About this talk

An inside look at the future of HV GaN and the UK’s opportunity to lead the next generation of power semiconductors. The webinar will address how GaN has transformed LV applications, why industry is now pushing toward 1kV and beyond, and what has changed to make HV GaN both feasible and commercially attractive. We will also highlight UK research from leading universities of Bristol and Sheffield, and discuss the need for industrial collaboration to drive manufacturing volume and cost advantages, and showcase why the UK’s diverse power-electronics ecosystem is uniquely placed to seize this opportunity. We will address future applications, the need for UK to lead HV GaN standards, and the role UK industry can play in shaping this rapidly accelerating field.
