Meet a future colleague

Jeremi – 45 years old – Technologies, Applications & Research Division Manager. Joined us in October 2005.

“I am passionate about space and technologies. As the Technologies, Applications and Research Division Manager, I am thrilled to see a number of areas where Space Applications is recognised as a key player, competing more frequently with much larger companies.

Working with skilled and dedicated teammates is really motivating and satisfying for me.  We pursue our activities with a lot of dedication and eagerness to overcome the extra difficulties. Over the decade, it has been with this mind-set that we have tackled major challenges and continue to achieve impressive results.

All in all, I get a warm feeling when I look back and see our achievements over the years.”
