Tiago Peres is a Satellite Communication and Navigation Officer at the Portuguese Space Agency, with a focus on satellite telecommunications and satellite navigation. His fascination for space and his ambition to build spaceships came up at a very early age. That’s why sitting in the chairs of the Instituto Superior Técnico (Technical University of Lisbon) comes as something natural. He holds a master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering from Instituto Superior Técnico.

Before arriving at the Portuguese Space Agency, he accumulated technical experience in GNSS, working at Deimos Engenharia, and also as a consultant at Airbus Defence and Space and the European Space Agency.
