Hi, I’m Diego—an entrepreneur driven by the momentum of innovation and the cutting-edge opportunities in space and advanced manufacturing. My work centers on transformative collaborations with NASA, ESA, and the UK Space Agency, where technology and vision converge to shape the next wave of industry.

Currently based in Ventura County, California, my journey is defined by a global perspective. Born in Mexico City, raised and educated in the US and the UK, and refined through international business experience in Mexico, the UAE, and beyond, I thrive at the intersection of cultures, industries, and ideas.

I’m leadingSpaceRETURN, a pioneering initiative creating the first space cluster for advanced manufacturing. SpaceRETURN is a hub for innovators, businesses, and organizations looking to capitalize on the emerging space economy. We’re designing a collaborative ecosystem to push the limits of what advanced manufacturing can achieve both in orbit and on Earth.

When I’m not immersed in innovation, I draw inspiration from the creative energy of travel, wildlife, music, and the arts. These passions remind me of the limitless potential we all have to grow and transform when we engage with the world around us.

If you’re interested in SpaceRETURN or want to explore opportunities in the space industry, let’s connect. Together, we can shape what’s next.
