The members of the Next Generation Speakers Bureau, having had their presentations vetted and reviewed by the PONI team, are among the best and brightest young and emerging nuclear experts the Project on Nuclear Issues has to offer. These battle-tested speakers have presented on their areas of expertise at conferences in the past and stand ready to lend a fresh voice on nuclear matters to your next engagement. If you are interested in inviting one of the speakers to present at your next conference, event or class contact Sarah Minot at SMinot@csis.org or (202) 741-3878.
