As part of a call for bids, incubators are selected who act as innovation intermediaries with a focus on RTI-based start-ups (RTI = research, technology and innovation) with high growth potential in academia.  They push potential founders and accompany the start-up processes by offering qualifications and specific support.

With aws Business Angel Fund, we help start-ups to take off by doubling the equity holdings of business angels through co-investments.

With aws Jump Start we promote incubators, accelerators and incubated start-ups so that they can establish innovative and technology-focused companies or business ideas faster on the market and minimize risks.

With the aws Venture Capital Initiative we want to stimulate the financing of research- and technology-oriented start-ups and win international venture capital funds for an increased engagement in Austria.
