GreenTech Amsterdam is pleased to announce that 9 of the 37 submissions have been nominated across three categories: Innovation, Concept, and new this year, Impact, for the GreenTech Innovation Awards 2026. According to the jury, the focus is shifting from data collection to actionable insights. Innovations increasingly translate data into real-time decision support, with AI playing a key role. However, the potential of well-structured data remains underused. Greater integration between systems is needed to move beyond siloed innovation and unlock real impact, the jury says. The winner per category will be announced during the opening of the show on the first day. GreenTech Amsterdam will take place from 9 – 11 June at RAI Amsterdam.
Egon Janssen (chairman jury) explains why the jury selected the nominations below: "This year's nominations clearly show a shift from data collection towards actionable insight. AI is becoming essential in transforming raw data into meaningful decisions. At the same time, the power of semantic data and system integration is still underutilized—unlocking this could significantly accelerate the move towards smarter, more connected greenhouse systems."
Why a new 'Impact' category?
The purpose of this new category is to recognise organisations that have achieved significant real-world impact with an existing product, with at least two years of market presence and proven high impact on sustainability and revenue growth.
