Startups” was held on 30th April 2021. The seminar aimed to share the
Free Electrons (a global energy accelerator program formed by the world’s
leading global utilities) that connected the world’s most promising startups,
to enable an effective and systematic way to scan, scout and engage innovative
technologies across existing assets to make operations safer and more
efficient. Firstly, Ms. Sindy Tse

depended on their project with legal compliance.
