Without the Tourism Incubator, we would not be where we are today. We have completed major projects with strong partners such as the European Capital of Culture Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024, the Mozarteum Salzburg and the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra and won international competitions. Thanks to the expertise of Upper Austria Tourism, Business Upper Austria, tech2b and two mentors, we have really arrived on the market.
Thanks to the strong support of the Tourism Incubator's team of advisors, I was able to implement my business idea on the market more quickly. In particular, the mentors' critical view of my business model was crucial to my success. The Tourism Incubator program is an extremely valuable network of start-ups, mentors and institutions that I was able to actively use and that opened important doors for me.
Together with the tourism incubator and the supporting experts, we were able to develop a completely new concept for expanding the product range and marketing our village shop box. We were also able to draw on a great network at tech2b, which opened more doors for us.
