Diego Muñoz Neira earned is a Bioengineering at UTEC Universidad de Ingeniería y Tecnología from Lima, Perú.<br> During his Bachelors first year as an undergraduate student, Diego participated in Electronics multiple engineering projects focused on social impact. One of the first project called "The Solar Kitchen". Engineering Technology at TECSUP With this project, he won the project fair “Vivir la Ingeniería” UTEC in Limathe category of Development and Product, Perúand the third place in the Expo Energy Efficiency Award of Led Expo Peru in 2016. He is currently also worked on a senior student Radiant Wall to Andean Houses which was presented in Congress of Bioengineering Bioclimatic Architecture and Renewable Energies CABER 2016. During 2016, he was elected vice-president at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers UTEC Universidad de Ingeniería y Tecnología. During this time, the branch won the Sustainable Growth prize.<br>

During his first years Diego was trained as an undergraduate studenta University Innovation Fellows Program at Stanford University in Fall 2018, Diego participated and attended the Silicon Valley meetup in multiple engineering projects March 2018. As a Fellow, he focused his work on social impact. One of the first projects was the Solar Kitchen for the Andes in Peruwell-being and mental health. With this project, That is why he won the internal project fair “Vivir la Ingeniería” founded UTEC 2015-2 in the category of development/productPuppy Lab, and the third place in the Expo Energy Efficiency Award of Led Expo Peru in 2016an organization that promotes mental health through canine interaction. He In 2018 he was invited to give an Ignite at LOOP, also worked on a Radiant Wall to Andean Houses which was presented as a poster in the Congreso de Arquitectura Bioclimática y Energías Renovables CABER 2016. During 2016, he was elected vice-president part of the student branch Bootcamp of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers at UTEC. During this time, the branch won the “Crecimiento Sostenible” prize and the Power and Energy Society chapter won event where along with an interdisciplinary group worked on a solution for villagers living by the “Caso de Éxito” prizetrain rail.<br><br>Diego The solution was trained chosen as a University Innovation Fellow in Fall 2018, and attended the Silicon Valley meetup best in March 2018its category..<br><br> In 2018This year, he participated in IDDS International Developmentent Development Design Summitin Colombia, initiative created by MIT D-Lab to co-design low-cost solutions to challenges faced by people living in poverty around the world.<br><br>That same year, he was a finalist in the Disrupton Amazonia contest at UTEC, where he built a prototype of mobile laboratory to collect plastic from the Amazon River and transform it into useful products. In 2019, Diego was selected to participate in IAP-MIT Design of Technologies for the Coffee Production of Coffee in Colombia. They design designed new technologies for agriculture with a team of students from Harvard and MIT and coffee growers.Continuing his local innovation work with communities Diego was certified as Trainer of Trainers CCB in Brasilia dictated by Amy Smith (Founding Director of MIT D-Lab). Also, he lead a STEAM educational project for children in Lis country to promote creativity and innovation. <br>
