The most recent Up and Atom Breakfast was held in May, the focus of the meeting was the Intermountain-West Energy Corridor and its goals and projects. INEC is one of the 31 Economic Development Administration’s designated Tech Hub’s and the only one with a nuclear focus. The presentation included going over the 4 main projects that INEC has designated focusing on: commercialization and policy, accelerating advanced reactor deployment, supply chain development, and fuels cycle support. If you would like access to the presentations made that day, they are available on our members-only portal.

Up and Atom Breakfasts usually have 70+ people in attendance, allowing the Up and Atom to have a great reach into many areas of the community. Those that attend include elected officials and delegates, subcontractors who partner with Department of Energy Contractors in the area, local business owners, leaders in education and more. Speakers have included scientists, heads of regional economic development organizations, government officials, and leaders in the energy industry.

More Up and Atom Breakfast events are planned to take place over the coming year to continue to educate the public on the energy sector, gather opinions and ideas and allow people to get involved.
