PCIM Europe 2018 the leading international event for Power Electronics, has seen a record number of visitors on its 40th year anniversary.

Over three days the event was attended by over 11,000 visitors who used PCIM as a platform to gain new knowledge and network with fellow experts in the field. There was a total of 506 exhibitors and 88 represented companies showcasing new trends and innovations from various fields of power electronics. With a 7% increase in visitors from last year, it is clear to see why PCIM Europe 2018 is already being declared such a success.

Lisette Hausser, Vice President at Mesago Messe Frankfurt GmbH and responsible for the PCIM Europe and PCIM Asia, described how they were “particularly pleased to welcome more than 500 exhibitors for the first time in the history of the event” as “the continued increase in visitor numbers demonstrates that in the 40th year of its existence, PCIM Europe is a central meeting point for the international power electronics industry.”

This year PCIM Europe also saw a rise in conference attendees, with more than 800 participants attending over 300 lectures and poster presentations. The conferences provided information on innovative developments in both industry and academia.

Visitors have been quick to praise PCIM Europe this year, and we look forward to seeing the direction PCIM Europe will take with the power electronics industry over the next few years.
