Today we have new episode in the mini-series - In Conversation With…- where our Research and Technical Capabilities Director, Cristina Garcia-Duffy, interviews the former Managing Director of Marine at The Crown Estate, Huub den Rooijen.

Huub has over 30 years of experience in the energy sector, from oil and gas to offshore wind, and has led The Crown Estate’s work as manager of the seabed, striving to unlock the potential of these unique assets for the benefit of the nation.

In October this year, 2022, he stepped down after ten years to become an advisor, and in today’s discussion, we’ll dive into more detail of Huub’s career and stand out moments as well as explore the role of research in the development of a sustainable, yet profitable, offshore wind sector.
