The first edition of Tech for Industry Show, held on June 23 and 24, 2026, at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, showcased the technologies shaping the industry of tomorrow. Beyond the conferences and business meetings, the show also honored two companies whose innovations address the major challenges of industrial transformation.
The Innovation Award goes to Azumuta
Created to recognize the most innovative Industry 4.0 solutions, the Tech for Industry Innovation Award went to Azumuta for its Azumuta Labs initiative, a platform that explores uses of artificial intelligence and machine vision directly on the shop floor.
Up against well-known finalists such as Siemens, Sensolus, Geminus and No Chain Technologies, Azumuta won over the jury with its pragmatic approach: quickly testing new technologies in real industrial environments to improve operator performance, quality and shop-floor digitalization.
Astriis wins the Startup Award
The Startup Award, for its part, went to Astriis, a young French company specializing in predictive maintenance.
Its solution relies on advanced vibration analysis to detect faults in rotating machinery at an early stage. This technology helps manufacturers anticipate breakdowns, reduce production stoppages and optimize their maintenance operations.
On top of this recognition, Astriis receives a full refund of its booth cost, a real boost for its commercial development.
Awards that celebrate industrial innovation
These two awards perfectly illustrate the ambition of Tech for Industry Show: to shine a light on the companies that are concretely transforming industry through new technologies.
The Innovation Award recognizes solutions already capable of delivering measurable impact for manufacturers, while the Startup Award highlights the most promising young companies in the industrial ecosystem.
Beyond the trophy, these awards offer valuable visibility with the decision-makers, integrators, manufacturers and partners attending the show.
A promising first edition
For its launch, Tech for Industry Show brought together nearly 3,900 visitors, 97 exhibitors, more than 140 speakers and some sixty conferences on artificial intelligence, robotics, cybersecurity, data, supply chain and sustainable industry. This first edition confirms manufacturers' growing interest in the technologies that accelerate their digital transformation.
