Founded in 1998, by Nuclear Transport Solutions of the United Kingdom, Orano of France and the Federation of Electric Power Companies (FEPC) of Japan, the World Nuclear Transport Institute (WNTI), a Non-Governmental Organisation, was created to represent the collective interests of the nuclear and radioactive materials transport industry and those who rely on the safe, secure, efficient, sustainable and reliable transport.

WNTI prides itself on being a diverse and inclusive membership network, that believes industry collaboration is essential for progress. With over 24 years’ experience, WNTI has grown to be an organisation with 50 international member companies all involved in activities across the nuclear fuel cycle and supply chain – providing them a platform and the resources needed to help make a difference.

Operating successfully as a membership network organisation, WNTI has a small team of qualified professionals working closely with its members and international bodies.

As an institute, we are passionate about resolving technical challenges, lobbying policy makers, giving a voice to our members and promoting debate within the industry.

At the event we strive not only to bring you to the same location at the same time as your customers/suppliers/peers, we strive to ensure you meet face-to-face with each and every one of your target contacts and to provide you with the time you need to have multiple unhurried conversations with them and build a lasting business relationship:

• A pre-event informal introduction the evening before the conference
• A minimum of five hours’ networking built into the two day conference agenda
• A networking grid which enables you to make your target contacts aware you are looking for them
• The option to join either social drinks or dinner during the evening of Day One
• ACI’s on-site team will assist you in locating your hard-to-find target contacts & make face-to-face introductions

Of course, if there is anybody you are unable to meet over the two days, ACI’s event team will do their best to initiate contact after the event.
