Dmitry Lashin is an engineer and entrepreneur who has over 10 years of experience building greenhouses in Russia. In 1991, his father founded the FITO company, which specialises in automating processes in fuel farms. They quickly became the service provider for over 40% of the Russian greenhouse industry. Dmitriy joined the company in 2001, after earning a doctorate in information technology and automation. Concurrently, Lashin started showing and developing his interest in construction of energy facilities. Since then, the company has built energy facilities with power in excess of 500 MW, which is enough to power double the illumination of a 6-lane highway from Lisbon to Moscow. In 2020, FITO completed a $500m deal to merge its greenhouse holding company with the ROST Group. Using this experience, Lashin and his team are now working to develop technical solutions to revolutionise the electric vehicle charging stations market. His startup L-Charge aims to build a scalable network of ultra-fast chargers for electric vehicles in different regions of the world. The charging stations are not tied to the grid and run on gas and hydrogen. A pilot project of ultra-fast mobile charging has already been launched in Moscow. The charging station can be summoned via Telegram-bot to any location in the city, and it charge an electric car for 100 km of travel in just 8 minutes. The company plans to develop the network in other Russian cities, as well as abroad - in Paris, Berlin, New York, Amsterdam and London.

Bartosz Górecki is CEO of the QuickerSim. QuickerSim Automotive helps automotive and e-mobility companies solve thermal challenges in battery packs. We do it by numerical simulations. Compared to large software vendors, we brought to e-mobility industry a simulation tool that predicts temperatures of the batteries within the margin of 1 degree Celsius, gives accurate 3-D CFD results and works almost in real time. We both deliver the software as well work as external engineering R&D company. We have been working with battery pack and EV manufacturers in Switzerland, US, UK and Poland. We also develop custom simulation tools for thermal and fluid flow modelling for engineering teams at OEMs or Tier 1 or Tier 2 suppliers. We usually cut down simulation and preprocessing times to 2-5% with error margin not higher than 3-5%. We did it e.g. for Valeo in Europe or Hendrickson in the US.
