TM5 opened virtually with an introductory talk by Prof Ilka Jahn (KTH), a panel discussion with Dr Max Görtz (MOSAIC), a RECOPS project presentation by Dr Jagruti Thakur (KTH) and elevator‑pitch training by Dr. Philipp Gramlich (NaturalScience.Careers). The in‑person phase in Copenhagen featured Prof. Frede Blaabjerg’s lecture on power‑electronics trends, a joint poster session with ADOreD, a networking dinner, and culminated in DCs delivering their pitches, electing board representatives, and visiting the Middelgrunden Offshore Wind Farm with a boat trip from Nordhavn.
