Agassi is the CEO of a company called BetterPlace which is a company looking to provide electric car networks for countries.

What I found so fascinating about the talk is how in 18 minutes he sums up the issues faced with our dependance on oil and illustrates a clear path of how to change that. I haven’t seen someone one take it from soup to nuts like that in such a short span of time.
