Local Businesses Have Arrived
 

Now, it’s time to gain fresh perspectives from Vienna’s bustling innovation scene, as local founders have just joined us at the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber.
 

These are just a few of the brightest minds in attendance:
 

• Eric Weis, Founder of Circly: Eric has developed an AI-enhanced tool to optimize supply chains, revolutionizing logistics and efficiency.
   
• Gertraut Leimüller, CEO of leiwand.ai: Gertraut helps companies build trustworthy AI systems by adhering to high standards of quality, transparency, and fairness.
   
• Cornelia Habacher of Rebel Meat: Cornelia offers a natural and fully vegan alternative to meat, pushing the boundaries of sustainable food innovation.
   

Now, it is time to connect local businesses with the international BOLD minds. Together, they will dive into the first work session of the day: “Understanding the Challenge,” which focuses on grasping the critical issues that Austrian companies face.
 

Excitement is in the air! Later, we’ll explore a new generative AI system developed in Austria!
