Women in Nuclear

Program Strefy: „Nuclear. Powered by Women.”

Nuclear Zone “Nuclear. Powered by Women” organized by Women in Nuclear (WiN) Polska focuses on the role of nuclear energy in shaping Poland’s technological future. The zone will include a mini‑Stage featuring debates, keynotes, power talks, and workshops. A program aimed at competence development, increasing the visibility of women leaders, and building a talent pipeline for the nuclear sector. A key highlight of the space will be the Nuclear Experience Zone, an interactive area designed to bring nuclear technology closer to participants through hands‑on learning.

WiN Poland’s presence at the Women in Tech Summit highlights the importance of nuclear energy as one of the key elements of the future energy and technology landscape, in line with this year’s event theme, “UNLEASH NEW ENERGY.” Thanks to this collaboration, the Nuclear Zone will become a space where experts, students, and future engineers can gain knowledge, build relationships, find inspiration, and explore new career opportunities in the nuclear industry.

Nuclear Zone is powered by WiN Polska with, Bechtel Corporation, Westinghouse Electric Company, Atkins Realis, GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, Steady Energy, Powen Wafapomp, OSGE, EDF, Urząd Dozoru Technicznego, Rockfin, Unibep i Amentum.

Nuclear Experience Zone – “Nuclear. Powered by Women”

Step into the Nuclear Experience Zone—an interactive space where technology meets inspiration. Designed to bring the world of nuclear energy closer to participants, the zone will feature hands‑on, immersive elements that showcase how modern reactors work and how innovation is shaping the future of clean energy.

Visitors will explore reactor models, engage in a VR experience that takes them inside a nuclear reactor, and—most uniquely—take on the role of an operator by using a robotic arm to safely refuel a reactor, simulating real-life processes in a controlled, engaging environment.

Created by Women in Nuclear (WiN) Polska, this space not only demystifies nuclear technology but also highlights the critical role of women in driving innovation across the sector. The Nuclear Experience Zone invites students, professionals, and future engineers to learn by doing, connect with experts, and discover exciting career paths in nuclear energy.
