Bill Riggins, of counsel for Modus, will present at the 3rd Global Small Modular Reactors Virtual Conference on April 19.

A U.S.-based attorney, Bill will deliver a legal perspective on the challenges and opportunities facing early SMR projects in the U.S. He’ll share insights from his work directly helping owners launch their own SMR projects.

Bill will speak about what has changed in recent years—and what has not—within the country’s political and policy climate. He’ll also cover other topics potential owners should consider as they decide whether to pursue developing an early SMR project. These include the current state of financing, commercialization, and regulatory and legal hurdles.

The annual conference brings together experts from around the world to talk about the latest developments related to SMRs, including topics like SMR design, construction, operation, and maintenance.

Updated 3/18/24: This event was changed from an in-person conference to a virtual one.
