ISiCPEAW 2011 in Stockholm is a two days event presenting advances in silicon carbide technology with the focus on power electronics applications. We expect 200 attendees from the industry and application oriented researchers from all over the world to join the meeting. This is an opportunity to meet the SiC industry and discuss applications for SiC power electronics.

This workshop aims to promote latest research and developments in silicon carbide for the worldwide industry. More precise we aim at power electronics applications, components, modules, packaging, reliability and benchmarking versus silicon power electronics. The industry is ready to move on to adopt SiC power electronics in many areas. Some major companies will present their prototype solutions.

Most of the workshop attendees are design engineers and technology managers from European companies but here are also a growing attendance from the USA and Asia. At last year workshop (2010) participated approximately 160 people coming from San Diego to Tokyo, working in different areas as photovoltaic solar power, car powertrains, high temperature electronics, space and high power converters.

B2B Matchmaking will be organised during the workshop and all participants will have the opportunity to book One-on-One meetings. This is a quick and easy way to meet with potential cooperation partners.

2011 the workshop will be held in Stockholm/Kista in the conveniently located “Kista Science Tower” conference and exhibition area. In combination with this workshop we will have a tabletop exhibition area.

This event is organised by Acreo, Yole Développement, the Royal Institute of Technology and Enterprise Europe Network.
