SHIFT Cup 2026 was a success

SHIFT Cup 2026 was a success

Portfolio companies, alumni and the SHIFT team spent the afternoon on the pitch instead of in meeting rooms. The event has become a tradition and was a big success again: The weather was great again and we enjoyed a late summer day with intense matches, new connections, pizza, drinks and beats.

ChainCraft, who not only had their own jerseys but also a dedicated coach was the clear winner of this year’s tournament. They beat OMRT in a great finale 🏆 and won the SHIFT Cup incl. plant 🪴

Maxem Energy Solutions, who won last year, went out against Chaincraft and left no doubt they want the cup back in 2027 💪

CEYAS.Tech and Friday Energy joined forces as Team “Y” 🤝

OneThird and foodforecast played as a combined “Food team”, with Foodforecast down to a single representative this year. They are building out their Dutch team, so we are counting on a full squad next time 😉

And also several of our former colleagues joined the matches and the borrel. We look forward to next year’s edition!
