invest.austria, Austria’s leading network for investors in the pre-IPO capital market, joins EIT Health Austria as a Network Partner.
invest.austria is a non-profit association that supports Austrian innovation by connecting Austrian business angels, venture capital and private equity companies. In addition, invest.austria offers its 350 members above-all visibility and networking. In order to strengthen Austria as a centre of innovation and business, invest.austria works with its members and partners to create better framework conditions for an efficient, growing and sustainable capital market. Members of the network can access various services, including investing academies, masterclasses, webinars, as well as relevant studies and handbooks.
„We share EIT Health Austria’s ambition to put local healthcare start-ups on the European map and support them in their growth,” says Daniela Haunstein, Managing Director of invest.austria. „ HealthTech and BioTech start-ups have to deal with a highly complex regulatory framework, especially if they want to operate in multiple markets. To capitalise on Austria’s innovative strength in this area, they need a strong network and committed investors who understand the subject matter in detail.”
invest.austria also hosts the annual invest.austria conference, a key event for the investment community in Austria and beyond. This conference brings together leading investors, entrepreneurs, and industry experts to explore funding opportunities and discuss the latest trends in the investment landscape. The event features panels, keynotes, workshops, and networking sessions, providing a comprehensive overview of the investment ecosystem in Austria and beyond.
“Investors are an important group in our European community that can help us scale the societal impact of our selected solutions,” says Dr. Astrid Kaltenböck, Managing Director of EIT Health Austria. “We need more Austrian investments in HealthTech and MedTech solutions to close future gaps in our healthcare system with the necessary speed. In this regard, the collaboration with invest.austria will help us unlock new opportunities for EIT Health start-ups and the innovators working on the numerous initiatives of our network.”
