Difficult to put into words. I left #F1 6 years ago dreaming of this day. Well done team @FLFusion! #fusion https://t.co/cUJvCDr3Hb

We’re pleased to announce the closing of our Series C fund raise, raising $45m from both new and existing investors. 2022 looks set to be another year of significant development, with this funding accelerating the development of our “gain” experiment #fusion #fundraise #cleantech

Congratulations to my great friend and brilliant race engineer @julien_sc for starting his own business. His passion for motorsport will make https://t.co/MQOnVk3CE3 a success!

[Gianluca Pisanello @gpq1971]

Very good article. Balanced and with great pics and diagrams! Well done @thomas_m_wilson and @FinancialTimes!

Here's our CEO @FLF_Nick discussing our #fusion tech with @BorisJohnson in this clip released by @tradegovuk!

[First Light Fusion @FLFusion]

@BorisJohnson was certainly interested in the potential power from our tiny target as seen here in this short clip #fusion #cleantech

[Gianluca Pisanello @gpq1971]

And what an honour to be invited at the reception at Windsor Castle hosted by Her Majesty the Queen, where I had the chance to talk about #fusion with Prince William. @KensingtonRoyal

[Gianluca Pisanello @gpq1971]

@BorisJohnson visited our stand and now owns one of the very few @FLFusion demo targets!

[Gianluca Pisanello @gpq1971]

Yesterday at the #GlobalInvestmentSummit I was honoured to talk about @FLFusion with global business leaders including @BillGates #fusion #cleantech

[First Light Fusion @FLFusion]

We are one of 15 companies involved. The project builds on earlier peer-reviewed research by @FLF_Nick, which demonstrated that inertial fusion could deliver a Levelised Cost Of Energy (LCOE) competitive with renewables, an ideal candidate to complement them.

[First Light Fusion @FLFusion]

Great to have been selected to appear at @tradegovuk’s Global Investment Summit. We are looking forward to the opportunity to showcase our unique approach to inertial fusion to summit guests #fusion #engineering

[First Light Fusion @FLFusion]

We enjoyed showing our technology to @Ben_Morris1 at @BBCNews – we remain confident that #fusion is key to unlocking a clean energy future and is critical in helping us meet the UK’s net zero targets. Read the full story >> https://t.co/z90MhE3uwK #cleantech @FLF_Nick

Congrats to our Numerical Team on publishing this new paper @AIP_Publishing. Our modelling work is such a vital part of our fusion research. This paper gives insight into something not well understood and difficult to isolate. Well done team! https://t.co/FhIR1gjoeg
