The event kicks off with students giving a solid intro to the e-mobility scene, breaking down how this isn't just about expensive electric cars, but a total shift toward e-scooters and e-bikes as the ultimate "last-mile" solution for a hilly campus. After that, the fellows take the stage to keep it real, sharing their personal journey in the program—from the hustle of weaving through campus traffic on an e-bike to the pure satisfaction of never having to hunt for a parking spot or drop a dime on a "carro público." To wrap it up, we dive into the facts about the Puerto Rican reality: showing how, despite our perfect weather for riding, our infrastructure is still way too focused on car-only roads, leaving a massive opportunity for the next generation of engineers and urban planners to step up and build the bike lanes and charging hubs we actually need to stay mobile across the island.
