CGD’s senior VP of global sales to lead expansion into additional markets
Fabless firm Cambridge GaN Devices Ltd (CGD) — which was spun out of the University of Cambridge in 2016 to design, develop and commercialize power transistors and ICs that use GaN-on-silicon substrates — says that Henryk Dabrowski, appointed as senior VP of global sales last year, will lead its global sales strategy by expanding into additional markets exploiting the advantages offered by ICeGaN. As part of that expansion, CGD is growing its sales organization and will be hiring regional sales managers for both EMEA and North America who will report to Dabrowski.
“GaN is now generally acknowledged to be a disruptive power semiconductor technology with an established growth trajectory, enabling high efficiency, high power density and miniaturization,” says Dabrowski. “It is a perfect opportunity for CGD, which has demonstrated the ruggedness, reliability and ease of use of its ICeGaN GaN IC technology. I am, therefore, delighted to be leading the sales focus as we scale up with major global customers in applications including servers, data centers, inverters, industrial power supplies and, in the near future, automotive EV applications,” he adds.

Dabrowski’s “extensive industry expertise, strategic vision and proven success will enable CGD’s rapid expansion into new markets worldwide,” reckons co-founder & CEO Dr Giorgia Longobardi. “As the demand for power significantly increases due to AI and the electrification of vehicles, I am confident that Henryk’s expertise will be key to accelerating commercial adoption of CGD’s effortless and energy-efficient ICeGaN GaN ICs.”
Dabrowski has over 30 years’ experience in technology design, commerce and sales leadership. Most recently, he built and led sales and applications teams for Vicor in EMEA. A Chartered Engineer (CEng) with the Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET), Dabrowski previously held commercial roles at Texas Instruments and Infineon, and also has experience within the distribution sales channel.
