​Reception to Follow at 5:00-7:00PM

​Arrive by 8:00 AM for Check-in and Coffee

​Alongside US and allied governments and industry partners, the Critical Minerals Forum, a nonprofit, is hosting a one-day industry convening focused on a central question:

​What constitutes a healthy isotope environment in the United States?

​This gathering will bring together leaders from government, industry, research institutions, and emerging technology sectors to:

• ​Identify and characterize real gaps across U.S. nuclear and medical isotope supply chains

• ​Engage with cutting-edge research on novel and next-generation isotope production

• ​Resolve data gaps to inform long-term frameworks for a resilient, commercially viable U.S. isotope ecosystem

​The day will span the full nuclear and medical isotope landscape, alongside the nuclear and industrial isotopes underpinning advanced manufacturing, national security, and frontier science.

​Sessions will move beyond high-level market commentary and into the operational middle ground the industry actually needs: aggregating demand across a 5-10 year horizon, understanding distribution and access bottlenecks, and identifying where private sector and government can work together more effectively — including a candid look at what help, investment, or regulatory clarity industry actually wants from government, if any.

​This is a working session, not a trade show. Expect roundtable-style discussion, panels, and small-group working sessions where producers, users, researchers, and federal stakeholders can engage directly on the questions regarding strategic stockpiles, single-isotope facility risk, and whether the industry would benefit from isotope pricing benchmarks.
