Startup-Days

Sublable Startup-Days

Our Startup-Days have become an indispensable part of Grüne Woche and are taking place for the eighth time this year. Young, dynamic start-ups from the agtech and food sectors will present their innovative business ideas in exciting 3-minute pitches. The program is rounded off by forward-looking talks that offer valuable insights into the latest developments and trends in the industry.

The Startup-Days offer visitors a unique opportunity to go on a voyage of discovery and discover exciting new products that may not yet be available to buy.

For young companies, participation in the Startup-Days is a unique opportunity to exchange ideas with players from the retail sector, politics and also the end consumer, to expand their network and to use the reach and visibility of Grüne Woche for their own business idea.

Application starts in fall

Are you part of a young or already established startup in the Agtech or Food sector? Then Grüne Woche 2026 could be the perfect stage for you!

We’re looking for innovative companies with scalable, market-ready products – or fresh ideas that contribute to one or more of the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals.

The Startup Days offer a unique opportunity to pitch your project to a high-profile jury and connect with key industry players.
