Electric Car Company

How do I get involved with developing Electric Car technology?
I have recently watched the movie,"Who killed The Electric Car" It was great. Now I want to work in this field. I have my degree in BA. I'm not really interesting in going back to school, but wonder what company could I work at to get started?
----------
This is a tough one, because a job in a startup Electric Vehicle company could be risky. On the other hand, I couldn't think of a better time to take a chance on the future of Electric Vehicles. There's a lot of activity in battery research, and prototype electric vehicles.
