Reuters Events: SMR and Advanced Reactor 2026

Global energy demand is projected to increase nearly 50% by 2050 compared to 2020 levels, with data centers fuelling huge growth potential for SMR players. Partnerships and prudent planning are essential to deliver successful projects and meet this surge. But with no blueprint for success, how do you build the right business models, forge the right alliances and execute projects with confidence?

Critical milestones are fast approaching - and there's no room for missteps. The industry must coordinate now to overcome key hurdles across financing, supply chain, FOAK risk, regulation, and technology. Join us to:

- Build effective business models and collaboration frameworks to accelerate deployment

- Gain critical insights from leading SMR stakeholders to project-plan effectively and avoid costly delays

- Establish nuclear as a scalable, viable source to meet rising energy demand and security imperatives
