• Promotion of <strong>NIRMA</strong> to increase membership,<br />
vendor exhibitors, business unit participation,<br />
sponsorships, and social media presence.<br />
• Further develop relationships with commercial<br />
entities, government agencies, and industry<br />
organizations such as the NRC, DOE, NEI,<br />
ASME, CMBG, NITSL, and others.<br />
The post-Symposium survey was very positive,<br />
along with great thoughts and ideas for improvement<br />
in the next symposium. Thank you! We ALWAYS<br />
value your feedback and thoughts on what <strong>NIRMA</strong><br />
can do better to benefit its membership and to<br />
expand the <strong>NIRMA</strong> audience.<br />
The reality is that a long-standing organization<br />
such as <strong>NIRMA</strong> must continue to widen the tent of<br />
<strong>NIRMA</strong> interests, topics, and exhibitors. It benefits<br />
us all to acknowledge what is coming in the nuclear<br />
power industry and to lean in on what it means for us<br />
in the years ahead. Sometimes it is exciting and<br />
sometimes it is concerning if we are worried where we<br />
fit into the future workforce. Regardless, it is going to<br />
be quite a ride if we look at the future on a positive<br />
note and adapt to change and new technology. It<br />
might even be better. We may look back with a smile<br />
wondering how in the world did we exist with the old<br />
ways and tools that once were.<br />
Janice Hoerber and Bob Larrivee<br />
are concluding their <strong>NIRMA</strong><br />
Board of Director terms in 2023<br />
with gratitude and great regard<br />
for <strong>NIRMA</strong>'s mission. All things<br />
must come to an end, and indeed<br />
that time has come. <strong>NIRMA</strong><br />
serves the industry once again at<br />
a great time in nuclear power,<br />
just as it did in 1976. Information<br />
will become an asset much like<br />
plant assets, and that is core<br />
business for <strong>NIRMA</strong>!<br />
Enjoy the ride.<br />
