Crossborder Startup Point Day in Hagenbergu

A Successful Start for the Crossborder Startup Point Project: First Networking Event Completed!

On November 7, 2024, the inaugural event of the Crossborder Startup Point project took place at the Startup Point in Hagenberg, laying the groundwork for strengthening cross-border cooperation between startups, coworking centers, and other supporting organizations from the Czech Republic and Austria.

The program included an inspiring panel discussion featuring six experts from different sectors of the entrepreneurial ecosystem, short presentations from startups seeking targeted support for their businesses, and thematic breakout sessions where participants shared their experiences and explored ways to address the specific needs of the presented startups.

Key topics included:

  • The role of coworking centers in the startup ecosystem
  • The most effective forms of startup support and motivation
  • Transferring successful cooperation models across borders
  • Involving rural areas in innovation networks

The Crossborder Startup Point project continues with a series of further activities, including mentoring and networking events. In the final phase, 20 selected startups will join a pilot program providing them with individualized support and access to key experts.

We thank all participants and partners for their active involvement and look forward to continued cooperation!
