How cool is this: the Badgerloop pod is headed to California!
BCP Transportation is no stranger to the ties with the University of Wisconsin-Madison through their partnership with the Athletic Department and the Badger Football team.
But recently, the ties run further into academia, with BCP’s support of the UW’s Badgerloop team. This team is a multi-disciplinary group, helping to determine if hyperloop can become a reality.
The team competed in the first hyperloop pod competition last winter and, with their updated Badgerloop Pod II, they are headed to California to compete in the international SpaceX Hyperloop Competition II Aug. 25-27, 2017.
BCP is proud to support the team’s efforts and have partnered with them to transport their pod to California for the competition. We join the many sponsors (as seen on the pod) and invite you to cheer on our UW Badgerloop team in the competition!
