The Plant Empowerment Summer School 2026 in Amsterdam connected international growers through practical training, company visits and in-depth discussions on greenhouse cultivation.

The future of tomato production demands a new generation of crop managers. Professionals who not only understand climate, irrigation and plant health, but also know how to use data and plant physiology to make better growing decisions. To support this development, Plant Empowerment and HAS green academy are launching a new Dutch-language Tomato Crop Manager Training Programme, starting in October 2026.

Plant Empowerment is heading back to Australia. On May 7, a full-day training session will take place in the Melbourne region, bringing together growers and industry professionals to dive into the principles of data-driven growing.

From June 8–11, 2026, Plant Empowerment will host its exclusive Plant Empowerment Summer School, bringing together a select group of international growers for an intensive week of live learning, dialogue and practical application. The program takes place during GreenTech Amsterdam and is designed for growers who want to deepen their understanding of plant-driven growing.
