Shiva Sundaram discusses materials for the nuclear industry at UK Conference


EMEA Modular and Large Reactors 2026

March 25 -26

London

Shiva Sundaram, Commercial Director, Materials Processing Institute will be presenting on Day 2 of EMEA Modular and Large Reactors 2026.

This conference is all about accelerating nuclear energy innovation. It brings together global nuclear leaders to accelerate Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and Advanced Modular Reactors (AMR) deployment across Europe, the Middle East and Africa while advancing the UK's large-scale reactor programme.

The comprehensive agenda bridges policy, technology and investment and includes keynote presentation and panel discussions involving government, regulators, operators, SMRs/AMRs, vendors and the wider nuclear supply chain. Discussions will span reactor design, regulatory frameworks, financing models, supply chain readiness, and international cooperation—focused on how large reactors, SMRs, and AMRs can accelerate energy security, decarbonization, and climate goals.

Shiva’s presentation will focus on: Bridging the Gap: 80 Years of Materials Innovation for a Modular Reactor Future
