The Ford Research and Innovation Center in Palo Alto opened in January 2015 to accelerate the company’s innovation in connectivity, mobility, autonomous vehicles, customer experience and big data. Dragos Maciuca, Technical Director, Dave Kaminski, Lab Director and a group of researchers welcomed today the Band of Angels Energy Special Interest Group (SIG). We enjoyed the exchange of ideas and look forward to collaborating on technologies and startups. A big thank you to Larry Kelly, the Energy SIG leader for organizing the visit.
