Green IO is the conference for technology leaders who are serious about making IT sustainable — not as a PR exercise, but as an engineering and operational discipline. The 2026 Amsterdam edition arrives at a pivotal moment: generative AI is exploding energy demand across data centres, while European climate policy faces headwinds and tech giants tighten their grip on infrastructure. Green IO responds with high-quality technical sessions — latest research, real-world case studies, deep dives into responsible AI, green software engineering, carbon-aware stacks, green cloud architecture and sustainable hardware. The 150+ attendees are practitioners: engineers, architects, sustainability leads and executives genuinely trying to reconcile performance with planetary cost.

GreenTech Amsterdam is the world's #1 horticulture technology event — the place where robotics in greenhouses, precision growing, climate-control AI, vertical farming, water and energy systems, and ag-data platforms come together. Three days of exhibitions, knowledge sessions and structured matchmaking with market leaders, scale-ups and researchers from across the global horticulture-tech sector. If you work in agritech, foodtech, robotics, sensors/IoT, climatetech or data platforms applied to food production, this is a key event in the European calendar.
After more than a decade in Paris, Europe's leading deep tech summit moves to Amsterdam for the first time. Hello Tomorrow 2026 brings 3,000+ founders, investors, researchers, corporates and policymakers to NDSM Producties — Amsterdam's iconic waterfront industrial space — for two days of serious deep tech programming across 4 stages and 125 exhibitors. The summit focuses on the breakthroughs and strategic priorities that matter most to the deep tech sector right now: healthcare innovation, climate technology, advanced computing, food & agriculture systems, resilience and sovereignty. The Deep Tech Days programme (June 8–10) also runs across Amsterdam this week, offering additional side events for the global deep tech community arriving in the city. This is the flagship event for anyone investing in, building on, or partnering with Europe's most ambitious science-to-market ventures.
