Hi Everyone,
Some of you know this but I'm chairing the next Berkeley-Stanford CleanTech Conference on Cinco de Mayo. Our topic is on electric transportation with a special panel on China - Opportunities and Challenges. I'm excited to have the CEO of Simbol Mining, who will speak to the issue of lithium and China's rare earth metals policy.
Please help spread the word! Also, we're seeking sponsorship funds, so if anyone has any contacts, I would love to hear about them.
See you at Jane's,
Elaine
