Hello Tomorrow, a deep tech innovation platform that addresses the most pressing global challenges, announced that its annual Global Summit will take place in Amsterdam in 2026.
Rinke Zonneveld, CEO of Invest-NL says, “With this collaboration, the Netherlands is taking another important step in strengthening its position as a leader in technological innovation and entrepreneurship. The Hello Tomorrow Global Summit will act as a catalyst for groundbreaking innovations, stimulate the growth of startups, and boost investments in the European technology sector.”
Since its founding in 2011, Hello Tomorrow has connected advanced technologies with entrepreneurship and investment, helping to transition breakthrough technologies from the lab to the market.
Each year, the Global Summit brings together startups, investors, industry experts, and researchers to discuss deep tech innovation.
A group of private and public partners has recently come together to support Hello Tomorrow’s goals in Europe.
Key Dutch organisations like ASML, Damen, the Ministry of Economic Affairs, and Invest-NL are helping to make the Netherlands an important center for science and technology and a leader in innovation in Europe.
Hello Tomorrow: Building a collaborative ecosystem
Founded in 2011, Hello Tomorrow was founded by individuals who believed in the importance of science and technology for solving industry challenges and global issues.
Recognising the limitations of traditional technology transfer, they created a global ecosystem to promote ‘deep tech’ innovation.
Their Global Startup Challenge has received 30,000 applications from 132 countries and collaborates with universities to identify impactful solutions.
Hello Tomorrow tracks deep tech trends and connects key players through international events. They also offer consulting services and customised startup programs to help companies navigate the effects of deep tech and remain competitive.
“We are excited to bring the Hello Tomorrow Summit to Amsterdam, a city renowned for its diversity and vibrant entrepreneurial spirit,” says Arnaud de la Tour, CEO and co-founder of Hello Tomorrow.
“More than just a new location, this move marks the beginning of a powerful partnership with some of Europe’s most forward-thinking and innovative companies, investors, and institutions. Together, we will continue to develop Hello Tomorrow as the leading global platform for deep tech, connecting the European ecosystem to the rest of the world,” says de la Tour.
