The YPN team delivered two well-attended, interactive workshops at the Forum, offering technical insights into Urenco Isotopes and Advanced Fuels through engaging games that encouraged dialogue and deeper understanding.
Colleagues Laura, Nathan, and Harrison explored how rising energy demands are driving nuclear growth, aligning with global climate goals.
HR Analyst at Urenco, Hugo, said: “It’s been an inspiring week of learning, collaboration, and making connections.
“It’s a great reminder of the innovation and passion driving our industry forward.”
Panel swaps views on future reactors
During a panel discussion entitled ‘Going Modular’, Business Development Project Manager, Safi Syed, shared Urenco’s perspective on the role of small modular and advanced modular reactors (SMR/AMRs) in the future energy mix.
He emphasised the importance of supply chain alignment and the need to actively promote the sector among young people, students and early-career professionals. This is especially important because the industry will require a new generation of skilled professionals to meet future demand.
He said: “Attracting young talent to the nuclear sector requires fresh approaches, from stronger industry engagement to showcasing the exciting technologies shaping the industry.”
Key points during the session included the growing role of AI, the importance of intergenerational cooperation, the growing interest in LEU+ and HALEU based-fuels, next-generation reactor technologies and a strong focus on safety, security, and decommissioning.
During the forum, delegates also took part in soft skills training, networking events and technical tours, including a visit to the Krško Nuclear Power Plant in Slovenia, which also serves Croatia with energy.
Urenco is proud to support the development of young talent and to contribute to international forums like ENYGF, helping to enrich the future of nuclear through innovation, collaboration and knowledge-sharing.
Panel included enrichers, converters, miners and a laser enrichment company.
