NOVONIX is a manufacturer of battery materials and technology. Its mission is to develop innovative, sustainable technologies and high-performance materials to service the electric vehicle and energy storage industries. The battery industry has been growing and evolving at a rapid pace, and the demand for electric vehicles and grid-scale energy-storage systems is flourishing. The need for advanced materials and technologies that support long-life, high-performance battery applications has become increasingly more prevalent. Battery cell manufacturing has gained momentum in the United States, but the supply chain is lagging. NOVONIX anticipated this issue, and its Anode Materials division is onshoring it with plans to bring large volume production of high capacity, long-life synthetic graphite to the US to help meet the demand.

The management has very aggressive plans for growth at NOVONIX. Dana asserts, “We are in the early stages of our company’s lifecycle, with about 200 employees. We plan to grow our employee population by over 500% in the next 3 years! This is both exciting and challenging, as we are truly building the plane while we are flying it.” She is currently setting up the building blocks of the firm’s HR infrastructure, so that it can scale and grow.
