On August 28th, the VinFuture Foundation's InnovaTalk webinar, themed "Advances in Battery and Fast Charging Technology," attracted the participation of nearly 150 scientists from 12 countries worldwide. The event provided invaluable insights into the latest developments in battery technology and its potential to revolutionize various industries.
Professor Rachid Yazami envisions a future where battery and fast-charging technologies hold immense potential. Advancements in materials, charging methods, and battery management systems will lead to batteries that are longer-lasting, safer, and more affordable, thus accelerating the adoption of electric vehicles and shaping a sustainable future.
Prof. Xuejie Huang, Professor at the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (IOP/CAS), states that the future of batteries lies in creating solutions that are longer-lasting, more affordable, safer, and lighter. These advancements will not only improve the performance of electric vehicles but also contribute to a more sustainable future.
“Most of the major scientific prizes are traditionally given in developed economies. Therefore, it is significant that a big prize such as the VinFuture Prize is now given in Vietnam, an emerging economy. This demonstrates to the world that emerging economies can be equal partners in the innovation game.”

I’m a multi-disciplined kind of person. I’ve done mathematics. I’ve done physics. I’ve done economics. I’ve done biology. I’ve done computer science. And in the same way, I am not a single-book kind of person nor a single-genre person. I very much believe in bringing diverse perspectives together, including both fiction and nonfiction.
“VinFuture Prize celebrates science and technology innovators on the basis of their contribution to humanity. It is the first of its kind to originate in the global south and is unique in bringing a global and specifically humanitarian focus to all prize categories.“

We have to find a way to explain complex things to them and try to inspire the new generation, because less and less people want to go into science. It is difficult. They want easy money or something, and they don’t realize that money won’t make you happy. I don’t think about these prizes. I respect and I understand the importance of the prizes to bring attention to the science. That’s what is important to me, the science, and to inspire people.
