Tesla has begun sending out the first batch of 2023 Cyber Roundup invites. The update was posted by Tesla Investor Relations head Martin Viecha on Twitter.
Earlier this month, Tesla announced that its 2023 Annual Shareholder Meeting, also known as the 2023 Cyber Roundup, would take place on May 16, 2023. The event will be at 3 PM CT at Gigafactory Texas. Tesla investors who wish to attend the event in person were encouraged by the electric vehicle maker to sign up online.
As noted by the Tesla executive in his recent Twitter post, the first batch of 2023 Cyber Roundup invites has been sent. He also advised Tesla shareholders who signed up for a chance to attend the event to check their spam folders and RSVP within the next two days.
Tesla shareholders who are selected to attend the 2023 Cyber Roundup in person will be required to confirm their identity with valid government-issued identification. Tesla also previously noted that selections for the attendees of the 2023 Annual Shareholders Meeting are not transferable.
The 2023 Cyber Roundup is shaping up to be quite an interesting event. For one, it is extremely early in the year, especially considering that the 2022 Cyber Roundup was held in August. The event is also quite exciting, as TSLA shareholders will be voting on whether Tesla co-founder and former CTO JB Straubel will be elected as a member of the company’s Board of Directors.
In addition to the possible selection of JB Straubel for Tesla’s Board of Directors, the 2023 Cyber Roundup may also feature discussions about the company’s current and upcoming projects. As such, it would not be unexpected if aspects of the Cybertruck’s manufacturing are discussed during the event, given that its initial production is set to begin this summer.
A livestream link for the 2023 Annual Shareholder Meeting has been made available on YouTube, which can be accessed below.

Tesla Megapacks chosen for 548 MWh energy storage project in Japan
Tesla plans to supply over 100 Megapack units to support a large stationary storage project in Japan, making it one of the country’s largest energy storage facilities.

Tesla’s Megapack grid-scale batteries have been selected to back an energy storage project in Japan, coming as the latest of the company’s continued deployment of the hardware.
As detailed in a report from Nikkei this week, Tesla plans to supply 142 Megapack units to support a 548 MWh storage project in Japan, set to become one of the country’s largest energy storage facilities. The project is being overseen by financial firm Orix, and it will be located at a facility Maibara in central Japan’s Shiga prefecture, and it aims to come online in early 2027.
The deal is just the latest of several Megapack deployments over the past few years, as the company continues to ramp production of the units. Tesla currently produces the Megapack at a facility in Lathrop, California, though the company also recently completed construction on its second so-called “Megafactory” in Shanghai China and is expected to begin production in the coming weeks.

Tesla’s production of the Megapack has been ramping up at the Lathrop facility since initially opening in 2022, and both this site and the Shanghai Megafactory are aiming to eventually reach a volume production of 10,000 Megapack units per year. The company surpassed its 10,000th Megapack unit produced at Lathrop in November.
During Tesla’s Q4 earnings call last week, CEO Elon Musk also said that the company is looking to construct a third Megafactory, though he did not disclose where.
Last year, Tesla Energy also had record deployments of its Megapack and Powerwall home batteries with a total of 31.4 GWh of energy products deployed for a 114-percent increase from 2023.
Other recently deployed or announced Megapack projects include a massive 600 MW/1,600 MWh facility in Melbourne, a 75 MW/300 MWh energy storage site in Belgium, and a 228 MW/912 MWh storage project in Chile, along with many others still.

Elon Musk responds to Ontario canceling $100M Starlink deal amid tariff drama
Ontario Premier Doug Ford said, opens new tab on February 3 that he was “ripping up” his province’s CA$100 million agreement with Starlink in response to the U.S. imposing tariffs on Canadian goods.

Elon Musk company SpaceX is set to lose a $100 million deal with the Canadian province of Ontario following a response to the Trump administration’s decision to apply 25 percent tariffs to the country.
Starlink, a satellite-based internet service launched by the Musk entity SpaceX, will lose a $100 million deal it had with Ontario, Premier Doug Ford announced today.
Starting today and until U.S. tariffs are removed, Ontario is banning American companies from provincial contracts.
Every year, the Ontario government and its agencies spend $30 billion on procurement, alongside our $200 billion plan to build Ontario. U.S.-based businesses will…
— Doug Ford (@fordnation) February 3, 2025
Ford said on X today that Ontario is banning American companies from provincial contracts:
“We’ll be ripping up the province’s contract with Starlink. Ontario won’t do business with people hellbent on destroying our economy. Canada didn’t start this fight with the U.S., but you better believe we’re ready to win it.”
It is a blow to the citizens of the province more than anything, as the Starlink internet constellation has provided people in rural areas across the globe stable and reliable access for several years.
Musk responded in simple terms, stating, “Oh well.”
Oh well https://t.co/1jpMu55T6s
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) February 3, 2025
It seems Musk is less than enthused about the fact that Starlink is being eliminated from the province, but it does not seem like all that big of a blow either.
As previously mentioned, this impacts citizens more than Starlink itself, which has established itself as a main player in reliable internet access. Starlink has signed several contracts with various airlines and maritime companies.
It is also expanding to new territories across the globe on an almost daily basis.
With Mexico already working to avoid the tariff situation with the United States, it will be interesting to see if Canada does the same.
The two have shared a pleasant relationship, but President Trump is putting his foot down in terms of what comes across the border, which could impact Americans in the short term.
