Dr. Peerawan Wiwattananon
Founder & CEO
Our visionary founder, Dr. Peerawan Wiwattananon, brings over 15 years’ experience across space, medical devices, and advanced R&D and engineering. She offers a unique perspective, owing to her multicultural background—born in Asia and living and working throughout Europe and the U.S. for over 20 years. She has proven to be adept at bridging technical excellence with clear, accessible communication across diverse teams and stakeholders.
Peerawan’s distinguished career includes groundbreaking work at NASA Langley Research Center, where she led the conceptual design of the innovative “Heliogyro Solar Sail Spacecraft” for deep space exploration while successfully securing competitive research funding. At CERN, during the COVID-19 pandemic, she seamlessly transitioned complex underground laboratory infrastructure projects to remote work while maintaining stakeholder satisfaction and delivering detailed infrastructure integration technical specifications for equipment 100 meters below ground.
Dr. Wiwattananon's impressive background extends to medical device innovation at Helbling Technik and aerospace systems engineering at RUAG Space, where she contributed to NASA's Orion spacecraft through the European Service Module 2 project and contributed to the breakthrough "FlexLine" separation mechanisms for small launcher vehicles.
