18:30: Introduction and welcome

19:00: Own your toolchain
by Mario Chamuty
You run pub get a hundred times a week and never think about it. But maybe ... Maybe its worth thinking about. Not because it's broken - because it could be a little faster, a little safer, and a lot more yours. A talk about improving the parts of Flutter we stopped questioning.

19:40: 🍕 Food, Drinks and Socializing Break

20:10: Become a Full + Video Stack Dev - Writing UIs is just the start
by Simon Auer
What if you could use your existing Flutter skills to not only build UIs on screens, but to create visual stories ... and export them as real video files like MP4?
From Spotify-Wrapped like summaries, over instructional content that evolves with your codebase, to personalized videos for tens of thousands of users ... all generated programmatically.
No video editor app, no ui clicking ... just beautiful code and open source (and maybe vibe coding)! <3
Batteries included: collaboration & versioning in Git, review changes via pull requests, batch-generating variations or integrating video creation directly into pipelines and CI systems

21:00: Meeting fellow Flutternauts, last bits of food, a drink, friendly or heated discussions (about get, riverpod and bloc ;) ) in a cozy atmosphere.

21:45 - 22:00: Wrapping up, last drinks
We are looking forward to meeting you there!

🌟 Expertentalk von Jule Wilhelm (Gründerin fundraising fempire)

Wann macht Funding Sinn und wann nicht?
Bootstrapping vs. Fremdkapital

Funding gilt oft als das ultimative Ziel für Startups, dabei ist Kapital kein Erfolgssiegel, sondern ein Werkzeug. In diesem Impulsvortrag geht es darum, wann externe Finanzierung wirklich sinnvoll ist, wann Bootstrapping die stärkere Strategie sein kann und welche typischen Denkfehler Gründer:innen bei dem Thema machen.

🤝 Austausch auf Augenhöhe: In einer entspannten Atmosphäre kannst du dich mit Gleichgesinnten vernetzen, Ideen austauschen und von den Erfahrungen anderer profitieren.

🍹 Gechillte Atmosphäre: Uns ist wichtig, dass du dich wohlfühlst und Spaß hast. Wenn sich daraus ein neuer Geschäftskontakt oder eine Zusammenarbeit entwickelt – umso besser!

🚀 Unser Ziel: Wir möchten dir nicht nur die Möglichkeit bieten, neue Leute kennenzulernen und echte Verbindungen zu schaffen, sondern dir auch praktische Werkzeuge an die Hand geben, die deinen unternehmerischen Alltag erleichtern und dein Business optimieren.
Wir freuen uns darauf, dich bei unserem nächsten Treffen in Wien willkommen zu heißen. Lass uns zusammen lernen, wachsen und die Reise als Selbstständige gestalten.

Here’s what awaits you at our meet-up:

🌟 Expert Talk - Jule Wilhelm (Fundraising Fempire)

When Does Funding Make Sense, and When Doesn't It?
Bootstrapping vs. External Funding
Funding is often seen as the ultimate goal for startups, but capital isn't a guarantee of success—it's a tool. This keynote talk explores when external funding truly makes sense, when bootstrapping might be the better strategy, and what common mistakes founders make when considering this topic.

🤝 Exchange: Connect with like-minded people in a relaxed atmosphere, exchange ideas, and learn from the experiences of others.

🍹 Chilled Atmosphere: We want you to feel comfortable and enjoy yourself. If this leads to a new business connection or collaboration – even better!

Sentry is the market leader in the error monitoring space and like many startups with engineer founders, Sentry was born out of frustration with technology. David started Sentry as an open-source side project in 2008. We started in a small community — the Django web framework — and over time expanded our technology to support dozens of other platforms, including browser JavaScript and mobile applications.
Fast forward to today, we're a $90M Series E company with a $3B valuation and 200+ employees on a mission to help developers write better software faster, so we can get back to enjoying technology. As one can see, the adventure continues to be exciting as we bring our developer-first Application Monitoring to more customers and industries worldwide.
Consider us for the ride!

In Life Science & MedTech, investors evaluate startups by science, timing, team, risk, and exit potential from Pre-Seed to Series B/C.

Join us on 25 June 2026 at 5:00 PM at INiTS in Vienna for an exclusive panel discussion followed by a moderated Q&A and networking session. The event brings together leading investors from across the financing spectrum from early stage backers to later stage venture capital firms offering candid insights into how investment decisions are really made.

The discussion will focus on how expectations evolve as companies mature, what investors look for at each stage, and how founders can approach fundraising more strategically and effectively.

Investment Managers

• Guido Boehmelt from Curie.bio
• Juri Bach from High-Tech Gründerfonds
• Laura Pedroza from Abbvie Ventures
• Paul Sunzenauer from Occident

Moderation: Markus Pietzka (INiTS)

Topics we’ll explore

• How investors determine when a Life Science or MedTech idea becomes investable including early red flags “minimum traction” and how diligence evolves from Seed to Series A and beyond
• How different investor types think (angels vs seed VCs) and where value is created across the investment lifecycle
• What Series B/C investors prioritize including the balance between growth profitability and exit strategy
• How venture capital works at fund level including portfolio construction and why a small number of breakout companies drive most returns
• How macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions influence investment appetite and portfolio management in practice

Where culture meets technology and capital. Founders, artists, funders, and researchers — all in one room.

Vienna · 4–5 November 2026

Culture isn't a niche. It's an industry — built and funded across museums, startups, labs, foundations, investment funds, and creative practices. CultTech Summit puts the people running it in the same room, for two days in Vienna.

50+ speakers · 900+ participants · 30+ countries · Two days · One room.

The platform at the intersection of culture, technology, and capital. Cultural institutions, founders, artists, funders, and researchers — in the same conversation, not in separate rooms.

The 2025 edition pulled in speakers from across AI research, music business, opera, museum direction, investment, and startup-building, alongside 100+ investors and 35+ startup pitches over two days. 2026 builds on that with new formats and a sharper programme.

Pre-day workshops in Vienna's cultural venues. November 3 — field-specific workshops hosted across the city's leading museums, music venues, and creative institutions. Limited places, ticket-holders only.

CultTech Global Awards. First edition. International awards for new work in culture and tech, across four categories — cultural institutions, ecosystem builders, startups, and education / research. Finalists exhibit at the Summit. Winners announced live on stage.

A wider programme. Roundtables across the two days. An art programme on external Vienna stages. After-hours that run past the closing keynote.

Anyone building, funding, researching, or running work at the intersection of culture and technology. Founders, artists, technologists, investors, museum directors, researchers, policymakers — and the people moving between those roles.

— The best practices in culture × tech, from the people running them — Direct access to investors backing creative-industry work — A speaker list that doesn't stay in one lane — Roundtables and 1:1s, not just panels — Vienna in November — venues, dinners, museums after closing

Tickets are released in stages. The earlier you book, the less you pay. Each release is capped — once it sells out, the next opens at a higher price.

→ Grab yours below before First Release closes.
