Straubel (“Straubel”), who later became Tesla’s Chief Technology Officer, learned of Musk’s interest in the development of an all-electric automobile. Following this conversation, he introduced Musk to Tom Gage and Al Ciccone at AC Propulsion, a company that had built an all-electric concept sports car call the Tzero. Musk was enthusiastic and encouraged Gage and Ciccone to put the Tzero concept into production. Though Musk was unable to persuade AC Propulsion to mass produce the Tzero, Gage offered to give Musk’s contact information to two groups who did have such an interest, one of which included Eberhard, Marc Tarpenning (“Tarpenning”), and Ian Write (“Wright”).
