Managing Director, CTO & Co-Founder

“Fail fast and learn quickly, this is what really drives innovation and speed.”

Daniel Bock is what happens when you combine visionary engineering with a good dose of start-up DNA.

As co-founder and CTO of Morpheus Space he has undertaken nothing less than to rewrite the rules of movement in space.

From the TU Dresden In 2018, he founded a company that is now one of the leading Innovators for in-space mobility counts.

His vision of „dynamic constellations“, i.e. satellites that act like intelligent swarms, is no longer a distant dream of the future. With the extremely small and efficient electric drives developed by Morpheus Space, satellite fleets will become agile, evasive and sustainable.

This technology, developed and produced in Saxony, has long since gained international recognition and is used, for example, in the NASA used.

At MACHN26, Daniel provides insights into one of the most exciting tech stories in East Germany. The path from research to global player, the opportunities for Saxony as a technology centre and the need to protect space as a valuable resource.
