KBR proudly joined nuclear industry stakeholders from across the UK as sponsors and attendees of the Nuclear Industry Association (NIA) and Nuclear Institute (NI) annual conference last month.

Attendees had the opportunity to network and learn about key industry developments over the past year, as well as looking ahead to 2022 and beyond. KBR’s Ben Sawford, global vice president for Advisory Consulting, spoke on a panel discussing ‘Nuclear for a Green Hydrogen Future’. Tom Purnell of Frazer-Nash, a KBR company, closed the conference discussing ‘Advanced Nuclear Technology: Where Are We?’.

“It was great to see the KBR team so prominent at the event,” said Ian Hudson, Government Solutions EMEA nuclear director. “All the discussion throughout the day suggests we have created a lot of interest in the market. The collaboration across the team in planning and delivering the event offers great insight into what can be achieved together in the future.”
