Performance and Lifetime Extension of the European Nuclear Fleet: The French Supply Chain Supporting European Energy Sovereignty and National Defense Challenges

In the context of a nuclear revival, the event will bring together key actors in the sector around the major themes shaping its future: modernization and sustainability of the existing infrastructure, adaptation to climate change, safety requirements, strengthening of industrial capacities, and the interplay between civil and defense-related issues. The French supply chain will be central to the discussions, with a focus on its ability to respond to national and European needs about supply, sovereignty, and innovation and to cooperate with Europeans players. Topics such as cybersecurity, European financing and the export of know-how to European markets will also be addressed, with the goal of providing concrete tools and support to companies in the industry. As in previous editions of the ‘Rendez Vous Nuclear Valley’, you will have the opportunity to take part in a number of B2B meetings scheduled throughout the three days : players in the civil and defence nuclear sectors take part in round tables and workshops.

How does AI help organize my schedule?

Arrow Down
Online Meetings Artificial Intelligence operates in two key stages in the process of generating targeted leads:
  • The participant catalogue is presented in descending order of relevance based on the information you provided in your profile. This helps you save time and ensures that you don’t miss potential matches during manual searches. However, you can still apply your own filters using inclusive or exclusive dropdown menus (AND/OR logic). ​
  • Once requests are accepted or declined, the algorithm optimizes everyone's schedules based on confirmed appointments—ensuring only qualified meetings​
