Webinar Speakers

Sheryl Ponds (Founder/CEO @Dai Technologies Corporation)
Sheryl Ponds BSME, MBA is the founder of Dai Technologies Corporation, a woman and minority-owned electric vehicle (EV) charging installation consultancy ensuring access to public and at-home charging. Founded in 2018, DaiTechCorp’s model is a turnkey solution that helps residential and commercial properties adopt charging stations into a property, connect to programs and benefits, and install EV stations. 

Like many EV drivers dealing with Range Anxiety (RA), the anxiety of being stuck on the road due to the limited availability of EV charging stations, Sheryl was initially hesitant to purchase an electric car. But instead of waiting for change to come, Sheryl turned to entrepreneurship and took matters into her own hands. 

Sheryl believes she is destined to build the fueling infrastructure for EVs. This STEM and MBA grad has enjoyed careers in manufacturing, banking, economic development, and commercial real estate.
