Euroseeds is proud to unveil the 10 selected companies presenting as finalists of the Euroseeds2026 InnovAction Stage, taking place during the Euroseeds2026 Congress in Valencia, Spain.
Under this year’s theme, “From Kernel to Code: Innovations in seed treatment, packaging, labelling & traceability,” the InnovAction Stage will showcase forward-looking solutions that support a more efficient, sustainable and competitive seed sector. This year’s finalists bring innovations focused particularly on seed treatment, seed enhancement, biological solutions, crop establishment and resilience.
Chosen by an independent jury, these companies represent the diversity and dynamism of agricultural innovation today, from biological seed treatments and microbial technologies to cold plasma, biochar-based coatings, precision biostimulants and solutions that help crops better cope with drought, salinity and other stresses.
Meet the 2026 finalists:
- Agrobiomics – Developing precision, single-molecule biostimulants, including Pterica®, to help crops cope with abiotic stress and improve early establishment through predictable, low-dose biological activity.
- BioConsortia – Developer of Always N™, a microbial seed treatment that uses naturally occurring nitrogen-fixing bacteria to support crop productivity and nutrient efficiency.
- Ensemo – Developing SeedJection™, a patented platform that injects beneficial microorganisms directly into seeds, beginning with rhizobia injection in soybean seed and with further applications under development
- Insignes Labs – Advancing PURE TECHNOLOGY®, a mineral biostimulant platform designed to stimulate crop development, activate plant defence responses and reduce reliance on synthetic inputs.
- Lantmännen BioAgri – Offering ThermoSeed, a chemical-free seed treatment process using controlled steam to eliminate seed-borne pathogens while preserving seed germination and vigour.
- Pewas – Developing Aquaholder, an innovative seed-applied soil conditioner developed to help crops withstand abiotic stress caused mostly by climate change.
- SaliCrop – Offering a non-GMO, seed-stage priming technology that prepares crops to better withstand abiotic stresses such as salinity, heat and drought while integrating into existing agricultural workflows and sustainable farming standards.
- SeedForward – Advancing GRASSGUARD®, a tailored seed coating for grass and pasture crops that supports germination, early vigour, root development and resilience under challenging conditions.
- Seedrise – Developing a patented biochar-based seed coating platform designed to improve early growing conditions for young plants while supporting more sustainable agricultural systems.
- Zayndu – Applying cold plasma technology through its ActivatedAir system to prime seeds, improve germination and support higher crop performance without agrochemicals.
These 10 companies will present their innovations live on the Euroseeds2026 InnovAction Stage on 26-27 October during the Euroseeds2026 Congress, where they will pitch their solutions to seed sector leaders, investors, and technology experts.
