An expert jury of the GreenTech Innovation Awards selected 22 nominees from all entries in four categories. “The jury was impressed by the quality of the innovations entered for the 2018 GreenTech Innovation Awards. The entries were even better than in 2016 and that says enough about how innovative the international horticulture sector is”, according to jury chairman JanWillem Breukink.
