Although there are many innovation programs to choose from, Startup the Future by Galp stood out by giving us the opportunity to work with the leader in public EV charging in Iberia. As a bonus we also attended Web Summit and presented our data science platform for charge point operators at Galp's booth, along with tailored sessions with external consultants.”
