Spaceport America Cup

Led the first Swiss team to rank 8th out of 83 teams in an international rocket competition

I assembled and led the first Swiss team to compete in the Spaceport America Cup in New Mexico — an international rocket competition.

RORO is a three-meter-long rocket that was designed and built by students from EPFL, ETH Zurich and the School of Management and Engineering Vaud (HEIG-VD). We entered RORO into the Spaceport America Cup and finished eighth.
