Tullnerfeld: How the Startup Village drives rural innovation!

Tulln, Österreich - The "European start-up village" in Tulln, located on the site of the former agricultural technical school, has been a place full of innovative strength since 2021. Exciting ideas and projects are created here that are supposed to revolutionize the rural region. Today, Governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner commented on the progress of the start-up village and emphasized the importance of research and innovation for regional prosperity. "We have to strengthen competitiveness, and this is not only possible in the cities, but also in rural areas," says Mikl-Leitner. This new initiative supports the growth of start-ups and provides you with the necessary resources to develop innovative technologies. This is seen as a central step in the country's vision of opening rural areas for young companies.

As part of the Tullnerfeld, 19 start-ups, including Cyan Cycle, have already found their place. The founder Anna Buchner said that the Accent Makerspace is particularly important for the development of sustainable technologies because it offers her the necessary flexibility. "We can advance our CO₂ reduction solutions here and have the best prerequisites to implement even larger projects in the future," says Buchner. Patrik Aspermaier von Nosi added that regional networking was crucial to gain talent and promote innovative strength. The location not only offers an excellent connection, but also a dynamic community that supports each other.

innovation -promoting culture

like Forbes , the promotion of an innovation-friendly culture plays a decisive role in the success of start-ups. It is important that all team members feel safe to bring in their ideas and that Egos are put back. This inclusive approach makes it possible to think innovatively and find creative solutions. In addition, it is recommended to vary regularly and combine different ideas to create fresh perspectives.

"We are convinced that strong cooperation and creative experiments are crucial for our progress," explains Jenny James, COO from FINDR, a start-up that was founded during pandemic. The exchange with customers also plays a central role in tackling their problems and developing innovative approaches. These methods help companies to develop continuously and to stay at the top of the technology. With its start-up Village, the Tullnerfeld aims to promote such an innovation culture and thus actively shape the future of rural regions.
