Electric aircrafts - our reality: Dufour Aero / Episode 146

Staying in the topic of transportation, welcome to this episode where Thomas Pfammatter, the co-founder at Dufour Aero, shares his experience in aviation, entrepreneurship, and why not to procrastinate with your ideas. The transportation system worldwide is developing and transforming rapidly, and Dufour Aero could be the next big advancement. Thomas Pfammatter is a helicopter pilot and an experienced entrepreneur. After 30 years of professional helicopter flying, he decided to build the first electric aircraft with his partners. This triggered the project of a vertical take-off and landing electric-based aircraft. Seeing how great it flies and how advanced electric propulsion can be for aviation, they designed this new aircraft as a sort of combination of an airplane and a helicopter. The team behind Dufour Aero has built an aircraft that is not only able to take off and land vertically, but also flies with speed and stays safe, ecological, and cost friendly at the same time. This aircraft is intended to be used as a new mode of transportation at a cost that would be affordable for everyone.

The high precision solution for your device: Fixposition / Episode 144

This Monday, we take you to the Entrepreneurship Labs of ETH Zürich where Cédric talked to the CEO and co-founder of Fixposition, Zhenzhong Su. Beside talking about Fixposition and self-localization technology, he talks about his take on the Swiss startup ecosystem, gives his perspective of China’s ecosystem, and shares why he ended up choosing to work and live in Switzerland. Originally from China, Zhenzhong Su was involved in establishing a drone startup. His passion for learning brought him to ETH, where he recieved his Ph.D. in Geomatics Engineering with research focused on low-cost, high-precision, real-time Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning. During his studies, Zhenzhong Su had an idea he thought was worth commercializing. While conducting his research, Su met three other co-founders through the Pioneer Fellowship and Fixposition was born. Fixposition makes high-precision positioning systems based on satellite navigation. This technology offers centimeter accuracy even in an obstructed environment. Fixposition’s algorithms can serve self-driving cars, drones, and even robotics. Application varies from agriculture to a drone light show. In addition, if you are interested in hearing more on the comparison of Swiss and Chinese ecosystems, finding the passion for what you do and fostering it, make sure you watch this episode!

Tech, Lifestyle and The Power of Youth: Nordic Eye is A Unique Fund /Episode 142

Today, we are thrilled to share an interview with another successful and super inspiring venture capitalist. Cédric visited Crypto Valley in Zug in order to meet with Lars Tvede, an investor at Nordic Eye. Watch the video to learn how our guest got to meet royal families, about his book “Entrepreneur,” and a lot more! As an engineer and economist, Lars Tvede has gained experience in several different (but still related) industries during his career. The first professional steps he made were in marketing. He then expanded his interests to finance and spent part of his career in investment banking and as a hedge fund manager. Two years ago, he co-founded a venture capital fund and he says it’s the most fun thing he has ever done! Tvede has also written 15 books so far, and this interview was the perfect opportunity to ask him about the latest one: “Entrepreneur”. Nordic Eye is a venture capital fund that is mostly focused on the early-stage companies from the technology sector and, unlike the majority of funds, they also invest in lifestyle companies. The team behind Nordic Eye values the potential of young people and the ideas coming from them. That’s why they have special advisory boards within their fund, consisting of students with outstanding backgrounds.
