Industry Impact Series Presented by The University of Arizona

Thursday, September 10, 2026 (5:00 PM - 7:00 PM) (MST)

Description


The Promise of Fusion Energy

Presented by the University of Arizona in partnership with the Chamber of Southern Arizona, this is the second in a four-part series spotlighting the research priorities shaping the future.

The U of A is leading the next frontier in fusion energy – the process that powers the sun, fusing hydrogen atoms under extreme heat and pressure – to deliver a clean, safe, sustainable and virtually limitless energy source here on Earth. Recent projections cite that fusion commercialization could boost global GDP by $68 trillion and generate a trillion-dollar energy industry. With fusion energy at the core of the U of A's research and strategic imperatives, this is the right place at the right time for fusion breakthroughs, commercialization and workforce development.

The international race to commercialize fusion is on. The U of A is seizing the moment, right here in Tucson.

Join the experts for a fireside chat on what's next in advancing commercial fusion opportunities, and discover how the region is positioned to become a global hub for the industry that will power the next century.

Speakers to be announced and registration to open soon.
