Startup Academy Programme for scaling startups at Vienna Business Agency
We have supported the Vienna Startup Package since 2016, from the launch of the programme to updates. Up to 20 startups come all the way to Vienna each year or join us online for coaching and a business workshop series, helping them to launch on the German-speaking market. We are delighted to score an average of 1.2 on a scale from 1-5 for our services and programme.
Supporting the spin-off programme for AIT scientists
We have been working with the Austrian Institute of Technology since 2020. Supporting a select team of scientists who have taken the leap from innovation to transfer, we help market their transition into a spin-off. We provide training, assessments and coaching to help clients achieve the next stage in their startup or get their business off the ground.
Programme support and digital accelerator platform for Startup Wise Guys
We have been training startup clients from the accelerator Startup Wise Guys since 2016. We provide a digital platform which allows for the accelerator programme to be delivered online.
Compensation architecture and performance management via OKRs
We decided that OKR (Objectives & Key Results), a recent & more flexible approach to performance management, was fit for Njuškalo’s current set-up. It was also the best way to actively involve the entire organization in an ongoing dialogue over performance, over the things that really make a difference for the company, its employees and its customers.
