Following the approval by our Assembly General at the Congress in Denmark, Euroseeds is delighted to welcome three prominent innovation companies as new associate members: J.R. Simplot Company, Pairwise, and Hudson River Biotechnology.

J.R. Simplot Company, based in Idaho, combines nearly a century of expertise in agriculture with advanced gene-editing and biotechnology, particularly for potatoes and strawberries. Their innovations reduce food waste, enhance yield, and increase resilience to climate change—goals closely aligned with Euroseeds’ mission.

North Carolina-based Pairwise, recognized as a leader in GreenTech, brings a pioneering approach to crop development with their proprietary CRISPR platform, enabling new, high-quality crop varieties that enhance sustainability in food production.

Hudson River Biotechnology, from Wageningen in the Netherlands, specializes in precision plant breeding and trait development, leveraging cutting-edge molecular breeding technologies to accelerate crop improvement.

These new members bring fresh perspectives to Euroseeds, strengthening our commitment to advancing innovation across the European seed sector. We are looking forward to actively work together for reaching our shared goals!
