We are pleased to announce the EcoCAR EV Challenge Sustaining Sponsors!
ONE
Introducing new AVTC sponsor: Our Next Energy (ONE). ONE is a Michigan-based energy storage technology company focused on engineering batteries that will accelerate electrification. It’s vision is simple: double the range of electric vehicles; use safer, more sustainable raw materials; and establish a localized supply chain.
For their sponsorship, ONE will be providing mentoring ranging from project management strategies and tactics, to technical subject matter experts to help guide EcoCAR teams in the development of their vehicle, and their university EcoCAR Program alike.
“Programs like the EV Challenge are vital to accelerating the adoption of electrification,” said Dana Bubonovich, director of business operations at ONE. “We are thrilled to be partnering with universities and students with a likeminded passion for a cleaner future and ultimately, helping to power the next century.”
We are proud to welcome ONE to AVTCs. Learn more about ONE here: Homepage | Our Next Energy (one.ai)
Denso
Longtime AVTC sponsor, DENSO, is a leading mobility supplier with a 70-year history of providing advanced automotive components and technology to automakers worldwide. We are proud to announce DENSO’s continued sponsorship of AVTCs with the latest EcoCAR EV Challenge.
DENSO will be providing monetary and in-kind donations as part of their support, including:
- Motor-generators, components key to enabling vehicle electrification;
- Technical support in safety and electrified technology areas;
- Career mentorship; and
- Evaluation support for student reports and presentations.
According to Jim Harkins, director of Electrified Systems Engineering at DENSO, “It takes innovative technology to optimize how society moves, but even more than that it requires people – people from dynamic backgrounds and with fresh perspectives. That’s why we’re thrilled to work with EcoCAR. It gives DENSO the opportunity to help bring in new people to tomorrow’s workforce, and it gives students the chance to learn, grow and gain valuable experience.”
We look forward to continuing this partnership with sustaining-level sponsor, DENSO.
