Rider Levett Bucknall has signed up as a sponsorship partner for
the India Nuclear Energy Summit 2011.
The event takes place in Mumbai, India from 8-9 September and
will feature prominent industry leaders and government officials
who will lead discussions relating to India's current and future
energy needs.
Rider Levett Bucknall has more than 25 years' experience of
working in the nuclear sector both in Europe and the United States
of America. It currently works across a range of nuclear
sites and energy projects including Okiluoto 3 (OL3) in Finland,
Western Europe's first new nuclear reactor to be built in a
decade.
The property and construction cost consultants last month (June)
opened an office in Mumbai to maximise the potential of the Indian
energy market as well as more general property and construction
opportunities.
Mark Weaver, head of energy for Rider Levett Bucknall said:
"Our sponsorship commitment to the Summit together with the
launch of our first Indian office in Mumbai reflects the importance
we place on the growth of the Indian market and the opportunities
it brings.
"Rider Levett Bucknall teams from both the UK and India will be
attending the show. We are talking to a number of tier one
and tier two suppliers both in the UK and overseas and with India's
aim to supply 25% of electricity from nuclear power by 2050 it
makes strategic and natural sense to be a sponsorship partner
of this prominent event.
