Vladimir Igorevich Gurevich (Russian: Владимир Игоревич Гуревич) is a prominent scientist, inventor and author in the field of electrical engineering with 18 books,[1][2] more than 250 journal papers[3] and over 100 patents[4] on the topic of relays, electrical engineering, electronics, EMP Protection Problems.

V. I. Gurevich was born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, in 1956. He received an M.S.E.E. degree (1978) at the Kharkiv Petro Vasylenko National Technical University of Agriculture, and a Candidate of Sciences (Ph.D.) degree, 1986, at the National Technical University Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute. His academic and professional career includes: assistant, associate, and full (honorary) professor at the Petro Vasylenko University, as well as the chief engineer and the director of Inventor, Ltd. From 1994 to 2023 he worked as a Senior Electrical Engineering Expert by the Israel Electric Corporation. Since 2023, he has been the CEO of a private company Industrial EMP Solutions that develops new strategy, methods and means for protecting critical civilian infrastructure against Nuclear Electromagnetic Pulse.

V. I. Gurevich is the founder of a new kind of electrical relays called gerkotrones, also known as high voltage interface relays, which are used in control and protection circuits of high voltage (10-100 kV) high power equipment. He personally developed and supervised R&D of electrical and electronic devices for many military applications and also developed and organized production of many kinds of automatic devices and systems for industrial and power applications.

A significant part of Dr. Gurevich's work is also devoted to the problem of reliability of digital protective relays. In recent years, he has published dozens of papers and 6 books, wherein he discusses protection means of the electronic equipment of power plants and substations against nuclear electromagnetic pulse.

Dr. V. Gurevich is Expert of Technical Committee SC77C (High Power Transient Phenomena) with International Electrotechnical Commission - IEC (Standardization for protection civilian equipment, systems and installations from High Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse - HEMP at nuclear detonations and from sources of Intentional Electromagnetic Interference - IEMI).

Dr. V. Gurevich is International Editorial Board member of scientific and technical journals:
