World Nuclear Exhibition

World Nuclear Exhibition is the event of the Groupement des Industriels Français de l’Énergie Nucléaire (GIFEN), organised by RX France every two years. The next world event for the civil nuclear industry will be held in Paris Nord Villepinte, France, from December 7 to 9, 2027.

Resolutely international and business-oriented, WNE covers all areas of the nuclear sector, from energy to other application markets like medicine, agriculture & space.

More than 1000 international exhibitors will be showcasing their know-how and skills to highly qualified international decision-makers (governments, institutions, etc.) and numerous official delegations.

Promosalons Germany delegations work with the show to find exhibitors, and several countries (Bulgaria, Romania, Canada, Korea, Finland, Italy, Norway, Poland, Czech Republic, Sweden, and Turkey) are promoting the show to visitors.

The show reflects the dynamism and innovation of the sector through several events:

• The WNE Startup Program: this program aims to support entrepreneurs in the civil nuclear sector by offering them visibility and a unique experience during the show. 20 startups are selected and highlighted in the official program of the show through a mentoring program, a stand in the start-up village and the opportunity to win the favorite prize.
• The WNE Innovation Awards recognize excellence and innovation in various fields of civil nuclear power.

World Nuclear Exhibition has structured the 2025 edition around two major themes:

• Nuclear today and tomorrow: levers for accelerating programmes, financing strategies,
  standardisation, artificial intelligence, fusion, new generations of reactors and the supply chain
• Electricity & Beyond: nuclear applications beyond electricity (medicine, agriculture, space, heat, hydrogen, desalination)

Internationally renowned speakers joined Sylvie Bermann, Ambassador of France and President of WNE, during the three days of the exhibition to discuss these themes and consolidate the momentum of the civil nuclear industry.
