Jim shares his incredible journey from childhood soapbox races to co-founding game-changing startups in both the automotive and aerospace industries. They dive deep into how Phantom Space is aiming to become the "Henry Ford of Space" by making space access cheaper, faster, and smarter. He also talks about Quantum Motors, a new venture creating ultra-efficient electric motors that could change aviation, drones, and even spacecraft.
From racing vintage Lamborghinis to working with the French and Russian space agencies, Jim opens up about what drives him, the challenges of founding 12 startups, and why data centers in orbit might just be the key to the next tech frontier.
