From 6 to 8 May 2025, the leading international exhibition and conference for power electronics, the PCIM Expo & Conference, returns to Nuremberg, Germany. With over 600 exhibitors and more than 450 presentations, this hub for the power electronics industry will offer a comprehensive program for trade visitors.
With three months still to go, the world’s leading exhibition and conference for power electronics, intelligent motion, renewable energy, and energy management already has 606 registered exhibitors, 61% from international companies. For Lisette Hausser, Vice President PCIM at Mesago Messe Frankfurt GmbH, “The considerable interest from suppliers demonstrates the high relevance of the exhibition and presentation program with topics covering the entire power electronics value chain. And with this year’s expansion to six halls, compared to the four in previous years, we are offering suppliers even more space to showcase their latest innovations and developments in power electronics to an international trade audience.”
Exhibitors will include industry leaders Infineon, Mitsubishi, Semikron Danfoss, and EPC, among others. The new Halls 4 and 4A will showcase products from such industry giants as Toshiba, Novosense, Microelectronics, Renesas Electronics and Endrich Bauelemente.
With more than 160 new exhibitors from 20 countries including Italy, Japan, and France, the exhibition also promises an even wider, more diverse offering, demonstrating the broad potential of power electronics. The participation of new companies from different nations encourages networking on a global level and promotes synergies that can accelerate the development of new technologies.
The companies taking part for the first time include established market leaders and innovative tech firms such as SPEA, ASYS Group, Parmi, Augsburg Diamond Foundry, and GE Aviation Systems. Products on show will range from power semiconductors, test and measurement technologies, and automation solutions to materials for different fields of application, including the aviation industry.
Presentation program to offer insights into innovations, sustainability, and future trends in power electronics
The extensive program of presentations across the three stages will highlight current trends in the industry as well as challenges, while also discussing some of the latest technologies in action.
The Technology Stage will feature presentations and panel discussions on the latest research by leading universities and providers. Program highlights include a presentation on sustainability by Pink Thermosysteme and one on Wide Bandgap Divisions and Applications by Fraunhofer IAF.
The Exhibitor Stage will offer visitors in-depth insights into product innovations from exhibiting companies such as Hitachi, MacDermid, Cissoid, and Broadcom.
On the E-Mobility & Energy Storage Stage, presentations will center around current and future developments in power electronics for use in electromobility and energy storage, taking into account different applications in electric, hybrid, and fuel cell vehicles, for example. Participating suppliers will include Wolfspeed, Littelfuse, and Heraeus, among others.
