Nikola Lon\u010dar is an inventor, the founder and president of the Tesla Science Foundation based in Philadelphia, and one of the most agile guardians of the figure and work of Nikola Tesla in the USA and beyond. Linked to his namesake Tesla by origin and interests, already as a boy Lon\u010dar participated in exhibitions and fairs dedicated to inventions in the former Yugoslavia, where he presented his inventions. He went to America in the eighties, with the mission to spread knowledge about Tesla among the people living there. On the eve of the dissolution of the South Slavic federation and the beginning of the war, he returned to Serbia with his family and tried to develop a business related to security and property protection. Then, he was hired by the CIP Institute of Transportation, with which he designed over thirty new products in the field of security. The outbreak of war and sanctions force him to leave everything and return to the USA.<\/p>\n
His frequent visits to the motherland in the difficult nineties, during which he helped his compatriots, were also an opportunity to acquire books, handicrafts and other objects concerning our greatest scientist, and take them across the ocean to serve the task he had set before himself.<\/p>\n
Today, Lon\u010dar is known as the man who is responsible for the greater presence of Nikola Tesla in the syllabus of American schools, and who works tirelessly to ensure that this also happens in Serbian schools by founding Tesla Science Clubs, by establishing partnerships between the Tesla Science Foundation and teaching staff and students.<\/p>\n
In the coming days, we will also publish an interview with Nikola Lon\u010dar, the inventor, founder and president of the Tesla Science Foundation based in Philadelphia, who is certainly one of the major guardians of Nikola Tesla\u2019s figure and work in the USA and beyond.<\/p>\n
