Building Battery Teams: Powering Electrification and The Circular Economy

In this podcast episode, we’re joined by Kunal Phalpher, Senior Vice President of Corporate Development at Cyclic Materials. 

Throughout the podcast we delve into Kunal’s passion for the battery materials industry, electrification and the circular economy, where he highlights where the initial interest came from earlier in his career. 

We talk through the battery industry, how it is constantly evolving with new trends continually evolving. Kunal and Elliot discuss core trends and challenges within the current battery landscape. 

Kunal has held a number of advisory positions throughout this career, consulting and leadership, all of which he has supported businesses scaling up, driving strategy and accelerating growth plans. Throughout the podcast he shares insights into this and his biggest career highlight. 

Start up’s aren’t for everyone, and it takes a particular type of personality to succeed working at a start up. They have many advantages and can be extremely rewarding, but it can also present challenges – Kunal shines a light on what it’s like to work at a start up organisation. 

As careers progress, it can often be hard to strike a healthy balance with work and family life. Kunal and Elliot share their perspectives on this, both as working fathers excelling in their careers.
