Fusion is entering a pivotal moment. General Fusion plans to become the first publicly traded pure‑play fusion company by merging with Spring Valley III, positioning the company for a Nasdaq listing upon the transaction closing, which is expected in mid-2026. General Fusion CEO Greg Twinney shares lessons on two decades of raising capital and the company’s path toward public‑market readiness. We’ll also explore what this transition means for retail investors.
