A strong AI knowledge and innovation base is of great importance to the Netherlands. An important aspect of this is the connectedness of Dutch researchers worldwide, and especially in Europe.

When a plant begins to experience stress, we humans usually don't see it right away. And once we do see it, it may already be too late to save such a plant. Gearbox, together with Koppert Cress and Division Q, is developing an AI tool that should make it possible to detect plant stress before it becomes visible to the human eye. All to ensure a better harvest.
Since Jan. 1, 2025, Netherlands AI Coalition and AiNed have joined forces under the name AI Coalition 4 NL (AIC4NL). Go here to the website of AIC4NL. This is still under development and will be completed in the coming period
