Nuclear Niche: Speaker Event October 16th – Kairos Power

  • October 16, 2025

Nuclear Niche— a place where interdisciplinary students can come, network with industry experts, and talk about the full suite of deployment barriers (including technology, business, policy, talent, and legal challenges) we face ahead of us as an industry.

The first event will be co-sponsored with the KBH Center and our UT American Nuclear Society Student Chapter. We will be welcoming Evan Cummings, Senior Director of Business Development at Kairos Power to speak on the commercialization challenges for advanced nuclear reactors and how to bring them to market.

If you’re interested in how we develop the market and sell these reactors to customers, this is the talk for you! He’ll speak for about 30 minutes with plenty of time for student driven Q&A after. Food will be provided. Friends welcome.
