Big news out of the Big Apple this week! The CONVERGE event in New York City on July 12 is being presented by Nissan and Outpost, and will feature art installments, a private concert and, most importantly, profound discussion on the future of technology.
The CONVERGE event will feature industry leaders participating in workshops and keynotes that place a focus on progressive technology and, particularly, electrification in the automobile space. Notably, the event site is close to the ABB FIA Formula E Championship race in Brooklyn, where the Nissan-sponsored e.dams racing team will compete to showcase the future of racing power in a doubleheader season finale.
"CONVERGE and Formula E racing allows Nissan the opportunity to highlight our leadership in the EV space and our commitment to moving people to a better world through innovative technology and Nissan Intelligent Mobility," said Allyson Witherspoon, vice president of marketing and communications, Nissan North America. As far as current technology, Nissan’s LEAF is now the first electric car ever to surpass 400,000 unit sales, making it arguably the best-selling EV of all time.
