About Me

Benjamin Gulak started BPG Inc. three years ago when his high-school science fair project Uno gained international media attention. With a "green" conscious, Ben designed the electric Uno vehicle to help combat the global pollution problem. The Uno has won "Top 10 Inventions of 2008" by Popular Science magazine and a Grand Award at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair.

Currently pursuing a mechanical engineering degree at M.I.T., Ben continues to develop the Uno and his latest vehicle, the DTV Shredder.

His personal goal is to find innovative solutions to every day transportation problems by looking at issues from a slightly left-of-center perspective. BPG Inc., develops revolutionary designs that combine function and form.
