With an audience of over 4,500 quarterly readers and subscribers across management, procurement and suppliers in all tiers of the supply chain, it provides an unparalleled platform for any nuclear business to be a part of.

As a signatory of the NDA Supply Chain Charter, we aim to foster good working relations across the NDA estate s supply chain. Nuclear Connect works in partnership with many of the leading industry events, such as TotalDECOM and the Nuclear Decommissioning Conference, adding further value for any company operating in the nuclear industry. Each quarterly edition is carefully put together to provide Q&As, topical features on key industry issues, regular sections focusing on health & safety, law, training and recruitment, up-to-date industry news, events information, and a vibrant showcase for new products and services. By combining timely and informative content with an extensive supply chain directory, we have created a publication that bridges the gap between buyers and suppliers and helps you do business. All of this and more is available in print and now digitally on ipad and tablet.
