ViennaUP 2024
The Startup Festival
Meet ViennaUP
ViennaUP is a decentralized, community-driven festival, calling all innovators and visionaries to the heart of Europe. A city-wide adventure, ViennaUP was initiated by the Vienna Business Agency and returns year after year with opportunities for founders, investors, tech enthusiasts, and creatives. Diverse events are hosted by partner organisations from the local and international startup community. Participants will open their minds to new inventions, debate hot topics, network with like-minded individuals, learn new skills and meet Vienna.
Uniting trailblazers from around the world, ViennaUP has become a fixture of the international startup community, proven by last year’s resounding success. In 2023, the festival drew 14,000 visitors from 96 countries, who attended 50+ events by 35 program partners. 98% would recommend ViennaUP!
