Download File: https://fis360.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/OpenNuclear_Animation_New-logo-2025-1.mp4?_=1The United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory (UKNNL) is a world leader in nuclear innovation and is responsible for providing technical support to the UK’s nuclear sector, helping to solve global challenges in the following four strategic areas:
Having identified a number of technical challenges, UKNNL chose FIS360 to support the delivery of Open Nuclear to enable it to engage external organisations and tackle issues through developing new partnerships and leveraging external knowledge and capability. Having successfully delivered the Game Changers Innovation Programme for Sellafield Ltd for over 7 years, FIS360 had the experience and knowledge needed to establish a new route for solving UKNNL’s challenges.
The innovation platform is an important step in encouraging innovation and partnership, providing an opportunity for organisations to contribute to the nuclear industry’s future success.
As the delivery partner for Open Nuclear, FIS360 manages and delivers the programme in several stages:
Discover projects allow solution providers to connect with challenge owners to jointly develop effective solutions to the challenge. Once the Discover funding phase is complete, applicants have the opportunity to further develop their solution in partnership with UKNNL during a subsequent ‘Develop’ phase.
To support these activities, FIS360 have also hosted innovation surgeries, managed speculative funding applications to the programme, and coordinated programme communication.
Following a successful first year of Open Nuclear, our contract with UKNNL to continue to deliver the programme has been extended for a further 12 months.
By combining UKNNL’s nuclear expertise, FIS360’s experience of running highly successful open innovation programmes, and the ideas and skills our broad cross-sector network of applicants contribute, we hope to deliver innovative solutions that will provide benefits to UKNNL and the wider nuclear industry.
