Description
Five short presentations by companies pursuing power and/or other applications and looking for seed or Series A funding followed by an interactive Q&A.
- Why is it important to investigate less-mature approaches when other, established approaches are moving ahead at pace?
- How do their risk profiles compare between capex-intensive approaches well-researched in public labs & simpler concepts pursued by others?
- What criteria do investors apply when researching and funding novel, early-stage fusion approaches? Or opportunities in the supply-chain?
- How can investments in alternative fusion approaches enhance a portfolio?
