Technology Innovation & Cooperation

From research to market, across two continents

We co-develop power electronics & silicon carbide, custom chips and AI with universities, research institutes and industry — from Switzerland, ranked first in global innovation for 16 consecutive years — and carry technology from the lab to validated, deployed projects.

Research focus

Where we innovate

Power Electronics & SiC

Converters, PCS and grid interfaces built on wide-bandgap silicon carbide — for higher efficiency, voltage and power density in storage, charging and e-trucks.

Energy System Architecture

How storage, generation, loads and markets connect — system-level design for performance and value.

Chip Technology

Custom ASIC design with successful tape-outs and IP licensing for tier-1 European clients — from chip to system.

AI & Intelligent Systems

AI and computer-vision methods for smart energy operation, predictive control and robotics — co-developed with leading engineering universities.

How we work

A two-way China–Europe innovation network

Co-develop with academia

Joint R&D with leading Swiss universities and research institutes, with a total collaboration budget exceeding CHF 10 million.

Link European and Chinese ecosystems

From EPFL and CSEM to Shanghai Jiao Tong University's engineering network — a personal bridge into both worlds.

Validate, then deploy

We take technologies through joint development, validation and pilot projects before industrial rollout and market entry.

Commercialise the result

Turn research into products, standards and regional distribution — opening the path to industrial adoption.
