Speaking at the award ceremony, Kristin Keating, Ernst & Young LLP Entrepreneur Of The Year Program Co-Chair for New England, said, “We are proud to recognize the achievements of Dr. Lampe-Onnerud.”
“I am humbled and thankful to be receiving this award in the presence of a remarkably impressive group of innovators and entrepreneurs,” said Dr. Lampe-Onnerud. “Boston-Power’s success would not have been achieved without the determination and dedication of our entire team as well as our customers and partners. It is on their behalf that I gratefully accept this honor.”
In March ’09, Boston-Power became the first U.S.-based firm ever to provide battery technology to a global notebook PC vendor. The result of a three-year relationship with HP, Boston-Power’s Sonata battery cells serve as the foundation for a new ‘green’ battery HP has branded the Enviro Series of Notebook Batteries.
