Turning ambition into action is straightforward, right? To find out how "straightforward" it really is, ahead of the 2024 Global Forum for Nuclear Innovation event, we're embarking on a piece of research to dive into the ways in which ambition is being turned into action in the #nuclearindustry. Keep an eye out for how you can get involved. #GFNI #ResearchReport #AmbitionintoAction #Nuclearinnovation #NetZero #CleanEnergy
