Assen

The New Age in Aviation Vehicles

City center to city center

City center to city center, emissions-free
The all-electric Lilium Jet takes off and lands vertically, enabling it to deliver connections from city center to city center with direct flights of up to one hour. With no infrastructure required between take-off and landing, connections can be established across any geography, at less than 1% of the cost of a similar high-speed rail link. Shuttle flights between high-demand locations will keep aircraft load factors high.

Nick Shisnenkov

Software Engineer

During his years at the University of Sofia studying theoretical physics, Nick was involved in multiple on-campus activities including an early research in neural network simulations in the context of complex problem solving, numerical methods and simulations of dynamic systems. His passion for programming led him to further his studies in Information technologies at New Bulgarian University. To support himself while studying, he started developing games and interactive apps for the web early on. Due to the high demand for interactive experiences his practice rapidly expanded in to a successful software development and consultancy business catering blue chip clientele of the Fortune 500s since 2003.
