Opening Keynote

Get Big, Get Niche, or Get Out

Date & Time
September 2, 2026 | 10:10 AM – 10:40 AM

Join our CEO, Orlin Radev, for the opening keynote on Wednesday, September 2nd, at 10:10 a.m. at Tempelhof Airport, Berlin.


Europe’s EV charging market is entering a decisive new phase. As investment tightens and consolidation accelerates, operators must decide not only where they are going, but whether their businesses are ready to move.

Orlin opens icnc26 with the choice this market now puts in front of every operator: get big, get niche, or get out. All three paths can work. What has stopped working is the middle: too big to stay focused and too small to carry real weight. Drawing on what AMPECO sees across operators in more than 70 countries, he explores what each path requires, why utilization determines which acquisitions are worth making, and why operators preparing to move are first fixing the foundations beneath their businesses.

This is a session for the people making that decision: boards, CEOs and investors weighing which direction to take, and what must be true underneath the business before that choice is even available.
