Many have tried and have not succeeded, why are we different?

This project is a rare convergence of brilliance, where countless incredible people, with perfect timing, came together in an almost cosmic alignment, creating the unstoppable momentum that ensured its success

Robert Miller – Founder CEO and Head of UAV Design

Robert was actively involved in the prepress industry for over 30 years, pioneering the development of many productivity and performance enhancements.

2017 saw him found the Eye Above project,, inspired by his late friend Giacomo Angelini’s love for the bush and the passion that many of the game wardens have for the work they do and their despair due to the difficulties combating rhino poaching.

Moran-Lie Paz – Non Executive Director

Moran Lie-Paz is a seasoned attorney with global expertise in brand protection and anticounterfeiting. Her strategic insight and deep regulatory knowledge are key to helping The Eye Above collaborate effectively with authorities and stakeholders to protect wildlife and empower local communities

Meagan Cesare – Non Executive Director

With 37 years in South Africa’s Lowveld, Meagan has deep experience in wildlife reserve management and anti-poaching efforts. She remains an active consultant and passionate supporter of technology in conservation.

A few of our project partners have gone above and beyond, stepping into roles that feel more than just partners and rather extensions of our team. Their commitment, passion, and hands-on involvement have made them invaluable collaborators, helping drive the project forward in ways we couldn’t have imagined

As well as being a premium project partner Dassault Systèmes have become an integral part of this projects progress. Stephane Bonnamour, Omar Zohni and many others at Dassault Systèmes have gone above and beyond what we could every have expected and they have all become valued members of the team

Quinton Burger, Edyss Scott and the rest of the team at Mecad have similarly gone above and beyond to ensure that this project gets off the ground.

Gino Balistreri, Matthieu Verhelst, Jose Maria Millan, Jordi Casellas, Petr Bartek and Clara Maria Quinquilla, from HP Additive Manufacturing Solutions, have quickly, through their invaluable contributions, become part of the team providing insight in the design and optimisation for MJF printing.
