Turning plastic waste into the future of transport with Ira Munn of Ierospace Industries

The next event by PDMA-NZ (Product Development & Management Association NZ) & NIP (Newmarket Innovation Precinct)

At PDMA-NZ we believe New Zealand can be an example to the world in sustainable growth and innovation practices. A company that shares this belief is Ierospace Industries led by Ira Munn.

Ierospace Industries is developing 3D printed electric vehicle kits using upcycled plastics. Their present effort is the Drop, a single-seater, weather-protected, three-wheeled, motorway-legal electric vehicle kit buildable in less than twenty person hours with an estimated range of over 321km (204 miles) that’s making news around the world.

Ira Munn has presented a TED talk on the Drop 3D-printed electric vehicle. New Zealand’s first 3D-printed electric car is being built in Otaraand Ira an Entrepreneur engages New Zealand’s Youth While Developing the 3D Printed Electric Car.

Energise your Tuesday night, join us and learn more about Ierospace's idea of changing the world, one drop at a time.
