Future in Steel
Europe faces a monumental challenge: to be — and remain — an economic global powerhouse amid geopolitical shifts, with innovation and development capacity as vital engines. In the video podcast series Future in Steel, you’ll hear leading Dutch companies and key stakeholders share their vision in this field. Each episode features a concrete (future) application of an innovative example: the “Composite Revolution” — a TU Delft spin-off and winner of the 2025 Chamber of Commerce Innovation Award. Hear how groundbreaking science, true entrepreneurship, and an enabling government can make the difference together — and, above all, how Dutch companies can help secure a great future for Europe.

Welcome to Future in Steel — a podcast series about the Composite Revolution: an industrial transformation that makes Europe stronger. Because wherever steel joints are involved, the Composite Revolution means higher quality, up to four times longer service life, lower production costs, lower CO₂ emissions, reduced raw-material use, and more jobs in Europe instead of elsewhere in the world. In Future in Steel, you’ll hear what’s possible — from the people who truly know, working in the companies ready to make the difference. Brought together by Tree Composites, a TU Delft spin-off and winner of the 2025 Chamber of Commerce Innovation Award. In this episode: back to the beginning. What exactly is the Composite Revolution? And why does joining a tender for new offshore wind farms suddenly become attractive again under this umbrella? Hear it from Tree Composites CEO Maxim Segeren and CFO Jeroen Rondeel.
