Nuclear Knowledge Exchange: A Speed Networking Event with CNS

Following the success of our 2025 collaboration, the Canadian Nuclear Society (CNS) and North American Young Generation in Nuclear (NAYGN) are back to keep the momentum going! This event was so popular last year it sold out in record time… so get your tickets fast! We are bridging the gap between seasoned technical experts and the next generation of professionals. The event begins with an industry focused Keynote, followed by structured speed networking centered on pre-selected technical topics. Whether your interests lie in reactor physics or the evolving role of AI, this is a unique forum for high-impact knowledge sharing. Hors d’oeuvres and refreshments will be available, with options for dietary requirements. Space is limited to maintain an intimate, discussion‑friendly atmosphere, so please register early.
