The inaugural ROTH Emerging Nuclear Technology Conference, hosted by ROTH Capital Partners at 1 Hotel Central Park in New York City on October 1, 2026, will bring institutional investors face-to-face with public and private companies from across the nuclear industry. B2i Digital, Inc. is the Marketing Partner for the event, which is part of a broader ROTH conference lineup that includes a healthcare day earlier the same week. The gathering matters because it places the full nuclear value chain—uranium mining, fuel cycle, small modular reactors, microreactors, used-fuel management, and fusion—in one room with the investors who fund it. As David Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer of B2i Digital, noted, every conversation about artificial intelligence eventually turns to how to power the demand, and these are the companies working on the answer.
The day begins with a keynote at 8:40 AM from Jay Yu, Founder and Executive Chairman of NANO Nuclear Energy Inc., a developer of microreactors including the KRONOS MMR and ZEUS, along with nuclear fuel fabrication and transportation businesses. One-on-one and small-group investor meetings run from 9:00 AM to noon and again from 1:30 to 4:00 PM. Over a working lunch, Craig Irwin, Managing Director and Senior Research Analyst for Sustainability at ROTH, moderates a 12:05 PM fireside chat with Kevin McGurn, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Trump Media & Technology Group Corp., the pending merger partner of TAE Technologies, Inc., a private fusion developer founded in 1998. A panel at 12:45 PM features executives from Hadron Energy, Deep Isolation, SuperCritical Materials, and Terra Innovatum. A cocktail reception closes the day at 4:00 PM.
The confirmed participant list illustrates the sector's breadth. Uranium miners include Anfield Energy Inc., Denison Mines Corp., Jaguar Uranium Corp., and Uranium Energy Corp. Fuel-cycle participants include Centrus Energy Corp., which produces high-assay, low-enriched uranium (HALEU) in Piketon, Ohio, and SuperCritical Materials Corp., which is developing industrial-scale nuclear fuel production infrastructure. Reactor developers include Deep Fission, Inc., Terrestrial Energy Inc., Hadron Energy, Inc., NANO Nuclear Energy Inc., and Terra Innovatum Global N.V. Used-fuel management is represented by Deep Isolation Nuclear, Inc., which develops permanent disposal solutions using directional boreholes. Fusion is represented by TAE Technologies, Inc., and the Air Force Office of Energy Assurance is also confirmed.
For investors, the conference offers a rare chance to compare business models across a sector that is attracting renewed attention as electricity demand from data centers and critical infrastructure rises.

The conference's significance extends beyond a single day of meetings. It signals that nuclear technology—long divided between established uranium producers and speculative advanced-reactor and fusion ventures—is being presented to institutional investors as a unified answer to energy security and decarbonization. With AI's power needs colliding with grid constraints, the companies meeting in New York represent the supply side of that equation, and the access provided by the event could shape which technologies attract the capital needed to move from development to deployment.
