Insolvency flood in Vienna: Epitome GmbH and Sveta Holding bankrupt!

The bankruptcy wave in Austria continues to increase! On Thursday, the bankruptcy proceedings were opened for Epitome GmbH, a strongly innovative company based in The Icon Turm at Vienna Central Station. According to the KSV 1870, around 86 employees are faced with loss of job, since the company, which specialized in the development of dental hygiene products, had to apply for insufficient financing options and the current geopolitical and financial challenges. The company's debt amounts to an impressive six million euros, while subordinated shareholder loans should even make up over 70 million euros. Dr. Matthias Schmidt was appointed insolvency administrator, and the creditors have time until January 28, 2025 to register their claims. There is no intention to continue the company, but an investor could possibly enable a renovation plan, reported Today.at .
