The team behind FragaX

Just drop us an email! We love challenging topics.

Rumen Dimitrov

(Chief Engineer)

Rumen got infected with the aviation virus at the early age of 8. At 14 it got worse and he became the youngest RC hobby aircraft instructor and referee in Bulgaria.

It was followed by a military aeronautical education and a service as a Helicopter Flight Engineer logging 3000 flight hours at the Bulgarian Air Force. In the 1990s he found his passion for serial entrepreneurship.

There is literally no fragaX project without Rumen’s fingerprints all over it.

Kiril Dimitrov

(CEO & Founder)

Kiril spent his early 20s in Germany studying the fine art of Electrical Engineering at the University of Applied Sciences Aachen. Later he mastered the Automotive Software Engineering at the Technical University Munich.

He dedicated his late 20s on R&D projects for AUDI, BMW and Continental AG.

Nowadays, Kiril is responsible for the development of the fragaX autopilot and ground control software.

Dimitar Dimitrov

(Business Development and CRM)

Dimitar studied Applied Biology at the University of Applied Sciences Bonn-Rhein-Sieg, Germany.

After a few years working in a biotech startup in Bonn, Germany he decided to leave the lab and pursue a more business-oriented career.

Dimitar is running the business development and sales at fragaX with the expertise of his newly acquired MBA degree.
