As the world pushes to increase nuclear output by 2.5 times by 2050, a cultural and technological shift is underway. The rise of small modular reactors (SMRs) represents a game-changing innovation in nuclear energy, but traditional utility models are clashing with the fast-paced ethos of tech companies eager to lead in this new era. This panel will explore how these two worlds—nuclear and technology—must align to meet the energy needs of tomorrow while balancing safety, speed, and sustainability in this digital transformation of utilities.
