Electric Avenue: North America's Role in the EV Transition

Breakout Session

Hosted by Bay Area Council Economic Institute + William Davidson Institute at University of Michigan

This panel aims to explore North America's pivotal role in the transition to electric vehicles (EVs) and the growing influence of China in the automotive sector. With EV demand skyrocketing, North America must enhance regional collaboration and fortify supply chains across Mexico, the U.S., and Canada to stay competitive on the global stage. Industry and policy leaders will come together to discuss the current challenges and opportunities within the EV value chain, highlighting the importance of innovation and strategic partnerships in securing a sustainable electric future.
