Please join BENS as we partner with Georgia Tech to present a panel lunch where we will explore National Security and the Nuclear Renaissance. This discussion comes at a pivotal moment, as the security landscape shifts and challenges evolve, including those related to energy resilience. Are we utilizing the best and most secure methods of energy production and transmission?
This panel of experts aims to discuss the possibilities that nuclear energy presents, it’s potential draw-backs, and how it effects our national security now and in the future. Come hear from this expert panel and bring your questions for the Q&A portion as we delve into this timely and significant topic.
Our Panel:
- The Honorable John Tien, Distinguished Professor of the Practice at Georgia Tech, former Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security
- Anna Erickson, Professor of Nuclear Engineering at Georgia Tech and Director of the Consortium for Enabling Technologies and Innovation
- Marc Miller, Partner at ScottMadden with over 17 years of experience in the nuclear sector
We would also like to share a special thank you to Georgia Tech’s Laura Taylor, Director of the Energy Policy & Innovation Center, and Dr. Adam Stulberg, Chair and Professor at the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs, for their help in putting this together. In addition, our gratitude to our event sponsor Mr. Jeff Goldworn, BENS member and General Manager of the Buckhead Club.
This promises to be yet another thought-provoking and educational event and we hope that you can join us. Additionally, feel free to register and bring a friend who may have an interest in this topic.
