The workshop, co-located with Supercapacitors Europe, will focus on the marketing opportunities for SMEs in the light carbon vehicle, light aircraft and smart mobility sectors and how these companies can rapidly get their products to market.

Companies will learn the importance of collaborating with other companies and joining cluster groups to create their own supply chains in this highly competitive environment.

Case studies from successful innovative European SMEs currently operating in the electric vehicle industry will be presented - they will share their experiences, company strategies and objectives and achievements so far. Project partners will disseminate the results from EU R&D projects, including recommendations and best practice. Information will be provided on the future policy direction, sources of EC funding and opportunities for public private-partnerships.

This free to attend workshop is aimed at European SMEs who are developing or planning to develop technology and products aimed at the electric vehicle supply chain.
