2019 Nuclear South West Showcase and Annual Conference
Taking place on 2-3 October near Bridgwater, this year’s theme is ‘Bringing Innovation to Nuclear’.
Nuclear South West’s annual conference is a chance to find out more about existing opportunities in the UK nuclear sector, showcase your capabilities to potential customers and learn about the future direction of nuclear in the UK.
There continue to be huge opportunities for UK and international companies that want to be part of the UK nuclear supply chain. Many of these are located in the South West of England. This includes the UK’s first new build in a generation, Hinkley Point C, which is entering the MEH phase; four sites being decommissioned; submarine decommissioning; and the development of new technologies for small modular reactors.
With a theme of ‘Bringing Innovation to Nuclear’, this two-day showcase and conference highlights current and future opportunities in new build, decommissioning, defence and new technologies, including SMRs.
Other highlights include the opportunity to network with senior industry representatives and engage in 1-2-1 meetings with companies across the different supply chains.
