Pawel Pisarczyk’s decision to step down as CEO of Atende Industries, announced on 16 April 2026, is a move that reflects the growing importance of deep technology (deep-tech) in the architecture of modern business. Pisarczyk, who has been the technological visionary of the Atende group for many years, is moving to the company’s Supervisory Board in order to fully focus his energies on the development of Phoenix Systems.
Key to this change is Phoenix-RTOS, a proprietary real-time operating system that is becoming the foundation for a new generation of critical systems. The project is now entering a key phase of scaling, finding applications in sectors with the highest level of complexity: from modern unmanned vehicles to smart energy to space systems.
For Atende Industries, a leading provider of Smart Grid and IoT solutions, this change marks a natural evolution. The company today has a mature product portfolio that allows for a smooth operational succession. Pisarczyk’s presence on the Supervisory Board will ensure the continuation of the technological vision, while freeing up his engineering potential to work on a solution that has the potential to become a standard in next-generation devices.
This move should be interpreted as a mature specialisation strategy. While Atende Industries focuses on implementing advanced systems for industry, Phoenix Systems under Pisarczyk has the ambition to become the ‘intellectual heart’ of European hardware.
