About this event
The latest edition in the EVIES Awards ceremony is right around the corner, and the judging panel is delighted to be able to reveal the shortlist for the 2024 awards. In this exclusive webinar, viewers will be the first to hear about the successful applicants from some of the esteemed judges, along with Solar Media’s Head of Event Content Jo Wilkinson and Current±’s Molly Green.
It cannot be understated that the EV sector has continued its strong growth trajectory across 2024, and as we approach the half-decade point, the need for EVs and the necessary infrastructure, has never been stronger. With a new Labour government ready to strengthen the EV industry, the future for the sector appears to be bright, and it will undoubtedly continue to play a key role in not only the energy transition, but also in providing economic opportunities in global markets.
As with the previous EVIES Awards, this ceremony provides a basis to celebrate all the successes, hard-work, and innovation the sector has instilled this year.
The awards also grant an opportunity to create business opportunities for the future, identifying some of the leading companies in the space, and exploring the possibilities that could be opened through partnerships with successful and eye-catching businesses and/or initiatives.
Current±, the editorial partner of the EVIES Awards, is delighted to host the exclusive webinar on Monday, 21 October.
