TUEBOR ENERGY TEAM PRESENTS AT AUSA CONFERENCE

The Tuebor team journeyed to the nation’s capital to present the company’s groundbreaking battery separator technology at the 2022 Association of the U.S. Army (AUSA) Annual Meeting and Exposition.

“Building the Army of 2030” was the theme of the meeting, which took place Oct. 10–12 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. In the four years since Army Futures Command was established, the Army’s top priority has been reshaping the force—including equipment, people and doctrine—to meet expected challenges.

The annual meeting included keynote addresses from senior Army leaders, a wide range of forums, and Warriors Corner and Innovators Corner presentations.
