FusionXInvest 2023, the first event of its kind designed to showcase the fusion energy industry to the global investment community, took place in London from May 18-19, 2023.
Led by fusion industry expert Dr. Melanie Windridge, FusionXInvest 2023 comprised a packed day of education and insight from fusion companies and existing investors, followed by a day at the rock-face as we visited two UK-based fusion companies and the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (CCFE).
The fusion investment juggernaut now moves forward, as does FusionXInvest which will be heading stateside, to the Northeast of the US, in Spring 2024. Watch this space.
