What Our Alumni Say
Hear directly from a recent participant about their BatteryMBA experience.
“The BatteryMBA gave me valuable exposure to both the technical and commercial dimensions of the battery value chain, from cell chemistry and degradation to manufacturing, system integration, and market dynamics.”
“I gained deeper knowledge across the entire battery value chain, from mining and raw materials to cell manufacturing, applications, and second-life recycling. The diverse, global cohort and expert lecturers made the experience truly exceptional.”
“What a 12-week journey, diving deep into every corner of the battery industry. Co-authoring the case study Mobile Energy Storage on Demand really brought everything to life and boosted my practical understanding of battery storage applications.”
“The programme strengthened both the technical and business perspective needed to navigate the rapidly evolving battery and EV landscape, covering lithium-ion fundamentals, supply chain dynamics, policy, and market shifts.”
“Coming from a business background, I often felt I lacked the technical knowledge to fully engage in battery-related discussions. The BatteryMBA decisively closed that gap, offering a much clearer understanding of how battery chemistries, manufacturing processes, and commercial strategies intersect.”
“Energy transition is no longer a future conversation, it is an operational reality. The BatteryMBA strengthened my perspective on the rapidly evolving battery and energy landscape, exactly when I needed it.”
