The future of nuclear isn't either/or.
The world urgently needs more power. Yet fission and fusion are still treated as separate categories with distinct futures. For Zap, they're part of the same technology continuum. Developing them together accelerates both, builds new opportunities, and creates advantages neither achieves alone.
Leadership
Zap brings together experts in plasma physics, nuclear engineering, advanced manufacturing, energy systems, and company building. Together, we're turning breakthrough science into deployable technologies designed to meet real world demands.
