Semiconductors & electronics · Munich

We get technology to market.

GPI International helps semiconductor and electronics companies validate their technology for a specific vertical market and a new application — and take it to market there.

The problem

Two questions. Two suppliers. Nobody joins them up.

A technology entering a new vertical has to answer two things at once: whether it holds up against what that market actually demands, and whether the application is real enough to build a business on. Those answers are almost always bought separately.

A test house

  • Tells you whether it passesAgainst a standard, on a bench, under conditions someone else chose.
  • Cannot tell you whether the market is realOr which customer to approach first, or what they will ask for.

A strategy consultancy

  • Tells you where the market isSizing, segments, a route in.
  • Cannot tell you whether the hardware survives itOr what has to change before it does.

The join is left to the client, and that is where programmes stall. We take both halves — which is why our validation is measured against what the market demands rather than a generic bench standard, and why our market advice is grounded in what the technology can actually do.

What we do

Three ways in — usually in this order.

Technical validation & testing

Planning, implementation, validation and testing of devices, sensors and systems — measured against what the target vertical actually demands, not against a generic bench standard.

When you need this: you are entering a vertical whose requirements you have not had to meet before, or a customer has asked for evidence you cannot yet produce.

Go-to-market strategy

Which vertical, which application, which customers, in which order. Positioning, business planning and the commercial path to a design win.

When you need this: a technology looking for its best market, a new application that may or may not be real, or a first approach to an OEM or ODM you have no relationship with.

Training & workshops

Sessions for engineering and commercial teams, built around your technology and the market it is entering rather than a standard syllabus. Event planning and strategy days alongside.

When you need this: a team that has to carry the work after the engagement ends.

VMS — by GPI International

On-device detection for the vehicle body.

Our own technology, and the clearest demonstration of the practice: an edge-AI system validated for a specific vertical and a new application, taken toward an OEM-ready design. Impacts, contact, scratches and break-ins classified in real time on the module itself — no cloud, and no audio leaving the vehicle.
