Welcome to UKAEA Discovery Day 2025!
Join us on Wednesday 8 October 2025 at Culham Campus for the second edition of UKAEA’s Discovery Day – a celebration of our people, our progress, and our mission.
We encourage all staff to attend and would like to see as many people as possible at the event!
Following the success of Discovery Day 1, which saw over 700 staff attend in person and thousands engage online, we’re excited to bring you another inspiring and interactive event designed to:
· Build understanding of UKAEA as we continue to evolve
· Celebrate achievements across the organisation
· Encourage networking and collaboration between teams
Whether you're attending in person or joining online, Discovery Day 2025 offers a chance to connect, learn, and be part of shaping UKAEA’s future.

- Talks and panel discussions in the John Adams Lecture Theatre (JALT)
- Team building challenges in Building C8 (opposite C7)
- A showcase exhibition highlighting all Directorates, sites and staff networks in C8
