Apparatuses, systems and methods associated with a flexible thermally conductive shunt are disclosed herein. The flexible thermally conductive shunt may include a thermally conductive element, the thermally conductive element being flexible. The flexible thermally conductive shunt may further include a thermally conductive member thermally coupled to the thermally conductive element. The thermally conductive member may include a shell and a cavity. The shell may be sealed to the thermally conductive element, wherein the thermally conductive element extends through a discontinuity of the shell. The cavity may be formed at a center of the thermally conductive member and enclosed by the shell, wherein a first portion of the thermally conductive element extends within the cavity and a second portion of the thermally conductive element extends out of the thermally conductive member via the discontinuity of the shell. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
