Company Revolutionizes Power Conversion With Cutting-Edge Digital Control and Advanced GaN Devices Serving Fast-Growing Markets, Such as Data Centers and EVs

Hyeres, France – Sept. 8, 2025 – Wise Integration, a pioneer in digital control for gallium nitride (GaN) and GaN IC-based power supplies, today announced the appointment of Ghislain Kaiser as Chief Executive Officer. Kaiser succeeds CEO and co-founder, Thierry Bouchet, who will continue to serve as Chief Technology Officer and General Manager, leading the worldwide R&D and driving the technological vision. 

A seasoned high-tech leader with a proven track record in growing and leading global teams in the semiconductor industry, Kaiser brings deep experience in scaling deep-tech ventures. In 2006, he cofounded Docea Power, a French EDA startup pioneering full-chip, system-level power and thermal modelling, with the vision of addressing the growing power-consumption and thermal challenges in IC and platform design.

As CEO, he led the company to domain leadership and its acquisition by Intel in 2015. He then joined Intel, where for the next decade he held senior director roles, most recently overseeing system-simulation engineering and worldwide customer-enablement organization. Those programs tackled the most critical power, thermal, and performance challenges in designing consumer, data-center, and AI systems. Kaiser began his career at STMicroelectronics, where he held technical and leadership positions across test and product engineering, design, and architecture teams.

Targeting Fast-Growing Markets

With Kaiser’s appointment, Wise Integration is positioning itself to scale globally and capitalize on booming markets such as data centers powering  artificial intelligence (AI), and  electric vehicles (EV)— which demand more efficient, compact, and digitally controlled power architectures.

“I’m thrilled to join Wise Integration and build on its success in providing customers differentiated solutions in power electronics to meet their biggest challenges,” Kaiser said. “This talented team has created an R&D-driven culture and a robust foundation to lead the GaN power electronics transformation globally.”

The Next Chapter

“On behalf of the board of directors, I am pleased to welcome Ghislain Kaiser as Wise Integration’s new CEO, and to compliment the team for their exceptional work,” said Board Chairman Patrick Boulaud. “This marks a major milestone for the company as it transitions from a CEA‑Leti spinout into a pioneering force in GaN and digital power management innovation with strong growth potential. Ghislain’s background makes him a natural choice as the CEO to guide the company through this next stage of growth.”  

“Ghislain’s arrival begins a new chapter for Wise Integration,” Bouchet added. “With our WiseGan® devices and WiseWare® digital control, we’ve built a strong foundation in consumer markets. Now it’s time to scale our innovations and tackle the next big challenges—bringing unmatched efficiency and power density to AI servers, data centers, and tomorrow’s automotive systems.”
