The large ViennaUP conference dedicated to the theme of startups is approaching again. Having achieved great success in previous years and gathering more than 10,000 participants from 67 countries, this conference has become one of the most important European events in this field.

But ViennaUP is much more than an ordinary conference. It is a series of events that will take place from May 30 to June 7, organized by more than 30 partners, while the conference itself was initiated by the Vienna Business Agency. The rich program this year offers a wide range of topics – from smart cities, creative industries, and technology to biomedical sciences and manufacturing.

It will be held at various locations throughout Vienna, and this year it will attract numerous Austrian and international startups, investors, new talents, and technology enthusiasts. Participants will have the opportunity to gain new contacts and knowledge, exchange experiences, and expand their network. They will also be able to get better acquainted with the Vienna startup ecosystem, one of the most diverse and fastest-growing startup communities in Central Europe.

The conference program includes about 50 events – from lectures and workshops to hackathons, individual meetings, and networking opportunities. Among them is the Connect Day event taking place on May 31. Its goal is to connect startups with renowned companies and investors and offer them the opportunity to present themselves to an audience interested in innovations.

At the center of the Smart City SuMMit event on June 6 are smart cities, and this year’s theme is dedicated to the question of how to make cities climate neutral. Creative Days will gather creative minds from around the world on May 31, focusing on the impact of technology on culture in the future.

Participants of the ViennaUP conference will be able to create new contacts and exchange ideas in a pleasant atmosphere at Vienna’s Karlsplatz, where the main meeting place will be located, as well as in certain Viennese cafes.
