Who are we?

Hyperloop UPV is a team of 50 students from multiple disciplines from the Universitat Politècnica de València united with the objective of designing, implementing and perfecting the hyperloop reception.

Mission

Motivate young talents to train and innovate in a multidisciplinary environment through the development of hyperloop technology that transforms mobility in a sustainable and responsible way.

Vision

To be a leading international university team, recognized for leading innovation in future transport and generating solutions on a global scale.

Our values

Shaping the future.

Commitment

Loyalty, responsibility and awareness with team, university and partners

Innovation

Creativity and pioneering spirit to overcome technological limits and explore new ideas

Learning

Continuous development of young talent and multidisciplinary growth.

Sustainability

Positive and responsible impact with the development of hyperloop technology

European Hyperloop Week

In 2019, we decided to embark on a challenging report alongside 3 of the best European universities (University of Edinburgh, Delft University of Technology, ETH Zurich) hyperloop technology event where they could share the best of our ideas and forge a community fueled by the vision of making hyperloop reality.

Thus was born the European Hyperloop Week (EHW), an event that goes far beyond a mere competition, driven by the insatiable curiosity of young students and the desire to learn.

Hyperloop Pod Competition

In 2015 a team of 5 students from the Universitat Politècnica de València decided to take on the challenge presented by SpaceX and change the world of global hyperloop competition. This first year, a conceptual proposal was presented and the university team traveled to California to experience the competition and ended up winning multiple awards.

From the resounding success of what we now know as 'HI - THE FUTURE CONCEPT' each year the experience of developing a hyperloop model has been carried out to present it at international competitions and continue working to develop the transportation of the future.
