Axelsson will join the executive management team, and Lundskog has come on board in a new R&D role. Both joined SweGaN the first week of January 2024.
Jr-Tai Chen, CEO and Co-founder of SweGaN, “We are excited to kick-off 2024 with the addition of two new key team members. With significant interest in SweGaN GaN-on-SiC epitaxial solutions for RF and power components, and aligned with growth projections, the company is proactive in securing resources and competence to capture a major share of the global GaN market.
The company has previously engaged seasoned consultants for guidance in a number of fields. Moving to add permanent key management positions further positions SweGaN for fully embracing its scale-up strategy, new KPI’s, investor expectations and achieving ambitious innovation goals.
