Accelerating Nuclear Fusion Research with AI
Nuclear fusion has long been viewed as the ultimate clean energy solution. Scientifically validated, yet commercially out of reach. That equation is now beginning to shift.
Join Puja Gupta, Executive Vice President at Marvel Fusion, for a focused discussion on how artificial intelligence is accelerating progress in nuclear fusion and reshaping timelines once thought to span decades.
Marvel Fusion is a European deep tech company working to commercialize laser-driven nuclear fusion as a reliable, carbon-free energy source. By combining advanced laser technology, high-performance computing, and AI-led simulation and optimization, the company is aiming to move fusion from experimental success to industrial-scale power generation.
Drawing on this real-world experience at the frontier of fusion innovation, Puja will share how AI is being applied across simulation, materials discovery, laser system control, and system-level optimization. The session will cut through the hype to focus on what is genuinely working, what remains fundamentally hard, and what it will take to bring fusion energy to the grid.
Hosted at LT2, Cambridge Judge Business School, this session is designed for students, founders, investors, and policymakers interested in deep tech, climate innovation, and the future of energy systems.
