FR The Talents for Nuclear Foundation
The Talents for Nuclear Foundation is a foundation hosted by the Fondation de France.
It was created on 8 December 2016 thanks to the support and donations of three companies - Assystem, Apave and NUVIA - to support theINSTN in its ambition to be a major player in the field of low-carbon energy education and research on the international scene and in the field of entrepreneurship.
Its purpose is to develop, enhance and support training to accompany the nuclear industry and the development of low-carbon, nuclear and renewable energies.
The objectives of the foundation
Three companies - APAVE, ASSYSTEM and NUVIA - have joined together with the INSTN to :
The attractiveness of the nuclear sector, particularly to future students.
The knowledge and know-how of the nuclear industry, through the teaching of the INSTN school.
Equal opportunities for students and improving student living conditions.
A foundation focused on a sector of the future
Energy transition, fight against global warming, health of populations, waste management... The challenges of the French nuclear industry are multiple and affect all low-carbon solutions, nuclear and renewable energies.
These fields require a high level of technical expertise and the mastery of complex projects. The nuclear sector, both in its industrial and medical applications, needs talent more than ever.
The nuclear industry is evolving - New reactor offers, maintenance and ageing of installations, safety, dismantling, means of detection, partnerships: these are all strategic subjects which have consequences on training cycles, research, innovation and the skills to be developed for companies.
Energy consumption is changing - the energy mix now involves renewable energy, energy saving, and links between energy types and energy storage solutions. All these issues will have major consequences for decision-makers and experts, particularly in terms of short and medium-term investments and the skills required.
