Three industry leaders joined CRN at an Essex supercharging station to swap stories on their electric vehicles for the upcoming CRN Tech Impact show.

Held at 4pm on 15 September, the show will see 76 finalists duke it out across 12 sustainability-related categories.

But the 70-minute event will also feature mini documentaries, panels and interviews on the hottest topics in the arena of environmental sustainability and social impact.

For our flagship film this year, we invited leaders from Computacenter, Softcat and Jigsaw24 to join us at Gridserve's Electric Forecourt in Braintree - known as a Mecca among EV car enthusiasts.

The trio swapped stories on their electric car fleets and discussed the net zero challenge faced by their respective companies and the industry.

The full ten-minute film will be aired during the show on 15 September (register to watch here)
