GaN Wine Lounge. GaN stories, insights, and people

GaN Wine Lounge

GaN Wine Lounge is a relaxed video conversation series where we talk GaN - and beyond - with our customers, academic partners, editors, and EPC team members over a virtual glass of wine. In an informal, friendly atmosphere, we share real-world experiences, lessons learned, and fresh ideas. We also include short lab episodes, offering a behind-the-scenes look at experiments and real applications of EPC solutions. Together, we build connections, inspire collaboration, and celebrate the people and technologies shaping the future of GaN.
