Institutional investors will gather with companies spanning uranium mining to fusion at the inaugural ROTH Emerging Nuclear Technology Conference, hosted by ROTH Capital Partners on October 1, 2026, at 1 Hotel Central Park in New York City. The event, for which B2i Digital, Inc. serves as Marketing Partner, aims to connect public and private nuclear companies with investors through one-on-one and small group meetings from 9:00 AM to noon and 1:30 to 4:00 PM.
The conference underscores the nuclear sector's critical role in meeting rising energy demands, particularly from artificial intelligence. "Every conversation about AI includes the question, how do we power the demand for it? These are the companies working on the answer," said David Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer of B2i Digital. The day begins with a keynote by Jay Yu, Founder and Executive Chairman of NANO Nuclear Energy Inc., at 8:40 AM. Over lunch, Craig Irwin, Managing Director and Senior Research Analyst for Sustainability at ROTH, moderates a fireside chat at 12:05 PM with Kevin McGurn, Interim CEO of Trump Media & Technology Group Corp., TAE Technologies' pending merger partner. A panel featuring executives from Hadron Energy, Deep Isolation, SuperCritical Materials, and Terra Innovatum follows at 12:45 PM, with a cocktail reception closing the event at 4:00 PM.
Confirmed participants include uranium miners such as Anfield Energy, Denison Mines, Jaguar Uranium, and Uranium Energy Corp.; fuel cycle companies like Centrus Energy and SuperCritical Materials; reactor developers including Deep Fission, Terrestrial Energy, Hadron Energy, NANO Nuclear Energy, and Terra Innovatum; used-fuel management firm Deep Isolation; and fusion company TAE Technologies. The Air Force Office of Energy Assurance will also participate. This broad representation highlights the comprehensive approach needed to advance nuclear technology and addresses key challenges in the fuel cycle and waste disposal.
The conference's significance lies in its potential to accelerate investment in nuclear technologies, which are increasingly seen as vital for powering AI data centers and achieving energy resilience. As AI's energy consumption surges, the demand for reliable, low-carbon power sources makes nuclear energy an attractive solution. By facilitating direct dialogue between investors and nuclear innovators, the event could drive capital toward projects that enhance energy security and sustainability.
