So when do you actually work on that side project you keep meaning to start? \nMost passion projects don’t fail because the idea is bad — they stall because life gets in the way and there’s never a dedicated time to just sit down and build. Vibe Code Wednesday exists to fix that. \nEvery Wednesday evening\, weXelerate Plaza transforms into a free\, open space for builders\, tinkerers\, and AI-curious minds of all levels. \n  \nNo sign-up. No agenda. No keynote. \nJust show up with your laptop\, find a spot\, and make progress on the thing you’ve been saying you’ll start “next week.” \nThink of it like going to a library to study — except the vibe is better\, the people are building genuinely cool things\, and you might just ship something you’re actually proud of. \n  \nWhat to expect: \n\nFree entry\, every week — no registration or preparation needed.\nWiFi and power outlets are ready for you\, and coffee\, matcha\, and cold drinks are available on-site via vending machines.\nYou’ll be in a room full of people working on things they actually care about\, from first-time builders to seasoned developers who just need a consistent time to get into flow.\n\n  \nCome when you can\, leave when you want.

SUMMARY:Innovation Insights: Governance-First AI & Operationalizing EU AI Act | Members Only
DESCRIPTION:Online | 60 Minutes\n\nGovernance-First AI: Operationalizing the EU AI Act\n\nGuest speaker: Daniela Birnbauer\, Attorney at Law / AI & IT/Tech (Schönherr Rechtsanwälte)\n\n\n  \nIn 2026 a clear approach to how to govern AI is a must. The EU AI Act requirements are clear. The challenge is in translating them into operational processes\, accountability structures and cross-functional alignment. \n\nThis requires more than legal interpretation\, it requires a governance blueprint that connects risk profiles\, data flows\, product lifecycles and business strategy. \n\nIn this member-only Innovation Insight session\, Daniela Birnbauer (Schönherr Rechtsanwälte) brings a practical\, technology-aware legal lens to AI governance. With her deep expertise in IT law\, AI regulation\, data governance and digitalisation\, Daniela goes beyond compliance checklists to explore how organisations can embed trustworthy\, scalable governance into their AI practices. \n\nWhat We Will Explore \n\n\n\nHow governance policies and approval processes can be structured to reflect both legal requirements and business realities \n\n\nWhy governance needs to bridge legal\, technical and operational teams \n\n\nHow companies can build confidence\, clarity and competitive advantage as they operationalize the EU AI Act across functions. \n\n\n\nThis practical session provides actionable governance strategies to turn regulatory obligations into structured\, sustainable practice. \n\nWho Should Join \n\n\nCorporate innovation leaders \n\n\nStrategy & digital transformation executives \n\nBusiness unit leaders engaging with AI initiatives & compliance\n\nAI program owners inside large organizations \n\n\nAI & Data Strategy Leads \n\n\n\n\nInnovation Insights is an exclusive format for weXelerate members.\nNext Is Now. All In On AI.

SUMMARY:The Croissant Club #3 – Trash to Treasure
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n\n\n\n\nLet’s talk about future spaces. Ein kuratiertes Frühstücksformat von Yuniti. \n\n  \n\n\n\n🥐 Willkommen beim The Croissant Club #3! 🥐 \n  \nWelcome by Yuniti & Design Circle \n  \nLet’s talk about: Trash to Treasure. \n  \nAm 10. April 2026 laden wir ins WeXelerate Auditorium (Praterstraße 1\, 1020 Wien) ein. Bei Coffee & Croissants geht es um eine Frage\, die wir uns viel öfter stellen sollten: Was machen wir aus dem\, was schon da ist? Restmaterialien\, ungenutztes Know-how\, leerliegende Flächen – Ressourcen\, die in jeder Organisation schlummern. Die Frage ist nur: Wer schaut hin? \n  \nEin Blick auf das\, was schon da ist. \n  \nGemeinsam sprechen wir darüber\, wie Unternehmen verborgene Potenziale heben können – und was es braucht\, um aus einem Restbestand ein neues Produkt\, ein neues Geschäftsmodell oder eine neue Idee zu machen. \n  \nWas erwartet dich? \n  \nDrei parallele Workshop-Impulse\, in denen Expert:innen aus Materialforschung\, Design und Leadership das Thema aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln aufmachen. Nicht nur zuhören – mitdenken\, diskutieren\, an eigenen Themen arbeiten. Danach Fireside Chat mit Bertram List (Yuniti)\, David Doppelreiter (List Holding) und Petre Ognjanovski (Designcircle) über Trash to Treasure in der Praxis. Und dazwischen? Croissants\, Jause\, Networking.

DESCRIPTION:[Live] \n  \n  \nIn-person | 3h\nGuest speaker: Mario Meir-Huber\, AI & Data LeaderEconomics of AI – Financial & Enterprise Value Creation.\n\nIn this members-only edition of Cross Corporate Circle\, Mario Meir-Huber brings a business-first perspective on the Economics of AI\, grounded in his hands-on experience leading Data & AI in large organizations and his work as author and lecturer. \n\nMario delivers a practical\, executive-level framework for turning AI investments into measurable enterprise value. Many AI initiatives begin with strong executive sponsorship and significant investment\, yet fail to generate sustained impact. The root cause is rarely the model itself. It is the disconnect between financial value and organizational readiness. \n\n\nWhat we will explore: \n\nTest whether an AI business case is economically robust (Napkin Test)\nIdentify hidden margin erosion (dual-run costs\, technical debt\, platform entropy)\nAssess feasibility across Governance\, Architecture and People\nPosition initiatives on the Value–Feasibility Matrix before capital is committed\nTranslate foundation investments into defensible board-level value logic\n\n\nThe VANE Loop Framework gives a single\, visual language to connect what an AI use case is worth with what your organization can actually deliver\, and to make that connection visible to every stakeholder in the room\, from the CFO to the platform team. \n\nWe’ll start with an uncomfortable truth: if your AI business case needs a 47-tab spreadsheet\, you don’t understand it well enough. You’ll learn the Napkin Test — a radically simple approach to unit economics that survives real scrutiny and discover the hidden costs that silently kill AI margins: dual-run taxes\, technical debt and platform entropy that nobody tracks until it’s too late. Then we flip to the other side\, feasibility. Not just “can we build it?” but the full picture – Governance\, Architecture and People. Because an AI model that works in a notebook but can’t be governed\, operated or adopted in the real world isn’t feasible. It’s a demo. \n\nThe magic happens where these two dimensions meet. You’ll plot use cases on the Value–Feasibility matrix\, identify your Stars\, your Challengers and your No-Go Zones and walk away knowing exactly how to tell your board: “If we invest €1.5M into the foundations\, we unlock €45M in value.” That’s a message that moves budgets. \n\nFinally\, we close the loop: a continuous steering rhythm inspired by military strategy that keeps your AI portfolio aligned with reality\, because in AI a plan that’s right today is wrong next quarter. Come ready to challenge your assumptions. Leave with a framework that actually works. \n\nWho should join \n\n\nStrategy and transformation leaders \n\n\nExecutives responsible for AI and data initiatives \n\n\nDecision-makers shaping enterprise AI portfolios\n \n\n\nSenior leaders responsible for enterprise competitiveness \n\n\nInnovation leaders and digital portfolio \n\n\n\nFormat \nA focused session for corporates already implementing AI delivering a Vane Loop Framework for stronger AI investment decisions\, better alignment. and fewer write-offs.\nChallenge your assumptions and leave with a framework that actually works. \nIn-person. Peer exchange. Structured discussion. \n\nCross Corporate Circle is an exclusive in-person format for weXelerate members.\nNext Is Now. All In On AI.

SUMMARY:Cross Corporate Circle: Innovation messbar machen [members only]
DESCRIPTION:Cross Corporate Circle mit Christian Friedl\nKPIs – Innovation messbar machen \nInnovation im Frühstadium messbar zu machen gilt als einer der „heiligen Grale“ moderner Unternehmensführung.

Immer mehr etablierte Organisationen nutzen diese Ansätze\, um Unsicherheiten zu reduzieren und Potenziale greifbar zu machen. \nIn diesem Workshop lernen die Teilnehmer:innen\, welche KPIs in welcher Phase sinnvoll sind\, wie dabei mit Risiken umgegangen wird und wie bereits einfache Dashboards helfen\, Innovation erfolgreich zu steuern und zu bewerten. \nInhalte: \n\nWarum Frühphasen-Innovation so schwer messbar ist\nStartup-Ansätze für etablierte Organisationen\nRelevante KPIs definieren & umsetzen\nRisiken und Unsicherheiten managen\n\n  \nSpeaker: Christian Friedl \nChristian Friedl ist Associate Professor am Institut für Internationales Management der FH JOANNEUM und Studiengangsleiter des Masterprogramms Digital Entrepreneurship.

Er ist Mitglied des Boards der Global Entrepreneurship Research Association (GERA\, UK)\, Leiter des Global Entrepreneurship Monitor Austria und koordiniert mehrere europaweite Forschungsprojekte zu Unternehmertum und Innovation. Darüber hinaus entwickelt er preisgekrönte Business-MOOCs und MicroCredentials\, ist Unternehmer in der Musikindustrie und berät Unternehmen zu Corporate Innovation und Edupreneurship. \nFormat \nDer Cross Corporate Circle ist ein exklusives Format für alle\, die praxisnahe Einblicke suchen\, neue Perspektiven kennenlernen und berufliche Netzwerke ausbauen möchten.
