ALL2GaN will participate to EFECS 2025 – the European Forum for Electronic Components and System – organized by the Chips Joint Undertaking in partnership with AENEAS Association, EPoSS Association and INSIDE Industry Association.
This year’s theme is “Accelerate Innovation: Building European Competitiveness” focusing strengthening value chain security, driving sustainability in ECS, exploiting emerging market opportunities and advancing Europe’s technological sovereignty.
Looking forward to interesting networking and visionary keynotes!
On Wednesday, 17 September 2025, we proudly recognize Daniel Rios Linares for his outstanding work in the Use Case Presentation Contest at the M24 ALL2GaN General Assembly in Madrid.
Daniel—PhD Student and Associate Professor at the Centro de Electrónica Industrial (CEI), Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM)—was invited to join the prestigious IPCEI Summer School, hosted by Infineon Technologies Austria AG.
During the Summer School themed “One prompt, one chip – Unlocking the potential of AI”, Daniel delivered an inspiring presentation entitled “Powering AI at the Edge: A High-Density DC/DC Converter Approach”. After a short introduction of ALL2GaN project coordinator, Herbert Pairitsch, Daniel explained the crucial role of power management in AI applications in front of an audience of 40 talented students from 14 countries. Moreover, his participation created valuable opportunities to exchange ideas, share best practices and build new professional relationships, fostering a stronger bridge between ALL2GaN and IPCEI while laying the groundwork for future joint research and innovation.
Congratulations to Daniel for this remarkable achievement, and our sincere thanks to the IPCEI Summer School team for their excellent organization!
The intention of this newsletter is to open a public communication channel to provide news on the project progress. This newsletter is intended for internal and external project partners, stakeholders and all other interested bodies. For more detailed information about the project, we invite you to visit our project website, which is constantly updated with the latest project related news: ALL2GaN.eu.
Message from the coordinators
Dear ALL2GaN Team,
It is hard to believe, but two years have already flown by and we are now entering the final year of the project! The past months have been both intense and rewarding: activities across the Work Packages are advancing strongly, and the Use Cases have gained high visibility with their progress and achievements.
The recently concluded M24 Review Meeting in Brussels, attended by ChipsJU Project Officer Francisco Ignacio Serradilla and reviewers Radoslava Mitova and Mike Leszczynski, was a great success. The work of our 45 Partners since the M12 Review was seen very positive. Nevertheless we got ideas for improvement. Similarly, the M24 General Assembly, kindly hosted by Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM), offered an excellent opportunity to reconnect, exchange ideas, and explore future perspectives together.
Communicating our progress to the wider world is essential for showcasing the purpose and impact of our project and the added value of an EU-funded initiative within a European consortium. Our website ALL2GaN.eu and LinkedIn page continue to serve as important channels for sharing updates, achievements, and videos. We encourage you to contribute your news, events, and success stories—and of course, to read, share, and amplify our collective work.
Another key tool is this newsletter. Newsletter #2 highlights the significant advances made by the Use Cases during the second year of implementation, with a focus on their current research status.
Even more exciting activities are on the horizon—don’t miss out!
The ALL2GaN project held its M24 Review Meeting on July 3rd-4th, 2025, at the ChipsJU premises in Brussels. Under the guidance of Project Officer Francisco Ignacio Serradilla, the meeting allowed two reviewers - Radoslava Mitova and Mike Leszczynski - to receive updates on the project's latest developments and progress.
During the event, a total of 18 presentations were given by 7 Work Package leaders and 11 Use Cases leaders. These presentations showcased the advancements made within the project, highlighting the progress achieved in various areas.
As the project enters its third and final year of implementation, the reviewers expressed satisfaction with the results obtained so far. Of particular interest are exploitable results for all the Use Cases’ topics: telecommunication, transport/mobility, and energy.
The project partners are eagerly anticipating the continuation of this valuable research and are committed to actively participating in all communication and dissemination activities planned for the year. These activities include presenting the project at the EFECS 2025 conference, hosting webinars in Q3/Q4, and participating in numerous other conferences.
Additionally, the project partners plan to release various publications, further disseminating the project's findings and results to a wider audience. This comprehensive approach to communication and dissemination will help to raise awareness about the project's objectives, progress, and outcomes, and facilitate the sharing of knowledge and expertise among stakeholders.

Madrid, April 30, 2025 — For the first time, the ALL2GaN Project – A European Backbone for Smart GaN Integration placed a dedicated focus on Use Cases during its M24 General Assembly, held at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid. A highlight of the event was a Poster Session, offering young researchers the opportunity to present their cutting-edge work to the full consortium.
Participants from across Europe had the chance to explore innovative research on GaN technology and vote for their favorite posters. This interactive format sparked lively discussions and showcased the promising future of GaN integration through fresh perspectives and emerging talent.
The Top 3 Posters, as voted by attendees, were:
Daniel Rios Linares (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid)
"GaN and the Future of DC/DC Converters: A Real Case of Miniaturisation"
Jürgen Pirchenfellner (FRONIUS)
"Bringing the Sun into Your Home with GaN Power in the Most Efficient Way"
Itziar Alzuguren (IKERLAN)
"Alternative Topologies for EV Wireless Chargers"
In recognition of his outstanding work, Daniel Rios Linares has been invited to present his research at Infineon Technologies Austria AG in September 2025.
We extend our sincere thanks to all participants for their dedication and contributions. The ALL2GaN consortium looks forward to continuing to promote and empower young researchers across Europe, advancing innovation in GaN technologies.
Madrid, April 30, 2025 — The M24 General Assembly of the ALL2GaN Project – A European Backbone for Smart GaN Integration took place at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, introducing new and engaging formats to foster collaboration and innovation.
A key highlight of the event was the Roundtable session, moderated by Ander Avila of IKERLAN, with the active participation of Work Package Leaders and Use Case Leaders. The Roundtable was structured into three dedicated panels focusing on Energy, Transport, and Communication—areas central to the project’s mission.
This dynamic format provided a platform for in-depth discussions and the exchange of expertise, ideas, and future visions among stakeholders from across Europe, spanning both research institutions and industry partners.
The Roundtable proved to be a valuable space for interaction and inspiration, reinforcing the collaborative spirit of the ALL2GaN consortium and opening new perspectives for innovation in GaN integration.
On April 29–30, 2025, the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid – Centro de Electrónica Industrial hosted the M24 General Assembly of the ALL2GaN Project – A European Backbone for Smart GaN Integration.
The event gathered experts from 45 institutions across 12 European countries to review project progress, align on future goals, and strengthen collaboration. This year’s spotlight was on the project’s Use Cases, presented in two new interactive formats: a Use Case Presentation Contest highlighting the work of young researchers, and a Roundtable Discussion featuring in-depth exchanges between Work Package and Use Case Leaders on key themes in Transport, Energy, and Communication.
The assembly fostered both technical alignment and community building—driving innovation forward across Europe.
A special thanks to all participants, and especially to Professor Miroslav Vasić and his Team for the fantastic support and organization!
