SUMMARY:Nuclear Fusion: Reacting To Commercialization
DESCRIPTION:Nuclear Fusion\nReacting To Commercialization\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Tuesday\, November 14\, 2017\n6:00 pm to 8:30 pm\n6:00 pm: Reception and networking\n7:00 pm: Panel discussion (with Q&A) \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Successful entrepreneurs including Peter Thiel\, Paul Allen\, and Jeff Bezos are investing in innovative nuclear fusion startup companies\, such as Helion Energy\, Tri-Alpha\, and General Fusion. Lockheed Martin is building a compact fusion reactor prototype\, looking at future markets. These approaches are leaner and evolve faster than large government or international fusion projects. \nStartups may now apply AI to accelerate nuclear fusion. Innovative physics and AI technology provide nuclear fusion moon shots an opportunity to change the world\, disrupting future markets with cost-effective abundant energy. \nThe race to commercialization is accelerating\, as investors make socially responsible long-term commitments. While each machine is modest compared to government or international efforts\, their results point to multiple paths for commercialization of nuclear fusion. \nCome listen to a panel drawn from the frontier of commercialization of nuclear fusion.  \n\nLearn innovative commercial approaches to Nuclear Fusion\nUnderstand Socially Responsible Investing Options\nAsk your questions of the Pioneers!\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Moderator\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Rachel Slaybaugh\, APRA-E Program Director and Assistant Professor of Nuclear Engineering\, University of California\, Berkeley \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Panelists\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Michel Laberge\, Founder and Chief Scientist\, General Fusion \nMatthew Thompson\, Director of Physics\, Tri Alpha Energy \nTom McGuire\, Research Engineer and Scientist\, Lockheed Martin \nRay Rothrock\, Former General Partner\, Venrock\, Chair of NVCA\, and CEO of  Redseal \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				View or download flyer for event: \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Download the printable PDF. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				William R.
