Ian Wright

CTO, DIMAAG

Ian Wright is CTO at DIMAAG and a pioneering entrepreneur, innovator and technology 
visionary in high-power electrification, energy systems, and electric transportation. Best 
known as a co-founder of Tesla Motors, he led vehicle development and helped advance 
battery thermal management innovations that improved the performance, safety, charging 
capability, and longevity of modern electric vehicles. Wright's vision extended beyond 
engineering. As part of Tesla's founding leadership team, he challenged long-standing 
automotive conventions, including pioneering a direct-to-consumer business model that 
transformed how electric vehicles reached customers and influenced the broader 
automotive industry.
Following Tesla, Wright founded Wrightspeed, pioneering the electrification of heavy-duty 
commercial vehicles through advanced energy storage systems, high-power electric 
drivetrains, and intelligent power management. Over a career spanning more than 30 years, 
he has developed breakthrough technologies in battery systems, controls, energy 
management, and electric propulsion.
Today, Wright is applying that expertise at DIMAAG to solve one of the AI era's most critical 
infrastructure challenges: delivering resilient, scalable, grid-ready power for nextgeneration AI factories. His work centers on power stabilization, intelligent energy 
management, and grid-to-chip architecture that enable hyperscale AI data centers to 
connect reliably to the electric grid.
Wright brings a unique perspective that spans electric vehicles, industrial electrification, 
power systems, and AI infrastructure. His insights help organizations understand how the 
convergence of energy and computing will shape the future of AI data centers, and largescale electrified systems
