SUMMARY:Innovate UK - Scoping workshop: Shaping a future innovation network for nuclear materials and manufacturing
DESCRIPTION:Innovate UK Business Connect is exploring the potential for a new innovation network focused on materials and manufacturing in demanding nuclear environments. This online workshop brings together stakeholders from industry\, academia\, research organisations\, supply chains\, and government to help shape this opportunity. \nParticipants will contribute insights on key challenges\, innovation needs\, and collaboration opportunities\, helping to determine whether a dedicated innovation network would provide value to the sector. \n\n\n\n\nAbout the event\nThis workshop forms part of an initial scoping and discovery phase to better understand the materials and manufacturing challenges facing the nuclear sector in demanding environments. The session is designed to gather broad community input and inform future priorities\, potential coordination\, and opportunities for collaboration. \nThe session will be discussion-led\, creating space for participants to share perspectives\, highlight capability gaps\, and explore where greater alignment or joint activity could accelerate progress. Short framing talks from key stakeholders will provide context on current challenges\, emerging needs\, and future opportunities across the ecosystem. \nIn addition to structured discussion\, the workshop will support networking and connection-building across the community\, helping participants identify shared interests\, complementary capabilities\, and potential collaborators. \nThe workshop will help determine whether a dedicated innovation network would provide value to the sector\, including supporting commercial opportunities\, strengthening UK supply chains\, and contributing to long-term economic growth. \n\n\n\n\nWhat areas of interest will be covered?\n\nAdvanced materials for demanding environments\nManufacturing and fabrication challenges\nQualification\, testing\, and validation\nHarsh environment operation and longevity\nInspection\, monitoring\, and maintenance\nRobotics and remote systems\nDigital tools\, modelling\, and simulation\nDecommissioning and waste-related challenges\nCross-sector learning and enabling technologies\n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend?\nWe welcome participation from organisations working across: \n\nNuclear fission\, fusion\, and supply chains\nAdvanced materials and manufacturing\nResearch\, academia\, and RTOs\nTechnology SMEs and innovators\nGovernment\, regulators\, and innovation organisations\n\nWhether you are developing new technologies\, addressing operational challenges\, supporting innovation\, or looking to build collaborations\, your input will help shape this emerging area. \n\n\n\n\nWhy attend?\nBy taking part\, you will have the opportunity to: \n\nContribute to shaping future activity and priorities\nShare perspectives on challenges and innovation needs\nGain insight into current sector challenges and opportunities\nHear from key stakeholders across the landscape\nIdentify potential collaborators and partners\nBuild connections across a cross-sector community\nHelp inform whether and how an innovation network could support the sector\n\n\n\n\n\nHow can you get involved?\n\nWhen registering for the workshop\, participants are invited to complete a 3-4 minute survey to capture additional input on:\n\nTechnical and innovation challenges\nCapability gaps\nCollaboration opportunities\nCommunity needs and priorities\nPotential areas for future activity\n\nIf you are unable to attend the event but would like to participate in the survey or follow up conversations\, please click here to give your input.\nParticipate in the Workshop Discussion\nExpress interest in a follow-up one-to-one conversation with the Knowledge Transfer Manager for Advanced Materials. Discussions are intended to provide space to explore challenges\, capabilities\, and collaboration interests in more detail.
