The Event
The SMR Expo – Derby positions itself as the premier one-day meeting point for the UK’s rapidly growing small modular reactor sector. Bringing together technology developers, engineering firms, advanced manufacturing specialists, fuel-cycle innovators, regulators, and supply-chain integrators, the expo creates a focused environment for companies seeking to commercialise next-generation nuclear solutions.
Exhibitors
Exhibitors will range from SMR designers and component manufacturers to digital-twin providers, robotics and remote-handling specialists, consultancies, and workforce-development partners.
Attendees
Attendees will include energy developers, government stakeholders, investors, local authorities, national lab representatives, academic researchers, utility strategists, and procurement teams from major engineering groups. A curated speaker agenda will feature informed sessions on licensing and regulatory pathways, supply-chain readiness, new materials and fabrication technologies, funding and financing frameworks, siting strategy, and practical case studies from leading SMR developers. Panel discussions will explore UK industrial opportunities, workforce needs, and the global export potential of SMR technologies.
Running this event in Derby
a city with deep engineering heritage and a growing nucleus of nuclear-capable suppliers – provides a natural anchor for an industry on the cusp of expansion. With governments and private investors accelerating SMR deployment timelines, the market is opening faster than suppliers can organise. A tightly focused, one-day SMR Expo gives companies an efficient platform to build early relationships, secure strategic partners, and position themselves at the front of the supply-chain curve. It is a high-value event designed for a high-growth market.
