovation Program (GBIP) – an initiative to accelerate business growth globally and drive innovation for battery technology – in South Korea.
The 12-month program includes the opportunity to attend five days of activities in South Korea, which will involve visits to academic organizations and industry, in Seoul and Ulsan. This will include a visit to the British Embassy and attendance at the Interbattery Exhibition.
Focused on de-risking and accelerating the growth of the battery sector, the UK-APAC program is coordinated by Intralink, an international business development and innovation consultancy specializing in Asia.
Kieran O’Regan, COO and co-founder of About:Energy, said, “South Korean battery expertise has been at the heart of About:Energy’s technology development, after several years researching the performance of cells from LG Chem, subsequently open-sourcing data that has become widely used in industry and academia.”
