Some talk of Helion Energy, General Fusion and Tri-Alpha in there but the only mention of polywell is:

"Funded largely by the US navy, the Polywell device aims to use a series of magnetic fields to ignite fusion by accelerating positive ions and trapped electrons. Tests show some small-scale successes, but as of 2011 the technique has yet to be scaled up"

There's even (an even smaller) mention of Rossi in there at the end!
