Helical Fusion participated in the Hyper Interdisciplinary Conference Singapore 2025, held on November 15 as part of a series of activities organized by Leave a Nest Singapore. The conference provided a platform for interdisciplinary discussions on how emerging technologies—including fusion energy—may influence future energy systems and broader societal structures.
During the event, our CEO Takaya Taguchi delivered a keynote address examining the implications of fusion energy for human civilization. Taguchi noted that the realization of fusion energy would represent a fundamental shift in humanity’s historical relationship with energy: transitioning from reliance on energy received from the Sun to the ability to generate such energy independently. He also highlighted that, beyond technological completion, the adoption of fusion energy will require careful consideration of the ethical and societal frameworks needed to support new global systems that may emerge.
Taguchi subsequently joined a panel discussion with Dr. Eddie Chua (A*STAR) and Mr. Matthew Chew (HY). The session focused on the role of cross-disciplinary collaboration in addressing both the technical and conceptual challenges associated with fusion energy development. Panelists discussed the importance of integrating perspectives from science, engineering, policy, and social research to ensure that advances in fusion technology are aligned with long-term regional and global needs.
The conference is part of Leave a Nest’s ongoing “Hyper Interdisciplinary” initiative, which has been held more than 50 times worldwide. The initiative aims to create new methodologies for addressing social issues through the integration of diverse fields and perspectives—an approach that is becoming increasingly relevant as fusion energy moves closer to practical application.
Helical Fusion will continue to collaborate across sectors and disciplines as it advances the development of fusion energy technologies.
