A successful debut for the PCIM Executive Circle
On 8 June 2026, the first PCIM Executive Circle took place at the Nuremberg exhibition grounds. Leading C-level decision-makers from the international power electronics industry came together to exchange perspectives on current challenges, opportunities, and future trends in a series of exclusive roundtable discussions.
The agenda featured engaging conversations on topics such as Artificial Intelligence and Next-Gen R&D, the Energy Transition and Data Center Economy, Sustainable and Circular Materials, From Components to System Value, Supply Chains, Geopolitics & Resilience, and Innovation Ecosystems including Start-ups and Investments.
Beyond valuable insights and new perspectives, the event provided something equally important: a space for open dialogue, strategic conversations, and the development of meaningful connections across the industry.
