Social Impact Award Österreich

Our world is changing. People everywhere have started to get involved in this change.

Now, more than ever before, numerous non-profits and social enterprises are being founded. They address prevailing social problems with new, innovative projects. More and more young people are choosing this path of social change, often alongside their studies.

The Social Impact Award Austria supports these projects. We invite young people and students to develop their own project ideas that solve social problems entrepreneurially and creatively.

The award was founded in 2009 by the Institute for Entrepreneurship and Innovation at WU Vienna and was offered in 16 countries in 2019. We offer our participants professional know-how, the space for the exchange of ideas, feedback and financing, which support young entrepreneurs in the first steps of their social or ecological projects.

By participating in Social Impact Award you can develop and submit your own project idea to solve a social challenge. We look forward to your participation and hope to get to know you soon!
