Bob Galyen, Innovative Content Development
Bob Galyen has made a career of pushing boundaries.
The prolific battery industry professional has traveled the world working toward vehicle electrification. For years, he’s served on SAE technical committees, and has previously chaired the Battery Standards Steering Committee.
Currently, Bob has joined the efforts of SAE’s emerging Sustainable Mobility Solutions (SMS) to lead the charge toward sustainable mobility. His contributions are vital to not only SMS, but to industry as a whole.
“It means a lot, because it gives me the opportunity to utilize SAE as a continued platform that I’ve been using for at least four decades to help press the mission forward of electrification, which is the next major movement in the world of mobility,” Galyen said. “I really thank Frank Menchaca, and I thank SAE International for creating such a wonderful platform for people like myself to utilize to make the mission simpler and better.”
Bob was nominated by SMS President Frank Menchaca, who sees no better fit to aid in the push for electrification.
“Bob’s significant involvement in SAE’s technical committees, particularly in the field of batteries, has been instrumental in aiding SAE’s support for this monumental energy transition, which marks the most substantial change in modern transportation’s history,” Frank said.
Congratulations, Bob! Thank you for all that you do.
