Intrigo Systems Sponsors Hyperloop India at the SpaceX Hyperloop Pod Competition
FREMONT, Calif., Aug. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Intrigo Systems, a leading provider of enterprise and cloud solutions in e-commerce, supply chain and procurement in the dynamic SAP ecosystem, is honored to announce its participation and sponsorship of the team Hyperloop India in their design of the OrcaPod for the SpaceX Hyperloop Pod competition. The Hyperloop, proposed by tech visionary Elon Musk back in 2013, is positioned as broadband for transportation between heavily populated cities. "I could either watch it happen or be a part of it," stated Elon Musk, founder of SpaceX and Tesla Motors.
Hyperloop is a proposed mode of passenger and freight transportation that would propel a modular pod vehicle through a reduced-pressure tube that would exceed airliner speed. It's is a new way to move people and things at airline speeds for the price of a bus ticket. It's on-demand, energy-efficient and safe.
Hyperloop India was founded in 2015 by a small group of students from BITS Pilani, as a unique multi-disciplinary cross-campus think tank consisting of 60+ motivated student volunteers in the fields of engineering, design and business, interested in reinventing transportation in India. As a primarily student collaboration, Hyperloop India's plan is to leverage its performance in global incentive prize competitions to leapfrog transportation in India.
"The Intrigo team is thrilled to sponsor the innovative Team Hyperloop India at this prestigious competition," said Padman Ramankutty, CEO of Intrigo Systems. "We are honored to be a part of this initiative to revolutionize transportation. The OrcaPod is a smart design that already surpassed other submissions, and we wish the team the very best."
The next phase of the pod competition is scheduled for August 25-27, 2017 at SpaceX's Hyperloop track in Hawthorne, CA.
