Nadia is the heart of the technological development and long term tech vision of the company. She has a degree in computer science and worked in different development positions for 3D printing companies. She led the production of the first large format concrete 3D printer and printed several large-scale artificial reefs worldwide.

During his masters in Mechanical Engineering at the Technical University Delft he developed a strong mechanical background which he wants to employ to work towards a sustainable future. With the drive to work in the future on both an engineering and a social level, by working on projects in both fields. Bringing them together to on the one hand learn people about what technology can change for the better, but more importantly to practice engineering with a strong societal awareness. 

Paolo is a civil engineer from Italy. His expertise lies in development of parametric algorithms which are key for creating modular artificial coral reefs. Paolo is collaborating with Coastruction to ensure that projects are well-engineered and 3D printed structures withstand the tough conditions of Mother Nature.

Emanuele has been a construction worker for almost two decades. As a former process manager at D-Shape he was responsible for the development of the 3D printer production logistics. He is our external expert during printer construction.

With a Master's in Urban Management and Development, specialization in Urban Environments, Sustainability and Climate Change and a decade of experience, she supports stakeholder engagement and builds investment relationships, helping with targeting SDGs and marketing the company. She researches sustainability, carbon credits and other climate change issues.
