Interest in STEM since school time, later on studied civil engineering.
Your organization field and mission
The Cluster of Mechatronics and Automation (CMA) is one of the first deep-tech clusters in Bulgaria, established in 2006 to leverage the industrial capacity of its members (private SMEs, R&D institutions and NGOs) in the fields of Industry 4.0, mechatronics, automation and robotics. It is an innovation-driven deep-tech cluster that promotes IoT and Industrial IoT (IioT), factories of the future, resource sharing, energy efficiency, sustainable and resilient business models and smart growth. Mutual trust is CMA’s fundamental ground, along with the benefits for both its members and the society, towards an efficient integration of Industry 5.0 and Society 5.0.
Please tell us briefly about your role in the company / at your organization:
Managing the Cluster projects, fund raising, deliver support services to the member companies in the field of innovation, twin transformation, entry on new markets, access to finance.
Your interest in STEM
Role models valued by me are those of professionals – any role model where the person has the expertise needed for that role model. When this is combined with natural leadership, it has the potential to become inspirational.
Your studies
If one has the inner call for a given area to study, it and further develop in that area – follow it.
You at work
Twin transformation is an integral part of mechatronics, which is why the Cluster companies are drivers of digital transformation, primarily Industrial Internet of Things (IioT), AI and other advanced digital technologies.
Don’t follow others’ models. Extend your learning experience from them while creating your own one.
Your point of view
Technology can empower anyone as long as one knows how to develop and use it.
Engineering is an excellent and prospective area for both women and men as long as they are professionals. It is a wrong perception that it this field belong primarily to men.
Have more developers and producers of microelectronics that at present.
To finish with
Respect, team work, high level expertise.
To leverage the win-win collaboration.
Only God knows 🙂
