You're studying at an Austrian university or college and you've got an idea for a climate protection startup? Then apply by 12 May 2024 for the Green Tech Summer! With support from professionals, you'll develop your startup concept and receive €3,500 in seed capital.
Out of uni, into a startup!
The Green Tech Summer is aimed at all students in Austria who'd rather spend their summer in an innovative ideas workshop than doing a holiday internship. Ten selected students or student teams get the chance to refine their business idea with the support of experts from the Green Tech Valley Cluster, the City of Graz, the Styrian Business Promotion Agency, Science Park Graz and the Gründungsgarage. This year, you'll also get support from the lovely Wörthersee area through the build! Gründerzentrum. The start-up centre KAIT from Kapfenberg and the ZAT from Leoben are also on board. So be prepared for a little journey through the south of Austria!
From idea to founding
Participants can look forward to numerous workshops on start-up-related topics, coaching sessions, pitch training and much more. The Green Tech Summer runs over three packed months, during which the selected ideas for climate and environmental protection are nurtured and developed into concrete business models. Twice a week, participants come together for joint and mandatory workshops with the experts. By the end of the summer, the teams are ready to launch their own startup. After the final pitch, individual participants receive €3,500 and teams receive up to €6,000 as seed capital for their Green Business.
