In 2016, FTS arrived at GreenTech Amsterdam with one simple mission: unite the stakeholders of Controlled Environment Agriculture and prove that collaboration beats competition. 🌱 Fast-forward to 2025 and what began as a handful of visionaries has evolved into an international network spanning 30+ countries, and thousands of innovators – all linked by a shared belief that technology, sustainability, and community can (and must) coexist in modern food production. 🤝
What makes the FarmTech Society network special?
1️⃣ Constant Year-Round Connectivity – Every GreenTech since 2016 has become our annual “community reunion,” where friends, partners reconnect and new relationships ignite.
2️⃣ Cross-Sector DNA – Grower organizations, energy experts, data scientists, equipment manufacturers, investors, policymakers… if it touches CEA, you’ll find it here.
3️⃣ Action Over Talk – From the RE-Greenhouse energy-transition consortium to PonicsVET+ training programs and our push for harmonized CEA standards, we turn hallway conversations into real-world impact.
4️⃣ Egoless Collaboration – Whether you run a multinational, SME or a start-up, everyone checks their ego at the door; solutions scale faster when knowledge is shared
