Hello,
I'm thinking about applying to SA 2026 programs from an energy interest perspective.
I was wondering what types of material (newsletters, podcasts, 10-Qs, etc.) to read in order to understand the sector better.
What should I be doing from now until Feb-March to know this industry better?
Thanks!
