The panel will further discuss the marquee company partnerships that Xos has already developed, and the company’s opportunity to accelerate efforts to decarbonize commercial transportation following the completion of its merger with NextGen.
Dan Ives will host the Q&A with Xos’s CEO Dakota Semler, CTO Rob Ferber, CFO Kingsley Afemikhe, and COO Giordano Sordoni. Key topics will include an overview of Xos, the company’s technology, and business model. The event will feature an interactive Q&A.
Xos’ technology is purpose-built for the commercial market, and Xos vehicles have been deployed in field operations since 2019, with a customer base that includes UPS, Loomis, Lonestar, and Wiggins. With a lighter, cheaper batter option designed with a 200,000 mile usable life, the trucks are predicted to save 49 megatons of CO2 through projected vehicle deliveries made by 2025.
