This may already have been covered here, so if you could, please point me to the right thread if true. In case it hasn’t; what other countries, corporations, organizations, etc. are working on the Polywell fusion concept? Are there any? How far along are they? I don’t mean just basic research, but teams specifically working toward net fusion power. I thought I saw something recently about, perhaps, the UK working this. I can’t find the darn link anymore.
I, too, am curious.....

No one else is working specifically on Polywell.
Lots of action in IEC (fusors etc.) - U Wisconsin- Madison, U Illinois Champaign, Japan, Australia.
The closest is Monkton's device backed by Paul Allen.

The IC and tokamak folks are also working on net power.
