Oak Ridge, Tennessee, March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — LIS Technologies Inc. (“LIST” or “the Company”), a proprietary developer of superior laser know-how and the solely USA-origin and patented laser uranium enrichment firm, is happy to current the 4th Annual Energy & Elements Gala, going down Friday, March 20, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the American Museum of Science and Energy (AMSE) in Oak Ridge, TN.
ASME Foundation’s premier fundraising occasion, the Energy & Elements Gala helps STEAM schooling outreach applications all through the Tennessee Valley area, offering vital assets for Ok-12 college students and households. Organized and supported by native organizations, this yr’s Gala is proudly sponsored by LIS Technologies following the Company’s latest growth in Tennessee
LIST has pledged $1.38 billion to develop the world’s first U.S.-origin business laser uranium enrichment facility in Oak Ridge, creating 203 new jobs on the historic footprint of the Ok-25 Uranium Enrichment Site. The Company’s proprietary Condensation Repression Isotope Selective Laser Activation (CRISLA) know-how is a confirmed U.S.-origin and patented superior laser enrichment answer. Optimized for Low-Enriched Uranium (LEU), which is essential for the continued operation of the United States’ present fleet of 94 nuclear reactors, and High-Assay Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU), which is required to energy the subsequent era of superior nuclear reactors.

A spotlight of the night will likely be the presentation of the AMSE Excellence Awards, recognizing distinctive contributions to STEAM schooling at each native and nationwide ranges.
The Local Excellence Award will honor the collaborative staff behind the William J. Wilcox | Ok-25 Interpretive Center, together with the Department of Energy, the Army Corps of Engineers, the National Park Service (Manhattan Project National Historical Park), United Cleanup Oak Ridge (UCOR), metropolis historian Ray Smith, Gordon Fee, and the Wilcox Family. This new facility, situated at the coronary heart of Oak Ridge’s nuclear heritage, stands as a testomony to preservation efforts and honors the legacy of Bill Wilcox, the metropolis’s first historian and former Ok-25 worker who championed the web site’s historic significance.
The National Excellence Award will likely be introduced to Dr. Hash Hashemian, CEO of Analysis and Measurement Services Corporation and President of the American Nuclear Society, in recognition of his excellent management and contributions to advancing STEAM schooling and nuclear science nationally. As each an educator and business chief, Dr. Hashemian has revealed extensively, taught at universities, and served in advisory roles at state and federal ranges. His dedication to mentorship, analysis, and advocacy ensures that the subsequent era of scientists and engineers may have the data and assist to sort out tomorrow’s vitality challenges.
“We are honored to present the 4th Annual Energy & Elements Gala and to recognize this year’s Excellence Award recipients for their outstanding achievements,” mentioned Christo Liebenberg, President and Co-Founder of LIS Technologies. “Oak Ridge has long been a center of innovation in nuclear science and technology, and we are proud to deepen our connection to this remarkable community. The American Museum of Science and Energy, along with the Foundation that organizes this event, plays an important role in inspiring and preparing the next generation to meet the STEAM challenges of the future. We are pleased to support this event and contribute to an initiative that strengthens education and opportunity within the community.”

About LIS Technologies Inc.
LIS Technologies Inc. (LIST) is a USA primarily based, proprietary developer of a patented superior laser know-how, making use of infrared lasers to selectively excite the molecules of desired isotopes to separate them from different isotopes. The Laser Isotope Separation Technology (L.I.S.T) has an enormous vary of functions, together with being the solely USA-origin (and patented) laser uranium enrichment firm, and a number of other main benefits over conventional strategies akin to gasoline diffusion, centrifuges, and prior artwork laser enrichment. The LIST proprietary laser-based course of is extra energy-efficient and has the potential to be deployed with extremely aggressive capital and operational prices. L.I.S.T is optimized for LEU (Low Enriched Uranium) for present civilian nuclear energy vegetation, High-Assay LEU (HALEU) for the subsequent era of Small Modular Reactors (SMR) and Microreactors, the manufacturing of steady isotopes for medical and scientific analysis, and functions in quantum computing manufacturing for semiconductor applied sciences. The Company employs a world class nuclear technical staff working alongside main nuclear entrepreneurs and business professionals, possessing sturdy relationships with authorities and personal nuclear industries.
In Dec 2024, LIS Technologies Inc. was chosen as one in every of six home firms to take part in the Low-Enriched Uranium (LEU) Enrichment Acquisition Program. This initiative allocates as much as $3.4 billion general, with contracts lasting for as much as 10 years. Each awardee is slated to obtain a minimal contract of $2 million.
