Last month, Tesla announced a random drawing for in-person invites to the shareholder meeting. Several Tesla shareholders have shared that they’ve received invites. My friend, Gail Alfar, was one of them. Gail was also with me when I interviewed Elon Musk on July 1. She kindly hosted me in Austin.

Gail shared the following thought with me about her invitation.

“It’s super exciting to drive past Tesla Giga Texas in Austin. I can imagine how exciting it will be for hundreds of people to walk inside this amazing Gigafactory on August 4. This is where the future Cybertruck will be made. I believe Cybertruck is an essential part of Tesla‘s mission. I believe that Tesla will mass-produce Cybertrucks at a steady pace. Getting to witness this in person and get to be a part of this through supporting Elon Musk and owning Tesla stock. Well, it’s an extremely great honor!”
