Raiffeisen-Landesbank Steiermark
For two years, we supported Raiffeisen-Landesbank Steiermark on its innovation journey with our Accelerator format in our TECHHOUSE location in Graz. Start-ups from a wide range of sectors were brought together and were able to benefit from our programme and our network of experts and corporates.
„The TECHHOUSE Accelerator was a great opportunity to get to know the Austrian innovation ecosystem and Graz in particular. We were introduced to several potential customers and it marks our beginning of a long and successful expansion to Austria.“

The Program
The TECHHOUSE ELEVATOR is divided into a Core Development (3 months) and a Residency Phase (2 months) and covers a total duration of 5 months. The Core Development Phase is the core of the program and consists of workshop formats and individual coaching. In the Residency Phase, we aim for a fade-out of the intensive consulting phase. Startups benefit in the long term from participation in the Accelerator through our alumni and company network.
