The 2020 Shareholder Meeting
Last year, for 2020, the shareholder meeting had two parts. The first was the formal part of the meeting to discuss the "FOR" and "AGAINST" issues for Tesla, of which there were 7. The second part of the meeting was Tesla Battery day. It will be interesting to see what Tesla has in store for 2021, besides the formal part of the meeting.
