“Power electronics is a key driver for electric mobility, renewable energy, and AI infrastructure. With the PCIM Executive Circle, we are specifically expanding PCIM to include a strategic forum for decision-makers, providing a space for open debate, fresh perspectives, and ideas for the future of the industry,” says Lisette Hausser, Vice President of PCIM.
In an exclusive setting, the PCIM Executive Circle brings together international decision-makers from across the power electronics value chain. This business-oriented format
is deliberately designed not for academic exchange, but to address strategic issues related to the market, transformation, and corporate development. Informal guidelines, a participant-centered approach, and direct dialogue create a unique atmosphere for open peer discussions.
The Executive Circle incorporates elements of an "unconference": instead of a traditional program of presentations, the focus is on the participants. The content and discussions arise from their perspectives, experiences, and current challenges. The limited number of participants creates the ideal environment for meaningful conversations and lasting connections.
The agenda combines keynote addresses, interactive panel discussions, and dedicated networking sessions. Following the opening, Ole Gerkensmeyer, Chief Strategy Officer of Nexperia,
will deliver a keynote address on geopolitical tensions and their impact on industrial alliances. In parallel sessions, participants will discuss topics such as:
Sustainability
, Innovative Materials
, AI-Driven Research
, Data Centers
, Resilient Supply Chains
, and Energy Transition
Experts such as Mahyar Koshravi (Nitride Global), Stefan Hain (onsemi), Milan Rosina (Yole Group), Jörg Schulze (Fraunhofer IISB), Tobias Keller (Hitachi Energy), Tanjeff Schadt (Strategy&), and Wolfgang Dengler (BayernKapital) will share their perspectives from the fields of industry, research, and innovation.
There will be ample time between sessions for one-on-one conversations and networking. The event will conclude with a social gathering featuring food and drinks.
The PCIM Executive Circle not only offers participants professional and strategic value, but also the opportunity to forge new collaborations and alliances, exchange ideas with like-minded individuals, and actively contribute their own ideas. At the same time, the format provides a space for inspiration, strategic reflection, and the development of business objectives.
