2025 Agenda

Cambridge VIP’s 4th Annual

Battery Venture, Innovation & Partnering

Financing Innovation & Commercialization of Emerging Technologies

March 18-19, 2025


The Battery Venture, Innovation & Partnering conference will be held in conjunction with the 42nd Annual International Battery Seminar & Exhibit, a successful and established technical event of 2,000+ delegates.

In recent years, it has become increasingly difficult for battery start-ups to raise cash and find alternative sources of capital, a stark change from just a few years ago. The trend toward LFP and lower cost batteries coming out of China, the slowdown of the EV market, and political uncertainty all add to the challenges in the financial markets.

It’s never been more critical to bring together leading battery innovators—CEOs/founders, early and late-stage investors, with corporate executives from both the battery and the automotive side, to discuss what the future of financing and innovation looks like for batteries, and what companies need to do to survive and thrive, particularly in the US.


Coverage will include, but is not limited to:

  • Hear from early and late-stage investors on what they are seeing and trends in this market
  • Hear from a diverse set of investors from VC to PE, government, and alternative sources of funding
  • Attend to learn from seasoned CEOs who have faced funding challenges
  • Learn how the successful companies have survived and thrived
  • Hear about future trends and direction from the corporate venture and executives at the leading OEMs and battery manufacturers

If you have a compelling story to share with innovators, investors, and executives attending this boutique event, we encourage you to submit a speaking proposal.

Please note that the vast majority of speakers are identified, selected, and invited by our summit chairs and advisory board members. As we receive a high volume of submissions, we regret that Cambridge VIP can only be in contact with those deemed optimal candidates.
