The electric vehicle/battery revolution is here - and an auto industry that dates back more than 125 years is now being forced to change and adapt on an unprecedented scale. As the automotive world pivots, and supply chains are completely redefined, new “critical materials”, like Nickel, are being prioritised - while at the same time, “sustainability” is reshaping corporate governance and in many cases, innovation itself. Investors are taking notice, recognizing that the rise of EVs represents a once in a hundred years kind of phenomenon, a la the internet - with seemingly limitless potential and opportunities.

(Note: be sure to listen to Episode 4 that addresses Nickel's wild blow up in price, subsequent to these interviews)
