Smart Agri Connect 2026

Expand your network. Discover innovations. Create new business opportunities.

Smart Agri Connect 2026 is the international B2B matchmaking event connecting two leading agricultural trade fairs: PotatoEurope 2026 and AgroTechniek Holland 2026.

By bringing these events together on one matchmaking platform, we create a unique meeting place where growers, suppliers, technology providers, knowledge institutions and industry professionals can easily connect across the agricultural sector. Whether your focus is farming technology, agrotechnology, smart farming or open-field innovation, this is where valuable new partnerships begin.

The matchmaking programme combines face-to-face meetings during the trade fairs with additional online meeting opportunities before and after the event. This gives you the flexibility to connect with the right people at the right time, whether you are visiting PotatoEurope, AgroTechniek Holland, or both.

PotatoEurope 2026 showcases the entire potato value chain, from breeding and cultivation to machinery, storage and processing. AgroTechniek Holland 2026 highlights the latest agricultural machinery, smart technologies, live demonstrations and practical innovations for farmers, contractors and technology providers.

Smart Agri Connect 2026 brings these complementary sectors together in one shared matchmaking environment, while maintaining the unique identity of each event. Use the platform to discover relevant business contacts, schedule 20-minute B2B meetings and explore opportunities for collaboration, trade, innovation, technology exchange and international partnerships.
