Now in LA, he is launching PLUS. PLUS makes D2C foldable, take-with-you EVs packed with patented design features that make owning one better — and cheaper — than using shared systems.
7:45 - 8:15pm: Sabrina Williams of SEED. SEED is a benefit corporation helping buyers and underserved farmers grow smart and feed more, by democratizing access to agriculture technology and carbon-credit markets. For urban and developing communities, SEED's technology represents a future of agriculture that historically only big corporations have had access to.
