Laura Geiman is a business development director in the Clean Energy business at W. L. Gore and Associates, based in Newark, DE. Gore’s Clean Energy’s mission is to improve life through innovative material solutions that enable the decarbonization of the transportation and energy sectors. Since 1994, Gore’s proprietary Proton Exchange Membranes (PEM) and related technology have pioneered hydrogen fuel cell commercialization throughout major industrial market sectors, lowering total cost of ownership in applications ranging from stationary power generation to global long-haul transportation. Gore’s PEM technology is also a critical component used in water electrolyzers to produce green hydrogen. Green hydrogen produced utilizing Gore’s PEM can decarbonize hard to abate sectors, such as chemicals, transportation, and other heavy industries like steel manufacturing, which generate a significant amount of global greenhouse gases. Gore’s PEM technology is a critical component for hydrogen fuel cells and water electrolysis.
Laura holds a BS degree from Jefferson University, in Textile Technology and Material Science. She attended The University of Virginia, Darden School of Business to participate in their Executive Marketing program. Holding primarily Business Development and Sales Leadership positions, she has spent more than 3 decades working on the commercialization, adoption and advancement of polymer products. She is an expert in proton exchange membranes for fuel cell applications and is utilizing her technical knowledge and market insights to support customer success for PEM adoption in the water electrolysis market.
Laura represents Gore Clean Energy on the Fuel Cell & Hydrogen Energy Association and the Mid-Atlantic Clean H2 Hub.
