In this session moderated by San Francisco Chronicle business editor Owen Thomas, experts discuss the potential profits and perils for investors in the massive shift to electric and self-driving technologies. How are legacy car companies positioned to benefit? Will Tesla and other new entrants carve out a significant share of the market? Should Alphabet, Apple and other technology companies be considered as ways to play this shift? Panelists include UC Berkeleys Susan Shaheen; Cruise investor Jim Scheinman; and Elliot Katz of McGuireWoods, an expert on self-driving law.
