"This is an increase of 15 percent compared to the previous year's survey. With 68 young green tech companies in Vienna and 72 in Styria & Carinthia, these two regions are once again home to more than two thirds of all green tech start-ups," explains Bernhard Puttinger, Managing Director of Green Tech Valley. Looking at the 29 start-ups that have been founded since January 2023, Styria ranks first with around one third – overtaking Vienna for the first time.

Puttinger adds that it is probably the strong innovation ecosystems of research, education and companies that give start-ups this boost.

The cities with technical universities in Vienna , Graz and Leoben account for around 70 percent of all start-ups. More than half of these young companies focus on the fields of energy and digital solutions. Puttinger: "In recent years, Green Tech Valley has established itself as particularly fertile ground for green entrepreneurs thanks to dedicated cooperation. Recently, for example, another new ecosystem for green start- ups was launched in the industrial core zone of Upper Styria with the Green Startupmark."

According to the needs survey, networking with sparring partners from industry is at the top of the list for green startups at 77%, followed by a focus on financing.

An excerpt from the start-ups shows how innovative the approaches for a green future are: Revitalyze (Tyrol), EnerCube ( Salzburg ), 2nd Cycle FexCo (Lower Austria), Redeem & NetCero (Styria), money:care ( Vienna ), BergWindEnergy (Upper Austria) and Solution Zero (Carinthia)
