Six finalists NN Social Innovation Startup Award 2026

From 380 applications to 6 founders heading to the stage in Amsterdam. 🙌This is the part of the year we love most: meeting the people whose work goes well beyond a slide deck.

After months of conversations, hard choices and a lot of admiration for what’s being built across Europe, here are the six founders who’ll pitch at Hello Tomorrow for a share of €200,000 in grants at the NN Social Innovation Startup Award.

🇬🇷 grandmama – eldercare made trustworthy, transparent and human. Already supporting thousands of families.

🇳🇱 ObsessLess – instant, affordable OCD support for the people stuck on Europe’s specialist waiting lists.

🇪🇸🇨🇭 eFrontiers – financial literacy that actually sticks, delivered through the banks people already use.

🇫🇮 Annie Advisor – a proactive support chatbot that prevents school dropouts before the warning signs become a crisis.

🇳🇱 Floow.ai – qualifications for care workers, earned on the job. Tackling Europe’s healthcare workforce shortage where it lives.

🇧🇪 WUK – culture made accessible to everyone who walks through the door, regardless of age, language or ability.

Six different problems. One shared belief: that good technology, built carefully, can change how people are looked after, taught and included.

Congratulations to the 6 finalists! Hello Tomorrow, here we come.
