The Nuclear Institute Young Generation Network will host a South West Exhibition and Networking Event and the NI Annual Speaking Competition 2018

Following on from the success of the last three years, this promises to be another fantastic afternoon and evening and will be open to all (including YGN members, non-members and more senior delegates).  The event will be free to attend for both delegates and exhibitors but spaces may be limited so please register your interest early.

Attendees will be invited to arrive from around 4.00pm. There will be a welcome speech at around 4.30pm, after which attendees will be free to network over drinks and nibbles and speak to many of the companies and representatives from across the industry who will be exhibiting and distributing merchandise.  Burges Salmon will also be hosting the Western Branch round of the NI speaking competition on the same evening, which will be starting at around 6pm.  Attendees for the exhibition and networking event are very welcome to stay and watch the speaking competition - and all YGN attendees are encouraged to enter!

The event will provide an excellent opportunity for YGN members and non-members to find out more about companies working in the nuclear sector, make new contacts, catch up with old contacts, discuss opportunities for collaboration, and increase awareness of some of the career opportunities on offer within the industry.
