From developing drones to protect the Galapagos National Park from shark finning to operating some of the world's largest drone delivery networks in cities with millions of inhabitants, drones have been a deeply personal part of my journey. Discover how my team and I are creating a new layer of drone-based logistics systems that enable instant deliveries anywhere within cities, reducing infrastructure needs, costs, and emissions. Pedro Meneses's journey into aerospace was not just a pursuit but a calling, at age 3 he fell in love with things that fly, while spending hours daydreaming in front of his local airport. He obtained a degree in Aerospace Engineering at ERAU, USA, with a 4.0 GPA. Venturing into the professional world, he contributed to major aerospace companies such as BE Aerospace, Gulfstream, and Adam Aircraft, where his innovation led to five patents.
