Navigating corporates into the future.

For Corporates

Austria is a country of hidden champions – world-class companies built in a market of nine million. That economy is worth being proud of. It is not worth betting on. weXelerate exists so that Austria is still a worthy competitor in the world economy twenty years from now – and the topics we work on with our corporates are the ones no company can afford to sit out.

Why we exist

Austria earned its place. Keeping it is the work.

Other countries would love to have the economy Austria built. But the world is compounding – AI, quantum, new ways of building software – and nobody keeps a title by defending it. We can no longer sit back and watch the world pass us by with its innovations and economic power.

We also know what your teams are looking for. After years of transformation programs, the bar for innovation has never been higher – and another innovation theater is the last thing anyone needs. So we don’t run one. Every format here ends with something you can use: a working solution, a partner, a decision.

How we work
Long termRelationships, not transactions. Membership is built on years – trust compounds, and so does what you get out of it.
Corporate focusOne touchpoint into the whole ecosystem. Corporates, startups, investors and universities under one roof – and formats built around how corporates actually work.
Solution basedHands-on, outcome-first. We skip the abstract “human-centric ethical AI” panel discussions and go straight to working solutions on real company problems.
The Formats

What you actually do here.

The place to be for the topics every corporate needs to jump on – AI, Quantum, Innovation. Click a format to see how it works.
01 Corporate Programme FormatsAI · Quantum · Innovation – the working core of the year 10+ / year

More than ten programme formats a year across the topics that will decide who is still competitive in twenty years. Each one is built for corporate reality: peers from different industries, the same challenge, and an outcome you can take back into your organisation.

Innovation Insights

Curated deep-dives into the technologies moving your industry – what is real, what is noise, and what it means for your roadmap.

Cross Corporate Circle

Peer exchange between the innovation leads of member corporates. Same challenges, different industries – the shortcut everyone underestimates.

02 AI Solution DaysOne day, real company challenges, working AI solutions 4× / year

Four times a year, corporates bring a real challenge and leave with working AI solutions – built on the day, on your problem, not a slide about someone else’s. As a member you are in the room; as a partner you bring the topic your company is wrestling with.

03 Fellows ClubInvite-only C-level dinner – the room where it happens 2× / year · invite only

Coming Up

Where the next formats are forming.

Three verticals are in the ideation phase right now. Partners who join at this stage help define what the format becomes.

Fintech

Ideation phase

Banking, insurance and payments – where Austria’s financial players meet the startups rebuilding their stack.

Shape it from the ideation phase →

Energy

Ideation phase

Grid, storage, industry decarbonisation – the transition is a technology race, and it needs a room of its own.

Shape it from the ideation phase →

Media

Ideation phase

AI is rewriting how content is made, distributed and paid for. Austria’s media houses shouldn’t watch that from the audience.

What our corporate community says.

“Innovation is becoming increasingly complex – which is exactly why a strong innovation ecosystem is essential. weXelerate brings together companies across the entire value chain to jointly tackle challenges. This cross-industry collaboration is a major advantage.”

Andreas Mühlberger
Andreas MühlbergerStrategic Partner Management, Infineon Austria

“We see innovation as a key element not only in our products, but also in how we manage and structure our processes and operations. That’s why exchanging ideas with companies of different industries and sizes, the startup ecosystem, and academic institutions is essential to us. weXelerate provides a valuable platform for this exchange.”

Philipp Bousa
Philipp BousaVice President CIO & Digital Office, OMV AG

“It’s extremely important for us to connect with similarly sized organizations that bring strong experience in innovation management. Even though people might not expect it, we face the same challenges in the social sector as companies in industry or banking – and the exchange across sectors helps us move forward significantly.”

Florian Pomper
Florian PomperHead of Innovation, Caritas Österreich

“In the program, multiple companies from different industries work on the same challenges. This allows us to learn from diverse approaches and apply them within our own organization. That’s one of the key reasons why the program is so effective.”
