We didn’t win — and we’re still smiling

Congratulations to the well-deserving winners of the Ground Engineering Magazine Awards in June.
fibrisTerre wasn’t among them. So why are we happy?
Four reasons:
1. We celebrated a great collaboration with Network Rail and Senceive, tackling the challenge of rapidly detecting and locating rockfall along transport routes.
Huge thanks to the project team: Derek Butcher, Massimo Facchini, Bridie Grimes, Dom Kisz, Nils Nöther and James Taylor for their unwavering engagement!
2. We made and renewed valuable connections — even if we didn’t manage to see everyone we hoped to (900 attendees is a big crowd!).
3. We showcased the power of distributed fiber optic sensing and its relevance across industries.
4. We have an incredible team in Berlin, and elsewhere. Thank you for making fibrisTerre what it is.

Here’s to continuing the journey — and to future wins of all kinds.
Thank you to Network Rail for funding and leading the project, Geobrugg for finding the site, and Toggenburger Unternehmungen for access to their facilities.
