Adriano V. Autino – a short bio
Adriano Vittorio Autino, born in Moncrivello (VC, Italia), is co-founder and former President of the Space Renaissance Initiative, since 2010 Space Renaissance International (SRI), an inter-cultural non-profit association, whose mission is the opening of the space frontier: low-cost access to space, space tourism, industrialization of the geo-lunar space, use of near Earth asteroids, and the full development of space economy. Adriano is diplomed in Industrial Electronics, acting since 1971 as a software and system engineer, then project manager and entrepreneur in the field of real-time automation systems. His insatiable curiosity and the desire to engage in frontier fields have led him to work in the aerospace environment, and to devise and develop an integrated software system, supporting the systems engineering and the project lifecycle management processes. Adriano authored and co-authored several books, papers and articles on the theme of civilization expansion into the outer space.
