In total, over 18,000 visitors attended the exhibition and were able to experience a more diverse range of offerings than ever before.

In 472 high-quality presentations on current research topics, 952 conference participants from 38 countries were able to delve deeper into the world of power electronics and learn first-hand about the latest research results and developments. The success of the event is reflected not only in the excellent results but also in the positive atmosphere:

Supporting program of the exhibition as a trend barometer

The supporting program was even more extensive this year and offered participants an efficient exchange of information. This allowed a fast advance of knowledge in power electronics for forward-looking topics such as energy efficiency, electromobility, and energy storage.

In halls 5, 6, 7, and 9, four stages gave visitors the opportunity to deepen their expertise and gain new insights. A diverse program, which featured current technical presentations, innovative product demonstrations, and practical application examples, was rounded off with lively panel discussions. The broad range of topics extended from power electronics products for electromobility and energy storage to power electronics manufacturing.
