🌟 Connecting Brno's innovation ecosystem to #ViennaUP 2024! 🚀 Sometimes, ideas need time to mature. Back in 2020, I remember as it was today, we had a discussion with collegues at Vienna Business Agency and came to an idea of sending a train from #Brno to #Vienna, packed with startups, scale-ups, investors, and representatives of Brno tech-corporations, to the newly established #ViennaUP festival. Then Covid-19 came. But perseverance pays off! Last year, we finalized an agreement with Vienna Business Agency, Gabriele Tatzberger, Gerhard Hirczi, Dudu Gencel, Tsvetoslava Kapatsinova & Zuzana Bedřichová , and in 2024 we are finally bringing this idea to life. 📣🌐💰Our message to Vienna is clear: "Connect with Brno, with its startups, investors, and tech-corporations . Brno is your partner in busines-innovation. Explore the diverse array of businesses, entrepreneurs and minds from Brno. Innovation ecosystem of tech city of Brno is your natural business partner; close, innovative, educated, and entrepreneurial." And what does JIC - business with a purpose prepaded specifically for ViennaUP? 📌#StartUPTrain to ViennaUP: Embark on an exhilarating journey! On 📅 June 3rd, in the morning, join us on a special train from Brno to the largest startup festival in our part of the world. Our specially designed train will host startups, investors, and other representatives of the innovation ecosystem. Along the way, expect plenty of networking opportunities, insightful programs, and refreshments to get you geared up for this Austrian startup pinnacle of the season! See more details at https://lnkd.in/eZtEamu2. 📌#CircleOfExperience - Expansion to the #USmarket with Sandra Kumorowski and Jenda Perla: Connect with founders and marketing visionaries with global ambitions. Together with leading experts from Brno and Vienna, explore various strategies for international expansion, broaden your horizons, and gain new contacts at a unique knowledge-sharing event. See details at: https://lnkd.in/ejqGmSf6 . 📌 #ConnectDay24: As a partner, we're designing a dedicated space showcasing Brno's innovation ecosystem and taking with 20 representatives of startups, investors, and tech corporations from Brno, along with our colleagues from JIC. And CTA is: Secure your pitch spot at #ConnectDay24 - registration is open until April 17th as the largest event of ViennaUP2024 has already opened the call for the Investors Pitch.
