Chapter 4: Results 60 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Diamandis is an international pioneer in the fields of innovation, incentive competitions and commercial space. In 2014 he was named one of ‘The World’s 50 Greatest Leaders’ by Fortune Magazine.” Born in 1961, Diamandis “was a standout pre-med student as well, winning awards for his undergraduate life sciences research and admission to Harvard Medical School. But with just a year left to graduate he darted back to M.I.T. to get a degree in aeronautics and astronautics, then returned to Harvard to finish his M.D.” (Caulfield, 2012). In 1995, Diamandis founded the XPRIZE Foundation, best known for the $10 million Ansari XPRIZE for private spaceflight (awarded in 2004), and the Google Lunar X-Prize for landing a privately-funded robot on the moon (ongoing). Diamandis is Co-Founder and Co-Chairman of Planetary Resources, a company designing spacecraft to enable the detection and prospecting of asteroid for precious materials. He is also the Co-Founder of Space Adventures and Zero-Gravity Corporation. 4.2.5 Case 3: Elon Musk and SpaceX The third of the three cases is Elon Musk, founder and CEO of SpaceX. The primary source material is Ashlee Vance’s business biography, Elon Musk: Tesla, SpaceX, and the Quest for a Fantastic Future (Vance, 2015). According to the author, this is the first (and currently the only) book written with Musk’s cooperation: “Musk granted me access to the executives at his companies, his friends, and his family. He would meet me for dinner once a month for as long as it took” (Vance, 2015, p. 4). Nonetheless, it was an independent and critical effort; Vance claims that Musk neither approved nor reviewed drafts of the book prior to publication (p. 2). _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Copyright © 2018 Ewan ReidPDF Image | Carbon Removal
