Exploring & expressing grief

Support groups and events, as well as creative therapies and professional counseling, are all ways in which Pathways supports individuals dealing with grief and loss.

New chief marketing officer Jon Jacobs was most recently a vice president at Wildcat Discovery Technologies Inc. and previously held roles at Ford Motor Co. (NYSE: F).

Solid Power has existing connections to Ford. The auto giant was joined by BMW Group and Volta Energy Technologies LLC, a venture-capital group based in Warrenville, Illinois, to lead a $130 million Series B funding round that closed in May. 

Solid Power is in the midst of a go-public strategy through a merger with special purpose acquisition company Decarbonization Plus Acquisition Corp. III (Nasdaq: DCRC).
