The 2025 ANS Winter Conference promises to be one of the year’s most exciting and informative educational and networking events for attendees from every facet of nuclear science and technology. If you’re interested in expanding your knowledge, sharing ideas, and networking, don’t miss this opportunity.
In addition, the Expo will give attendees a glimpse into the applications of new technology through three days of exhibits and special events. The Expo will also give attendees many opportunities to network with each other and establish new professional relationships while having food and fun in a friendly and informal setting.
Over a quarter of our audience has decision-making and buying power (CNO, COO, VP and Senior level staff). These powerful decision-makers control huge budgets and attend the Winter Conference with serious purchasing intent, looking for new technology solutions and practical innovations that best fit their operations’ needs.
Is your organization looking to bring on new talent with fresh ideas and energy? Thirty two percent of our audience are students and young members, just finishing college or looking for their first opportunity in the industry. Make your presence known to graduates from some of the top universities in the world.
Authors and presenters are cordially invited to participate in this event to exchange ideas and knowledge, develop strong relationships across organizations, and establish collaborations to solve challenging problems. Please submit summaries describing work that is new, significant and relevant to the conference topics. ANS will publish all accepted and presented summaries in the conference’s TRANSACTIONS .
