Memorable Moments: What Investors Loved About Our Last EV Trip

  • You can have some idea of how things work, but the best way is to come see it for yourself.

    Ryan Soh, London.

  • I just returned from a mind-opening business trip to China, and I am still struck by the experience. Our organizers took us on a compact tour to the country's most innovative EV companies. It was a trip worth every minute. From the moment I landed in Shanghai, throughout the bus trips to companies in Suzhou, Changzhou, and Hefei, up until our final Robotaxi experience in Shenzhen, I was astonished by the pace of modernization: 'China speed' ... Our organizers' local connections and excellent planning made this deep dive into corporate culture and daily life in China not just possible but very enjoyable indeed. As they say, 'seeing is believing' - and Techbuzz trips truly make you see.

    Dr. Robert Dahlke, Germany.

  • I think every day of this trip has upped what we thought was possible in China and the world, and has been very eye-opening… each day has been better than the previous one. On the final day we saw BYD, and the scale of what they’ve built is truly astounding.

    Karthik Swaminathan, India.

  • We learned so much about the whole ecosystem of EVs. Not just the car itself, but the whole infrastructure behind its entire production.

    Lucas Sacerdote, Argentina.

  • For sure China is way far ahead of the curve versus the rest of the world. It’s going to be a great challenge for the Western world as well as India to compete with them.
