Pro Weekly: Future Entries in the Tesla Diaspora Database

Monday we published our Tesla Diaspora Database, highlighting 90 former Tesla managers and executives now in key roles at other makers of electric vehicles and batteries. In the following days, we added a 91st manager, Peter Villa, who had eluded our research. From 2014 to 2020 Villa worked at Tesla, where he helped scale up its Fremont, Calif., factory and later helped build Tesla's Mobile Service offering. He has since worked at electric truck maker Rivian and is now a senior director for energy solutions at Moxion, a maker of battery-powered generators. 

Recent events suggest we’ll soon add more names to the database. At least six senior Tesla executives have left the company in the past three weeks, including Drew Baglino, Tesla’s head of powertrain, who had been mentioned as a possible successor to CEO Elon Musk.
