SHINE secures $263M US Department of Energy loan for world's largest medical isotope production facility

SHINE Technologies has received a conditional commitment for a $263 million loan from the US Department of Energy to complete Chrysalis, set to become the world's largest medical isotope production facility. The facility will produce molybdenum-99, used in over 40,000 daily medical procedures for diagnosing heart disease and cancer. Chrysalis will provide the first domestic commercial supply of Mo-99, reducing reliance on international imports from Europe, South Africa and Australia. The facility will use proprietary fusion technology combined with recycled liquid uranium targets to produce millions of doses annually. The project will create approximately 200 construction jobs and 150 permanent positions in Janesville. The initiative follows over 15 years of collaboration with US National Laboratories and support from the National Nuclear Security Administration.

How Far Away is Fusion Energy? The debate is coming to SXSW.

How Far Away is Fusion Energy? The debate is coming to SXSW. Everyone asks the same question about fusion energy: when? The question worth asking is this: What does it take to make fusion work in the real world - under real economic pressures, real regulatory requirements, and real customer expectations? That's the conversation SHINE Technologies, LLC. is bringing to SXSW 2026. On March 16, its founder and CEO Greg Piefer joins a live panel at the JW Marriott for The Great Fusion Debate: How Far Away Are SHINE Technologies, LLC. Really? - a session designed to define how fusion energy progress should be judged. Why fusion's timeline has become a planning problem Fusion energy promises abundant, carbon-free power by harnessing the same reactions that fuel the sun. Its potential has driven decades of scientific effort and billions of dollars in investment. But as companies race to build AI data centers, governments revisit climate timelines, and investors weigh long-horizon bets, the tension between fusion's promise and its near-term feasibility has become harder to ignore. Companies building energy-intensive infrastructure are making bets on when fusion could factor into their power strategy. Governments writing climate policy are deciding how much weight fusion deserves in the near term. Investors are pricing long-horizon risk against a technology that keeps moving the goalpost. The gap between fusion's promise and its near-term realities is growing - and it's shaping decisions in boardrooms and legislatures, not just research labs. How you judge fusion progress - what counts, what doesn't, and why - has become as consequential as the underlying physics. What Greg brings to the fusion energy debate Greg's perspective is grounded in something most fusion voices don't have: the experience of deploying fusion technology in active commercial markets today. SHINE Technologies, LLC. operate fusion systems for neutron testing. SHINE Technologies, LLC. produce medical isotopes. And SHINE Technologies, LLC. is developing capabilities for used nuclear fuel recycling. That means its systems must perform reliably, hold up under regulatory scrutiny, and make economic sense - every day, not in a future projection. That experience shapes how Greg thinks about the path forward. "The physics works," Greg says. "The economics are getting closer." SXSW Fusion Energy Panel Moderated by Jacob Goldstein, host of What's Your Problem?, this SXSW 2026 panel on fusion energy brings together different vantage points on one of the harder questions in energy today. * Greg Piefer, Founder and CEO, SHINE - engineering and commercial realities * Luke Ward, Investment Director, Baillie Gifford - long-horizon capital and risk * Melanie Windridge, Founder, Fusion Energy Insights - industry-wide tracking of advances and setbacks What the session is designed to do This session is about sharpening judgment on a question that's already influencing real decisions. The conversation is useful beyond fusion, too. Whether you're allocating capital, building infrastructure, or just trying to make sense of competing technology claims, the ability to distinguish genuine progress from optimistic framing is increasingly valuable. That's the practical upside of this session - a more disciplined framework for evaluating ambitious technology at the moment it starts to matter. Not just for fusion, but for any deep tech category where timelines shape decisions before the technology arrives. Session Details * Event: SXSW 2026 * Date: Monday, March 16, 2026 * Time: 10:00-11:00 a.m. CT * Location: JW Marriott, Room 201-202 * Format: Live panel with audience Q&A 3400 Innovation Ct.

It was going to be a fairly business as usual top 10 list this week until OpenAI decided to disrupt our Friday with news that it raised $110 billion in new funding. Yes, $110 billion. That is so much money, and so record-setting as a private company funding round, that it makes all those other $100 million and $200 million rounds we usually write about look very paltry by comparison. That said, we did nonetheless see a number of these kinds of rounds, in sectors including semiconductors, AI, healthcare and biotech. 1. OpenAI, $110B, artificial intelligence: Generative AI giant OpenAI announced that it has raised $110 billion in new investment at a valuation of $730 billion pre-money, or $840 billion post-money.

Honest Health, $140M, healthcare: Nashville, Tennessee-based Honest Health, a provider of tech-enabled tools for primary care providers, secured $140 million in a new financing led by NewSpring. 7. Slate Medicines, $130M, biotech: Slate Medicines, a startup working on therapeutics for headache disorders, announced its launch alongside $130 million in Series A financing. RA Capital Management, Forbion Capital Partners and Foresite Capital led the investment for the Raleigh, North Carolina-based company. 8. Ubicquia, $106M, smart infrastructure: Fort Lauderdale, Florida-based Ubicquia, provider of an analytics platform for smart lighting, grid monitoring and public safety applications, raised $106 million in Series D funding. 67 Capital and Marunouchi Innovation Partners led the financing for the 12-year-old company. 9. (tied) Basis, $100M, AI-enabled accounting: Basis, an AI agent platform for accountants, closed on $100 million in Series B funding at a $1.15 billion valuation. Accel led the round for the New York-based startup, along with Google Ventures, Lloyd Blankfein and Khosla Ventures. 9. (tied) Aalyria, $100M, satellite and network communication: Google spinout Aalyria, a developer of software that configures communications satellites to meet demand, secured $100 million in Series B funding. Battery Ventures and J2 Ventures led the financing for the Livermore, California-based company. 9.
