    I joined Talente Österreich at the beginning of my law studies. Through exciting workshops in soft and hard skills lead by top companies, I was able to develop personally. Furthermore I benefitted greatly from 1:1 mentoring and the role model effect of numerous exciting personalities in the Talente Österreich network. I particularly enjoyed working on my teams‘ "Meisterstück", in which we planned a social project together.

uniforce Consulting GmbH

uniforce.at
What makes us special:
There are several reasons why uniforce might be a unique and extraordinary chance for students to grow personally and acquire professional skills. However, the most important one might be both the chance and the need to develop leadership skills, formally by becoming Managing Partner or Department Head, but also informally because every single member can come up with its very own visions and objectives she or he wants to achieve. In fact, everyone could be the one to shape the future of the organization for many years or even a decade.

uniforce Consulting is an Austrian student consultancy founded in 1989, initially the first organization putting the originally French concept of Junior Enterprises to practice in Austria.   Since 2001 uniforce Consulting was transformed to a limited liability company.   With its three locations in Vienna, Carinthia and Upper Austria, uniforce Consulting is a vibrant, growing organization operating in all middle-European countries and temporarily overseas when required by international clients.

What our alumnis say about us:

  • Hero Shot - Evgeniya Ogorodnikova

What makes us special:

The Business & Finance Club Vienna was founded in 2020 with the aim of promoting and expanding financial education in Austria. Our goal is to offer students of all disciplines with an interest in the world of finance a platform where they can gain further education and network with like-minded people. We offer professional training in almost all core areas of finance (e.g. Equity Valuation / Company Valuation, Investment Banking, Risk Management etc.).
The umbrella organization of BFC Vienna is the Federal Association of Stock Exchange Associations at German Universities (abbreviated: BVH). Under the BVH network there are currently 77 regional clubs from the DACH-region and BFC Vienna is the only one representing Vienna. Every year there is a big conference event organized by BVH taking place in Frankfurt, where all members from the 77 regional clubs are invited. This event is also attended by the largest investment banks, accounting firms and consulting companies and thus it provides students with the opportunity to get hands-on insights from leaders in the field of finance.

What our members say about us:

I personally see BFC Vienna as a great networking platform for young students to connect with leading firms in the field of finance.

Besides, I also wanted to help young and ambitious students to find their path in the finance world. One of the reasons why I have co-founded the club is my interest in trading – forme it is always fun to discuss current stock picks and trends. Besides my studies and the club, I have done internships in Investment Banking, CorporateStrategy, Consulting, and Venture Capital. Today I work as a ManagementConsultant at Roland Berger and still keep in touch with the BFC community.

neuron.ai

neuron-ai.at
What makes us special:

neuron.ai is a non-profit student initiative located in Linz, Austria. The organization pursues the goal of fostering AI talent at Austrian universities by providing the possibility to actively engage in the development of state-of-the-art technologies in workshops or AI-based coding challenges as well as fully-fledged research with renowned academic institutions and industrial business partners. The interdisciplinary and open-minded drive behind the initiative connects everybody interested in the domain of Artificial Intelligence, regardless of one's degree program.

What our members say about us:

  • David Fleischanderl
    When I first heard the pitch for an AI-centred initiative for university students, I was rather skeptical, since I didn’t think many students would be motivated to invest time into learning about topics they were already being taught in courses on a daily basis. Nevertheless, I went along since I thought it couldn’t hurt to try and make a platform to help motivation for self-studying amongst students. Looking back now, at what we already created in these approximately 5 months of being active I’m embarrassed, that I didn’t see this potential and at the same time I am proud of what we have built and continue to work on.
  • Nathanya Queby Satriani
    After more than two years of distance learning, I stepped onto university grounds worrying about how I could possibly blend in amid unfamiliar faces. To my pleasant surprise, neuron.ai welcomed me with open arms and introduced me to people I now consider to be valuable friends. Every activity - from collaborative paper readings to good old meetups - has reignited my passion for the topic and fueled my motivation to navigate through learning pitfalls in my studies. Moving forward, I'm confident that this community will continue to inspire and encourage many others throughout their academic journey.
