Who we are

Founded in 2019, Marvel Fusion is Europe’s leading fusion energy company, uniting 120 scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs across our locations in Munich and Colorado.

Backed by over €385 million in public and private funding, we’re driven by a shared mission: to deliver clean, abundant energy to the world.

Why Marvel Fusion

By joining us, you will be:

The impact you will make

Our mission is to unlock the potential of fusion power generation: abundant, clean, economic, and safe energy.

In parallel, you will build up strategic technology partnerships, take ownership in applying for and managing publicly funded projects, and take over stakeholder management. Lastly, you will support the build-up of the supply chain.
