Join this IMD Founder Series talk with François Randin, a trailblazer in electric mobility, as he shares his experience as a pioneer in the EV marketplace.
Randin was an early believer in the demand for Electric Vehicles and decided his entry point was charging stations, in 2009. Was that too early? How did he make it to two successful exits in 2021 and 2023? What went wrong and what went right?
With his passion for cutting-edge product design and large charging network architecture, he ultimately founded and built two profitable companies (‘Green Motion’ and ‘evpass’), navigating M&A and crucial fundraising over his 14-year journey in the energy transition sector. The talk was held on campus at IMD and recorded live.
This fireside chat is hosted by Ian Charles Stewart, co-founder of WiReD Magazine and IMD Executive in Residence.
