Tiago Peres is an Industrial Relations and Projects Officer at Portugal Space, 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) come as something natural. He left IST with a master’s degree in Aerospace Engineering. Before arriving in Portugal Space, 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.
