SAN DIEGO, April 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dalrada Financial Corporation (OTCQB: DFCO, “Dalrada,” “the Company”), announced today the formation of the Dalrada Home Corp. Advisory Board and named its board members for the new wholly-owned subsidiary that will focus on the development and distribution of heat pumps for residential use.
News of the advisory board immediately follows the announcement of the Company’s entrance into the home heat pump market—a domestic market currently valued at over $13 billion in the U.S. and expected to reach $30 billion in less than 10 years.
CEO and Founder, Brian Bonar, formed the advisory board with measured strategy, bringing aboard members offering a wealth of knowledge and specialized experience to the Dalrada Home Corp. team from unique business sectors, including energy technology, renewable energy, and global branding.
“The new advisory board brings together some of the brightest minds in the energy and sustainability fields. With their guidance and support, Dalrada Home Corp. will develop sound business plans and forge a clear path toward executing ideas and reaching our ambitious goals,” said Bonar.
The advisory board includes the following members:
