As a participant of the 2017 Vienna Startup Package I had the pleasure to work with Petra. Not only during the negotiation and growth hacking workshops I could gain extensive knowledge suitable for my startup Cardiomo in my growth phase, but also got valuable expertise (Finance, Cooperations, Investors) and contacts on building my business in Europe. You made a difference, thank you!

Alexandra Negoescu, TU Wien Innovation Incubation Center (i²c)
Our incubatees raised their negotiation skills for B2B Sales & Partnering to the next level with the help of our negotiations expert Petra Wolkenstein. From understanding the theory and processes of negotiations to strategic moves and systematic preparations and overcoming difficult moments, our tech founders learned how to get more out of their negotiations.
Benjamin Mörzinger, CEO at Campfire Solutions
Was able to enjoy another great workshop at i2c last week. Petra Wolkenstein shared her knowledge on B2B negotiations with us.
My personal highlight was a roleplay we did. We formed teams of two-each person representing one of two parties- with the task to negotiate a deal. The scenario was about a scientist and a corporate that had to agree upon IP-rights so that they could bring a new product to the market. If successful, the deal would yield increased revenues to both, but they had different expectations towards the success chance of the project.

Der Workshop „Briefing: mehr als ein kurzes Gespräch“ war perfekt. Petra Wolkenstein präsentierte genau die richtige Mischung aus fundiertem Infotainment und Training von anwendbarem Know-how. Auch noch Monate später habe ich die Inhalte präsent und erleichtere mir und meinen KundInnen die tägliche Zusammenarbeit.

It was great having you here Petra, thank you for all the support for the founders!
Madeleine Eppensteiner, Bon Productions
Der Workshop “Marketing und Akquise für Kreativschaffende“ war sehr gelungen. Petras kompetente, zielorientierte Art, Feedback zu geben, Probleme im StartUp punktgenau und schnell zu analysieren sowie praktische Beispiele als Vergleichswerte zu bringen, verbunden mit einer interaktiven, „kreativen“ Workshopleitung machten das Event sehr spannend und auf alle Fälle empfehlenswert.

Leider ist unser Founder Lab – Creative Industries der Wirtschaftsagentur Wien jetzt offiziell zu Ende gegangen. Aber diese wertvolle Erfahrung mein eigenes Business aufzubauen mit eurer Unterstützung, so viel Wärme, Wertschätzung, inspirierendem Feedback und unbezahlbaren Impulsen ist einfach unglaublich. Es sind tolle Kooperationen, Projekte, Aufträge und Synergien entstanden. Danke liebes Team für eure berührenden Abschiedsworte an mich. Bin noch immer sehr gerührt…
