Furthermore, we continued our technical&nbsp;and commercial&nbsp;contributions to the UK\u2019s flagship STEP program through advanced magnet technology development and other collaborative initiatives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Japan, we engaged in close dialogue with a wide range of government leaders and agencies working to advance the nation\u2019s fusion energy strategy.&nbsp;&nbsp;Throughout this period, the Japanese government articulated its commitment to achieving fusion power generation demonstration in the 2030s, positioning fusion energy as a clear national priority. These discussions unfolded alongside growing policy momentum, with our ongoing engagement with government stakeholders&nbsp;playing&nbsp;an active role.&nbsp;Participating in Global Expo Osaka this year through multiple opportunities was&nbsp;highly&nbsp;memorable, reflecting the growing visibility of fusion in Japan\u2019s innovation landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In October, we were honored to welcome Minister Ryosei Akazawa \u2014 then Minister in Charge of Economic Revitalization and head of the U.S.\u2013Japan trade delegation, and now serving as Minister of Economy,&nbsp;Trade&nbsp;and Industry \u2014 to our Tokyo head office.&nbsp;His visit, along with continued discussions with other ministries and public institutions, reflects Japan\u2019s ongoing commitment to supporting innovation and accelerating fusion energy development as a national priority.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Our People, Our Strength<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kyoto&nbsp;Fusioneering&nbsp;is now home to more than&nbsp;160&nbsp;employees worldwide.
