Update!

July 19, 2008

MAQiNA is still working ever hard on the project and doing a lot of market research and talking to various institutions in India and The Netherlands.

In the mean time we have recruited some very interesting members into our team and hope they will provide some useful regarding the possible solutions that will be researched.

Two of the team members will be traveling to India in the following weeks. Purpose of the visit is to gather information from professionals in the field we are investigating. A meeting is planned with Teri- The Energy and Resources Institute (slogan-Towards global sustainable development). You can visit their website at www.teriin.org.

We will keep you up-to-date with new findings and photos of the rickshaws we will travel with in India!

We have started approaching potential sponsors and hope to get answers from them soon.

Official Kick-Off

June 7, 2008

Hello Everyone,

 On the 29th of May we had the grand kick-off for the Auto Rickshaw battle. MAQINA (Auto Rickshaw Team TUDelft) had a great time at the party and met the other team participating in the battle. Many photos can be seen through the project site, we will post some on our blog as well.

We are still eagerly waiting for the rickshaw itself. Better late than never. 

Currently, we are looking for sponsors, if you know anyone that is willing to sponsor MAQINA please let me know so I can send a proposal as soon as possible. 

Regards,
