Fastned Charging Day is coming up this week. It is primarily focused on investors. To reach as large a public as possible, the format of an online show was chosen. The complete business of fast charging theoretically can be explained in this three-hour presentation.

In theory, your most exclusive and best content goes behind a paywall. But then fewer people read it! We just don't like paywalls, and so we've decided to ditch ours. Unfortunately, the media business is still a tough, cut-throat business with tiny margins. It's a never-ending Olympic challenge to stay above water or even perhaps — gasp — grow. So ...
