  First concrete marks start of safety-related construction for Hermes test reactor
  Kairos Power announced this morning that safety-related nuclear construction has begun at the Oak Ridge, Tenn., site where the company is building its Hermes low-power test reactor. Hermes, a scaled demonstration of Kairos Power’s fluoride salt–cooled, high-temperature reactor technology, became the first non–light water reactor to receive a construction permit from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in December 2023. The company broke ground at the site in July 2024.

This panel will discuss what organizations should consider when planning work digitalization efforts. Digitalization is the use of digital technologies to change a business model and provide new revenue and value-producing opportunities. Digitalization is the use of information to optimize work processes, and it is the process of moving to a digital business. Work Digitalization is the integration of people, processes, and digital technologies to further improve effectiveness, cost-competitiveness, and safety. In this panel session, we highlight progress on a program of research focused on providing the industry with the what, why, and how of work digitalization.
