Secure Your Early Bird Ticket

As you can imagine, adding a secure and reliable ticket sales booking feature to our existing website, is something that we have taken very seriously. Especially, since we have never sold anything through our website before and there is no ‘Bodo-shop’ whatsoever. Bodo merch is only handed out personally, like the now famous gerkins at PCIM, which came up again in a recent discussion on LinkedIn. We work with our partners to provide all of the magazine's high-quality content to the community for free, and we will continue to work very hard to keep it that way. Bodo and I don’t believe in paid content and articles but believe that the technical approaches to power electronics engineering should be accessible for everyone who can benefit from it. This has been the philosophy for almost 20 years now, and as we all know: If it ain’t broke,...

This has been the philosophy for almost 20 years now, and as we all know: If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!

On the event page bodoswbg.com you can now buy your ticket for Bodo's event in December, and early birds of course get extra conditions. Here you will also find the preliminary program, which is constantly being updated. Check out which companies are invited, and also which ones have already confirmed their participation. Some have even provided the title and abstract of the paper. Enough breaks for coffee and lunch will allow for fruitful one-to-one discussions with the experts from the semiconductor manufacturing industry. It is important to break down the barriers to use WBG devices. I promise you, it's money well spent. It will be a great gathering of WBG experts in a beautiful location. Did I mention that tickets are limited?

Before we meet in Munich, there are some other events worth visiting. For example, Bodo and I will be heading to Aalborg, Denmark to attend the EPE '23 ECCE. I'm also very excited to see what our friends at allaboutcircuits.com will be putting together for their virtual Tech Days in early October. Fortunately, we are privileged to have an editor in Bavaria who can cover the obvious fall events in the South, such as SPS, Productronica and SEMICON Europa. As you can see, we are quite active and there is a lot to do in the second half of the year. Not forgetting the preparations for APEC, which will take place in February next year. California is calling!

Bodo’s magazine is delivered by postal service to all places in the world. It is the only magazine that spreads technical information on power electronics globally. We have EETech as a partner serving our clients in North America. If you speak the language, or just want to have a look, don’t miss our Chinese version at bodospowerchina.com. An archive of my magazine with every single issue is available for free at my website bodospower.com.

My Green Power Tip for the Month:
Working from home is no longer an option for many people these days, so we now have to consider the best way to get into the office. In Germany, we now have a flat rate for public transportation. I bet if you lived in Luxembourg, you would have already tried it, because it's completely free there!

Kindest regards,
Holger
