Be ECO

Empowering students through an engineering competition in sustainability

During the year of the Covid-19 pandemic I decided to embark on a risky mission: to lead the Design Department of the student organization BEST Madrid UPM. Our team was composed of 35 people from the field of engineering and architecture, and we developed projects at local, national and European level.

I managed to implement Figma at an organizational level, create a new horizontal leadership system through the management of working groups and train our volunteers in multiple disciplines of design.

We created BeECO, an event that brought together companies, students and the Polytechnic University of Madrid around one goal: to raise awareness of the importance of sustainability in the world of engineering.

I directed the Design Department to create the identity of the event, the physical and digital materials, producing the merchandising and managing the organization to make the event a complete success.
