Construction Startup Competition 2026 Opens Applications for Global ConTech Innovators
Applications are now open for the Construction Startup Competition 2026, one of the leading international initiatives focused on innovation in construction, infrastructure, and sustainable urban development.
The competition brings together startups, investors, and major industry organisations working on technologies shaping the future of the built environment.
This year’s edition is supported by global industry leaders including Cemex Ventures, Caterpillar, Ferrovial, Hilti Venture, VINCI Group’s Leonard, NOVA by Saint-Gobain, and Trimble.
The initiative focuses on several strategic innovation areas:
• construction technology
• smart infrastructure
• sustainable urban development
• robotics and automation
• digital construction systems
• climate technologies for the built environment
For startups, the competition provides opportunities to gain visibility, connect with investors and industry partners, and accelerate technology adoption within the construction sector.
As digital transformation increasingly reshapes infrastructure and urban development, innovation ecosystems connecting startups, industry, and investors are becoming more important across Europe and globally.
For DINT Foundation and EDIH DIGIHUB, initiatives supporting emerging technologies and innovation-driven industries remain closely connected to broader digital transformation and innovation goals.
