SOUTHWEST Session: Fusion Energy offers the potential for long-term, reliable and 24/7 available energy, using abundant fuel supplies without producing long-lived radioactive waste. How can we make fusion energy a reality? What are the opportunities and the challenges from a technology as well as workforce perspective? What do we need to do now to prepare the workforce and advance the technology for commercialization? Join this panel discussion to hear from the President of Tokomak Energy Inc., Dr. Michael Ginsberg, responsible for growing Tokamak Energy's U.S. market and strategic partnerships, along with Christian Newton, Chief of Staff for the Office of Science at the US Department of Energy, Dr. Robert Duckworth, Senior R&D Staff member in the Fusion Energy Division at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), and Dr. Allain, Associate Director of Science for Fusion Energy Sciences (FES) as they share their views on the opportunities and challenges Nuclear Fusion will need to address from a technology as well as workforce perspective.

SOUTHWEST Session: Unexpected breakdowns, rising costs, and limited asset visibility continue to be a challenge for manufacturers, especially as teams face mounting pressure to do more with less – fewer technicians, tighter budgets, and limited time. But with the right technology and a practical approach to reliability, lean teams can shift from fighting fires to building long-term, operational resilience into every layer of production. In this session, we’ll showcase how manufacturers are using modern CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System) tools to drive higher uptime, extend asset life, and reduce reactive work – all without needing additional headcount or new equipment. We’ll demonstrate how top performing teams have digitized preventive maintenance schedules, deployed QR code-enabled work orders, and built mobile-first maintenance workflows that keep machines running and teams aligned. Whether you’re still using spreadsheets or looking to get more out of your current system, this session will provide a clear blueprint for building a smart, scalable maintenance program.

SOUTHWEST Session: Driven by the rise of Edge AI, industrial machine health monitoring is undergoing a transformative shift—enabling smarter, faster, and more autonomous decision-making at the edge. In this session, we’ll explore how edge computing and artificial intelligence are converging to deliver real-time insights directly at the source of data generation, minimizing latency and enhancing responsiveness. We'll examine traditional Condition-based Monitoring (CbM) methods and their limitations in dynamic industrial environments, then dive into how predictive and prescriptive maintenance strategies—utilizing Edge AI—are anticipating failures, optimizing performance, and reducing costly downtime. This evolution is reshaping the future of industrial reliability, operational efficiency, and long-term asset sustainability.
