Register for Thorium Energy Conference 2010

It's Time To Talk

Thorium Energy Conference 2010 provides a unique and convenient, cross-disciplinary platform, for people involved in the field of thorium energy to be introduced, to speak, and to discover.

ThEC2010 will be held at the prestigious Royal Institution located in Mayfair, central London.

The conference will start with reception and registration at RI from 16:00 on Sunday the 17th of October and continues with three days of all things thorium energy until the afternoon on the 20th of October. Drinks and food are included in the price.

Places are reserved primarily for those who contribute (see form at the bottom of page), and early registrants. Therefore we ask you kindly to book today and explain your involvement and interest in thorium energy.
