Technology that Grows With You.

At vGreens, we develop scalable, intelligent farming systems that combine AI and know-how with real-world crop performance. From digital twins and prediction models to fully automated growth cycles—our platform adapts to your farm, your needs, and your success.

Vertical Efficiency:

More produce, less space, no compromise

vGreens’ vertical farming architecture enables dense, multi-layer cultivation within compact footprints. Combined with our climate control system, it allows scalable, year-round production—anywhere in the world.

Automated Growing:

Full automation from seed to harvest

Our platform takes care of all key environmental parameters. This objectivizes farm management, reduces labor dependency, cuts costs, and enables precision farming at industrial scale.

Sustainable by Design:

Farming that respects planetary boundaries

With up to 90% less water, zero pesticide use, and location independence, our systems help cut emissions and preserve natural resources—while boosting food security in urban and rural settings alike.

AI-Powered Precision:

Smarter growing through intelligent algorithms

Our proprietary AI models monitor plant health, predict growth, and adjust environmental parameters in real-time. This ensures consistently high yields and minimizes resource use—all while learning and improving with every cycle.

    The Strawberry

    Our First Fruit, Grown to Perfection.

    Delicate, demanding, and incredibly popular—strawberries are not just our first fruit, they’re the blueprint of our entire system. At vGreens, plant needs dictate technology. That’s why we’ve engineered every layer of our solution around growing the perfect strawberry.

    With vGreens, it’s all about happy plants! The strawberry’s complexity represents the ideal testbed for scalable, intelligent cultivation. Mastering strawberries in a fully data-driven environment, we’re not just growing exceptional fruit, we’re setting the standard for what’s possible in the future of precision agriculture.


  • Up Next

    Blueberries and Raspberries

    After mastering the strawberry, we’re applying our deep tech expertise to other popular and nutrient-rich berries out there!

Reimagining Strawberries – vGreens’ Data-Driven Solution Featured in German Ag Journal

We’re excited to share that vGreens was recently featured in one of Germany’s leading agri-business journals, the “Agrarzeitung”! The article dives into how we’re rethinking strawberry farming with AI-powered vertical indoor farms that work completely independent of weather, climate, or location. At the heart of it all is our intelligent farm management system, which uses sensors and hyperspectral cameras to monitor each plant in real time—adjusting light, CO₂, nutrients, and humidity based on what every strawberry actually needs. The result? Demand-based production with consistently fresh, high-quality output.
