This year, the ISPT Conference proudly collaborates with Groningen Seaports and Chemiepark Delfzijl. A strong and competitive European industry starts with the independence of critical sectors such as energy, materials and food. This conference focuses on how the Netherlands, especially Groningen, can strengthen their position in Europe through electrification.
Mark your calendar: the ISPT Conference on 8 May 2025 at the Forum in Groningen. For this edition we join forces with Groningen Seaports and Chemiepark Delfzijl. More information will be posted on this website soon.

2024: Joint ISPT & Port of Rotterdam Conference
In 2024 the ISPT Conference proudly collaborated with the Port of Rotterdam (PoR). A highly succesful co-production, as the 3 major transitions the Institute for Sustainable Process Technology (ISPT) is working on (energy, materials and agro-food) came together in the Port of Rotterdam.
Both parties saw that a lot of time, attention and money is allocated to the energy transition, but hardly any to the raw materials transition, while the need and urgency are similar. Therefore the focus for this conference, called Material Change: the Dutch opportunity to fast-track a circular Europe, was on the raw materials transition, how it’s linked to energy transition and how that offers plenty of important opportunities for fully circular Dutch industry.
2022: ISPT Conference – How to finance the transition?
During the edition of 2022 we talked money. How will we finance the transition to a fully sustainable Dutch industry by 2050? And what investments will contribute to the energy transition?
Our community of masterminds discussed on how to best allocate the money up to 2050. We also spoke about the role of human capital and how society will support the actions that need to be taken. Enjoy a full recap of the day here.
This is what people say about us
As usual, a great occasion to meet up with Dutch industry leaders at the ISPT Conference 2022. Good talks, good networking.
