The people behind TRIAMP
Simon Jeger
Simon finished his bachelor in mechanical engineering at ETH Zürich in December 2019 and is since then working on this project as part of an internship that was required for his master in robotics, which he got in summer 2022. Since then he is working for his PhD at EPF Lausanne. Together with his father Felix, he was at the root of the idea of taking oldtimers and converting them to electric vehicles.
Andreas Weibel
Andreas owns, together with his brother, a VW garage and brings decades worth of expertise with cars to the project. Besides the know how transfer he also provides vital things like logistics and space. Other than an electric skate board in 1988, this is his first electric conversion.
Felix Stoffel
Felix (Simon’s dad) is fighter pilot in the Swiss Air Force and is fascinated by engineering and complex designs since he was a little kid. Together with Simon he initialized this idea of converting oldtimer cars. It was his idea to bring Andreas into the team to compensate the lack of experience with cars.
