The Fresco Connected Kitchen at IFA 2025.

IFA continues to be one of the world’s most important stages for innovation in home and kitchen technology, bringing together global brands, partners, and pioneers shaping the future of connected living.

At IFA 2025, Fresco returned to Berlin to showcase what that future looks like in practice, fully connected, brand-agnostic, and built around better cooking experiences.

The Connected Kitchen in Action

At the heart of our booth was a fully operational smart kitchen, where visitors experienced real cooking, not just concepts.

Through live demos, we brought together connected appliances from Instant Pot, Kenwood, and Viking, all powered by Fresco’s KitchenOS platform. Attendees could see firsthand how recipes, appliances, and software work seamlessly together, from guided cooking and multi-appliance coordination to real-time feedback and control.

This cross-brand interoperability is what sets Fresco apart: one platform, multiple appliances, one seamless cooking experience.

Announcing New OEM Partnerships with E.G.O. and Arda

IFA 2025 also marked an important milestone for Fresco as we announced new partnerships live at the show with E.G.O. and Arda.

These collaborations represent a continued step forward in expanding the smart kitchen ecosystem, bringing more appliance categories, manufacturers, and capabilities into a unified platform.

Together, we’re accelerating the development of scalable, software-driven cooking experiences that work across brands and geographies.

Bringing the Industry Together

Beyond the booth, IFA is about connection, and this year, we were proud to co-host a special Cocktail Hour alongside Michael Wolf and The Spoon.

The event brought together leaders, innovators, and partners from across the smart kitchen space for an evening of conversation, collaboration, and shared ambition. It was a chance to step back from the show floor, exchange ideas, and strengthen the relationships driving the industry forward.

Looking Ahead

From live cooking demos to major partnership announcements, IFA 2025 was a powerful moment for Fresco and for the evolution of the smart kitchen as a whole.

As the ecosystem grows, we stay focused on helping appliance brands deliver seamless, engaging, and scalable cooking experiences that resonate with today’s home cook.
