The International Youth Nuclear Congress 2026 (IYNC2026) will take place from October 4 to 9, 2026, at the Palais des Papes in Avignon, in France, with the support of the IAEA and in partnership with SFEN Jeunes Génération.

This event, which will bring together several hundred young professionals and students from all around the world, is already supported through sponsorship by major industry players such as Urenco, Westinghouse, Assystem, Tractebel, and Nuvia.
Sponsoring this event is an opportunity to:
  • Benefit from international exposure through our communication channels (website, social media, newsletters, etc.)
  • Gain direct access to a pool of qualified talent (HR sourcing, CV collection, on-site interviews)
  • Provide concrete support for skills transfer and the renewal of expertise in a strategic sector for the energy transition
  • Build lasting relationships with professionals who will hold leadership positions in the sector over the next 10 to 15 years
  • Engage with an international community of young nuclear professionals outside the usual institutional channels
