PTAG at CNA 2026: Driving Project Delivery Excellence, Industry Collaboration, and Future Talent

/in , , , , /by

PTAG is pleased to be a sponsor of the Canadian Nuclear Association (CNA) Conference & Trade Show 2026, taking place April 28–30 at the Rogers Centre in Ottawa. This event brings together leaders and stakeholders shaping the future of nuclear energy in Canada.

As nuclear continues to play a critical role in Canada’s clean energy strategy, the industry is experiencing significant investment across refurbishment, new build, and emerging technologies such as small modular reactors. Delivering these complex projects requires strong governance, integrated project controls, and disciplined execution to ensure predictable outcomes.

As part of our contribution to CNA 2026, Michael Dubreuil, Managing Partner at PTAG, will be speaking on the Seasons Stage in a featured session titled “How Collaborative Project Models Are Shaping Nuclear Megaproject Outcomes” on April 29 from 11:15 to 12:00 EST.

In collaboration with the Nuclear Waste Management Organization, this session will explore how collaborative contracting and advanced delivery models are helping align stakeholders, improve risk management, and strengthen outcomes across complex nuclear projects. Using Canada’s Deep Geological Repository (DGR) program as a reference point, the discussion will highlight key principles such as early integration, shared governance, transparency, and joint accountability. Attendees will gain practical insight into how these approaches can enhance predictability, resilience, and public confidence.

PTAG is also proud to support the next generation of industry professionals as a sponsor of the Student Talent Collider at CNA 2026, in collaboration with Ontario Tech University. This initiative creates a dedicated space for students and recent graduates to connect directly with industry leaders, fostering meaningful conversations, mentorship opportunities, and real-world insight into careers in the nuclear sector. By supporting programs like the Talent Collider, PTAG continues to invest in building a strong, future-ready workforce.

We invite you to visit PTAG at Booth #228 to connect with our team and learn more about how we support successful outcomes across Canada’s nuclear landscape.

PTAG is pleased to announce our participation as an exhibitor at CNA WEST 2025, taking place October 20–22 at TCU Place in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. This inaugural western conference hosted by the Canadian Nuclear Association marks a pivotal moment for the nuclear industry, as Saskatchewan and Alberta take bold steps toward deploying Small Modular Reactor (SMR) technology.

Under the theme “Foundations for the Future,” CNA WEST will bring together key stakeholders—government, regulators, Indigenous leaders, supply chain partners, and new entrants—to explore what it takes to successfully build a nuclear energy sector in the Prairie provinces. From workforce development and regulatory readiness to community engagement and funding models, the conference will address the critical enablers that will shape the region’s energy landscape for decades to come.

Come meet our team at our booth ( #126) and discuss how we can help you move from concept to execution. On site will be:

  • Andrew Dubreuil, Project Manager, Consultant
  • Chris Deidun, Partner, Business Development
  • Jeremy Rasmussen, Partner, CTO
  • Jim Welsh, Director, Project Control Services

Whether you’re exploring market entry, project development, or execution support, our team is here to share insights, exchange ideas, and explore collaboration opportunities.

Let’s Connect in Saskatoon

We’re looking forward to engaging with industry leaders, new market players, and community stakeholders who are helping shape the next era of nuclear energy in Western Canada.

📍 Stop by our booth (#126) at CNA WEST or reach out to schedule a meeting.

Together, let’s build the foundation for a safe, sustainable, and reliable nuclear future.

CNA Annual Conference 2024: Foundations for Success

/in , /by

PTAG is proud to be a Silver Sponsor for the Canadian Nuclear Association’s (CNA) Annual Conference in Ottawa, February 28 – March 1.

Canada is set to rapidly expand its nuclear sector in both existing and new markets, built on a foundation of growing government and public support. However, long-term success depends on the industry amplifying successful initiatives and actions, anticipating future needs and emerging challenges, and aligning across borders to enable efficient scaling and rapid deployment. The sector will need to take full advantage of a range of opportunities including capitalizing on and building human talent, fostering public and private financing, accelerating research and innovation, forging meaningful and lasting Indigenous partnerships, and ensuring future fuel supply.

For the nuclear industry to fully realize these opportunities and ensure nuclear can play an even more fundamental role in Canada’s clean energy future, cooperation and coordination are more important than ever. At CNA2024, we will highlight the ways in which the sector can work together and with partners to build the foundations for success.

As part of PTAG’s long-term industry commitment to support more new and young people joining the Nuclear industry, we will be leading two initiatives during the conference:

  • Already underway, we have designed and are delivering 8 sessions that help the nearly 100 students attending the conference make the most of the experience as they meet potential employers for the first time
  • In collaboration with Ontario Tech University’s TALENT group, we have designed and will facilitate the speed dating format “Talent Collider,” which brings those new to the industry with Senior Executives

Visit us in the main lobby at our booth (#207) to learn more about how PTAG is helping the nuclear industry deliver projects successfully.
