☕️ Some blends do more than warm your hands..

Coffee is for us more than a drink.

It’s a ritual. A rhythm. A space where legacy meets invention.

From café corners to innovation hubs, this is where ideas linger, collide and take shape.

It is inspiring artists, founders and thinkers to create what didn’t exist before.

A region where tradition brews boldness.

And a simple cup can ignite a world-changing environment.

Three days, one clear message: we can make renovation efficient, affordable and climate-friendly – if we work together. 🌍🏗️

At the RENOWAVE.AT Impact Days, Austria’s central event for climate-neutral renovation, experts from research, business, politics and practice came together for:

🎤 inspiring keynotes and panel discussions

💡 very concrete, hands-on solutions from the field

🤝 workshops, project sessions and lots of hallway conversations

You could feel how much momentum there already is: From serial renovation and circular construction to digital tools, new business models and funding instruments that can really move the needle.

A huge thank you to all speakers for their insights, to all participants for the open exchange and to all supporters and co-organisers who make the Impact Days possible year after year.

📸 Connections in motion.

These moments capture what made the LAUNCH event - INVEST in Lower Austria so special:
Not just presentations, but people coming together to share knowledge, ideas, and opportunities.

From insights to introductions, the day built bridges between Austria and the CEE region and made the momentum already growing.

Thanks to all partners, speakers and participants:

ecoplus. Niederösterreichs Wirtschaftsagentur GmbH, ABA - INVEST in AUSTRIA , Accent accelerating ideas , and ARTUS Steuerberatung & Wirtschaftsprüfung covered funding, location, incorporation, taxes and compliance with end-to-end and hands-on support.

Delegations and partners from across Eastern Europe (incl. Slovenská aliancia pre inovatívnu ekonomiku - SAPIE, Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies - wiiw , WELL PACK , AXIÁL Kft. ) turned panels into practical roadmaps, not just slide decks.

An event where innovation was presented through tours at TFZ Wr. Neustadt and MedAustron which made the innovative power of the region tangible – from cutting-edge research to real-world application.

Vienna Region is a joint initiative of ecoplus, Business Agency Vienna, and Business Agency Burgenland, representing the combined strengths of three business agencies as one united business region. 🌍
workshop into a launch platform. 👏

The day clearly showed how networking and collaboration drive real growth connecting entrepreneurs, innovation hubs, and ecosystem partners across borders.

🎬 Interview with Anodu and Alexander Körner

Growth can feel simple — until your suppliers could deliver more, but your bank lines say “no”.
That’s exactly the wall anodu is breaking through. 🚀

anodu is an Austrian platform for purchase financing that expands companies’ buying power on top of existing bank lines — financed by private investors and independent from banks.

What this unlocks for companies:
✅ more purchasing volume without renegotiating credit
✅ stronger supplier relationships through earlier payments
✅ healthier cash flow, with repayments aligned to when goods are already sold

And for investors?

anodu turns Austrian SME growth into a tangible, real-economy asset class:
✅ diversification
✅ short maturities & flexible access to unused funds
✅ direct impact where it matters most

🏆 Winning the Innovationspreis Burgenland 2024 (“Innovative Services”) says it all:
smart, alternative financing is becoming a key growth engine for SMEs.

🧠 Would you consider alternative purchase financing to scale faster, or do you prefer sticking with classic bank solutions?

🎬 Interview balmung with Armin Dax Sinkovits

In our interview, Armin Dax-Sinkovits explains how his startup balmung helps Austrian companies to feel stuck in bureaucracy and tool chaos.

💻 balmung is a browser-based all-in-one business web app that brings together tasks, purchasing & inventory, CRM, accounting, POS, time tracking and more in a single interface – developed specifically for Austrian companies. Instead of juggling 10+ tools, one platform and an integrated AI engine can automate a large part of routine work and free up time for customers, team and growth.

With more than 100 companies already on board and an Innovationspreis Burgenland under its belt, balmung shows how smart automation and a clear UX can make everyday business noticeably lighter.

🎤 Interview Spot:
StartUp Burgenland Lounge 2025 at the iconic FILMQUARTIER WIEN!

🤝 A question to all partners & supporters:
What is the one back-office task in your business you would most like to hand over to AI tomorrow – and why?

🎬 Interview with BeanSaver with Mag. (FH) Vera Amtmann, MA

Most of us don’t think twice about it:
we drink our coffee – and the grounds go straight into the bin.

BeanSaver is rewriting that story.

In our interview, Vera Amtmann explains how the Austrian startup turns used coffee grounds and silver skins into tangible circular products – starting with a natural all-season fertilizer made from:

☕ 60% recycled coffee grounds
🐑 20% local sheep wool
🪵 20% wood from Austrian forests

With more than 66,000 tons of coffee beans consumed in Austria every year, about 99% of that ends as waste.

BeanSaver’s mission:

☕ you enjoy your coffee
♻️ they collect the coffee grounds
🌱 and transform them into high-quality fertilizer – with further products like heating pellets, animal bedding and bio-based materials already in the pipeline.

It’s circular economy you can literally hold in your hands – and spread in your garden.

🤝 A question to all partners & supporters:
Can you imagine your favourite café or office joining a “coffee-to-soil” initiative like BeanSaver?

🏗️ Becoming a Baumeister or construction expert in Austria usually means:
thick folders, long evening classes and little flexibility.

💻 PAK Immobilien Bildungs GmbH (PAK Immo) turns that upside down.

PAK Immo offers digital, flexible preparation courses for the Baumeister qualification exam and other key licenses in the construction and real estate sector – from local construction supervision (ÖBA) to civil engineer and labour leasing preparation.

Their online model is built for working professionals in construction:

✅ 100% online access to course content – anytime, anywhere

✅ modular structure covering up to ~95% of exam-relevant material for Austria

✅ video lessons, interactive questions, live webinars and personal support from experienced Baumeister trainers

Recognised by the Wirtschaftsagentur Burgenland for its digital training concepts, PAK Immo shows how upskilling in the construction industry can be both high quality and truly flexible.

🤝 A question to all partners & supporters:
Would you prefer a flexible online course model like PAK Immo’s over traditional evening classes – why or why not?
