They have pulled in $68 Million of investment capital and have expanded to over 500 employees. Their new contract with HP will surely help the growth of their company and the market of their Green Super Batteries.

Consumers depend on their notebook computers as much as they do because they enable mobility whether being used for leisure or work activities, said Boston-Power Founder and CEO Dr. Christina Lampe-Onnerud. To truly empower users with that type of flexibility, batteries have to last longer and provide more dependable performance.
