Additional Notes from the Meetings

Benson is the VP of People at General Matter. He is in charge of building the organizational chart of the company and hiring the right people to lead certain divisions. In his presentation, Benson shared details about all of the divisions being built at the company and how the diverse backgrounds of the NICE club members could fit into the org. General Matter is building Uranium enrichment capacity in the United States to serve the HALEU market that will grow with the deployment of advanced reactors. Although other companies, such as Centrus have HALEU enrichment capacity, General Matter intends to leverage their nimbleness as a startup to be competitive.
