GreenTech Amsterdam 2025: A Global Stage for Horticultural Innovation

From AI to adaptive greenhouses, GreenTech Amsterdam gears up to connect horticulture’s innovators, growers, and thinkers in June.
GreenTech Amsterdam 2025 returns to the RAI Convention Centre from 10–12 June with a strong international programme focused on technology, sustainability, and cross-sector dialogue.
“Horticulture today is not just about production—it’s about collaboration,” says Mariska Dreschler, Director of Horticulture at RAI Amsterdam. “Through storytelling, knowledge-sharing, and international partnerships, we want to fuel the next wave of smart, sustainable cultivation.”
This year’s event features over 80 knowledge sessions spanning AI, robotics, vertical farming, crop optimisation, and climate adaptation. Key highlights include Wednesday’s ‘Power Day’, themed Passion for Growth – Harnessing AI in Cultivation, and live programming across five dedicated stages, including the Robotics & AI Lab and the new Renewables Hub.

As an AIPH-approved international trade exhibition, the event underscores its commitment to global collaboration and best practice. GreenTech’s international reach is reflected in its country pavilions, spanning Canada, South Korea, Germany, China, and Spain, offering diverse perspectives on horticultural innovation and sustainability. “We’re seeing the growing need for regional solutions that can be shared globally,” says Dreschler.
A major talking point is the GreenTech Innovation & Concept Awards 2025, with six nominees—ranging from plant-lowering robots to advanced data platforms—selected from 47 submissions. “This year’s entries show how the industry is moving towards adaptive, autonomous systems,” says GreenTech Jury Chair Egon Janssen of TNO. “Circular materials, CO₂ reduction, and smart sensing are no longer fringe—they’re becoming standard.”
Beyond product showcases, GreenTech is also sharpening its focus on policy and regulation, with sessions exploring global food security, energy efficiency, and the role of AI in production systems. “Regulations are no longer a background issue,” says Dreschler. “They are shaping how and where we grow. That’s why we’re embedding them in the programme.”
For first-time visitors, Dreschler recommends the Innovation Zone. “It’s where the energy is—startups, awards, and the kind of conversations that drive the future.”
