Commenting about the development, Swapna Gupta, Partner at Avaana Climate Fund,

“Kazam’s hardware-agnostic capabilities position it well to capitalise on the growing demand for EVs in India as well as globally. We are confident that with Kazam’s ability to drive data-led intelligence to the grid, fuelling, and fleet operations, it will play a leading role in democratizing access to EV.”
