Dr. Marius-Ioan Piso (1954–2026)

The Romanian and international scientific community has lost one of the key figures who shaped the nation’s space sector. Dr. Marius-Ioan Piso was a physicist, researcher, and the founder of the Romanian Space Agency (ROSA), leading the organization for nearly two decades and establishing Romania as a respected partner within the global aerospace community.
After graduating in Physics from Babeș-Bolyai University and earning a PhD in Physics, he devoted his career to advancing space science, aerospace technologies, and research infrastructure. His leadership played a decisive role in Romania’s accession to the European Space Agency (ESA) in 2011, opening new opportunities for national research institutes, universities, and high-tech industries.
Internationally, Dr. Piso served in prominent leadership positions within the International Academy of Astronautics (IAA) and represented the scientific community in the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UN COPUOS). Throughout his career, he championed international collaboration and the peaceful application of space technologies for the benefit of society.
Beyond his institutional achievements, he inspired generations of scientists and engineers through his commitment to excellence, innovation, and education. His legacy lives on in the partnerships he built, the programs he initiated, and the enduring vision he created for Romania’s future in space exploration.

🚀 Europe’s most advanced robotic arm is taking shape, paving the way for future exploration missions to the and .

The Sample Transfer Arm (STA), developed through an European industrial consortium led by , represents a major achievement in space robotics. With seven degrees of freedom, advanced vision systems, force and torque sensing capabilities, and autonomous decision-making, the robotic arm is designed to perform highly complex operations, including the handling of valuable geological samples on planetary surfaces.
We are proud that COMOTI is part of this ambitious endeavour.

For the mission, developed a critical subsystem: the Hold Down & Release Mechanisms (HDRMs). This subsystem plays a vital role in safeguarding the Sample Transfer Arm throughout its journey from Earth to Mars.
The HDRMs are responsible for securely locking the robotic arm during launch, cruise, and Mars entry, descent, and landing phases, ensuring it withstands extreme mechanical loads, shocks, vibrations, and significant thermal variations encountered during the mission.
Once the Sample Retrieval Lander safely reaches the Martian surface, COMOTI’s mechanisms perform their final task: release of the robotic arm, enabling it to begin its mission of handling and transferring Martian samples.

We are honoured to contribute with Romanian engineering expertise to technologies that will support humanity’s next steps on Mars and future lunar missions.

Oradea: pași concreți pentru un ecosistem regional de inovare

🚩 La Oradea, în cadrul discuțiilor dedicate dezvoltării ecosistemului de cercetare și inovare din Regiunea Nord-Vest, accentul a fost pus pe soluții concrete, mecanisme funcționale și rezultate măsurabile. Corelarea infrastructurii științifice existente cu nevoile reale ale economiei rămâne un pilon esențial pentru dezvoltarea regională.

📣 Dialogul dintre administrația locală, mediul de cercetare și sectorul privat a evidențiat importanța unei arhitecturi operaționale clare între nivelul central și cel regional, precum și necesitatea unor instrumente eficiente de finanțare și guvernanță. La acest eveniment a participat si președintele Autoritatea Națională pentru Cercetare - România, Andrei Alexandru, subliniind rolul coordonării la nivel național în susținerea inovării.

📌 a fost parte din acest demers iar Dr. Ing. Valentin Silivestru, Presedinte Director General COMOTI, a susținut o prezentare în cadrul evenimentului, în care a evidențiat cele mai recente proiecte dezvoltate de echipa noastră, cu focus pe soluții inovatoare și aplicabilitatea lor în economie.

🤝 Considerăm că astfel de întâlniri sunt esențiale pentru construirea unor punți reale între cercetare și mediul de afaceri și pentru conturarea unui ecosistem de inovare coerent, predictibil și orientat spre impact.

a participat la prima ediție a , desfășurată la sediul din Bruxelles — o inițiativă importantă de diplomație economică menită să promoveze industria românească și să faciliteze accesul companiilor naționale la structurile Alianței.

Organizat pentru prima dată la sediul NATO de către OOana Țoiu ministrul Afacerilor Externe, IIrineu Darău ministrul Economiei, Digitalizării, Antreprenoriatului și Turismului, și cu participarea RRadmila Sekerinska Secretar General Adjunct al NATO, evenimentul a reunit peste 20 de companii românești care au prezentat soluții inovatoare în domeniul apărării.

Discuțiile au evidențiat punctele forte ale României în domenii precum securitatea cibernetică, inteligența artificială și tehnologiile anti-dronă, facilitând totodată un dialog direct cu agențiile NATO (NCIA și NSPA). Inițiativa sprijină integrarea companiilor românești în lanțurile globale de aprovizionare din domeniul apărării și valorifică creșterea bugetelor aliate pentru a stimula inovația, crearea de locuri de muncă și poziționarea strategică pe termen lung.

a fost reprezentată cu succes de Tiberius Frigioescu și Mihai Joavina, numărându-se printre companiile românești care au contribuit activ la aceste discuții strategice.

Credem în puterea diplomației economice de a genera creștere, inovație și colaborare internațională.
