TU Delft Impact Contest

Worldwide, pomaceous (e.g. apple and pear) farmers are facing a labour shortage. They rely on seasonal workers from abroad to harvest their crops, but the availability of these workers is scarce. In addition, labour costs are rising as governments introduce stricter regulations for foreign workers. Labour shortages and rising costs are putting pressure on farmers’ production capacity. A solution is needed to ensure food security and support struggling farmers.

Topper Talent
Engineering students at TU Delft often work underpaid jobs that don’t utilize their full technical skills, while startups and small tech companies struggle to find affordable, highly skilled talent for short-term engineering tasks.

Pollinium
Pollination is responsible for one-third of the world's food supply, yet the data guiding it remains surprisingly primitive. Today, farmers and beekeepers rely almost entirely on manual observation and guesswork to understand how, where, and when pollination occurs across their land — a method that is slow, subjective, and fundamentally unscalable. This blind spot carries real consequences. Without reliable pollination data, farmers cannot optimize hive placement, identify underperforming zones, or make informed decisions that protect their yields. In fruit farming alone, poor pollination management translates directly into significant and largely preventable economic losses. At scale, the industry still operates without a practical, standardized solution for monitoring pollination in the field — leaving one of agriculture's most critical processes effectively unmeasured where it matters most.

Supply chains are under real pressure right now. Geopolitical uncertainty is making operations unstable, and costs keep rising. Every extra mile costs money. Also no vehicle route planning platform on the market can do real-time reoptimization today. That's a gap we're excited to close.

Over 50% of domestic pets suffer from obesity or chronic conditions that go undetected until they require emergency care. The "Care Gap" exists because current smart feeders are merely automated timers, they cannot track the physiological state of the pet. Owners lack a non-invasive way to monitor vital signs like respiratory rate and heart rhythm during feeding. This leads to late-stage diagnosis of metabolic and cardiac issues. We are addressing the need for a proactive health-monitoring system that integrates medical-grade physiological sensing into the daily feeding routine.

Mathematics is widely regarded as one of the most challenging subjects in high school. There are several reasons for this, ranging from a shortage of qualified teaching staff to insufficient time dedicated to mastering diffucult core concepts. It is therefore no surprise that many students struggle with mathematics. We aim to change that.

Research across Western Europe shows that healthy diets with fresh, minimally processed food are often more expensive than the typical diet based on processed products. This price difference affects lower-income households the most. At the same time, fast-food outlets are widely available in cities, while fresh and nutritious options are often harder to find and more expensive. This contributes to rising lifestyle-related diseases such as obesity and type 2 diabetes. The current food environment makes unhealthy choices the default for many consumers, particularly students and young professionals.
