The team: Vladlena Taraskina, Matthias Kubicki, Thomas Steinbrenner, and Angela Fux Photo credit: Rupert Pessl, www.rupertpessl.comWe received our initial capital through…
We are self-financed.
Our boldest move was…
Our decision to revolutionise a very conservative market space of office space rental in Austria and change the rules of the game of how office space is rented and used.
The real pain about starting a business in Austria is…
The lack of financing for development of a prototype and of our idea. We have been told to come back after we have tested our concept.
The one thing we would save from our burning office is…
Our office is very minimalistic so we would just save ourselves and our laptops.
The worst piece of advice we ever got was…
Just wait until you are older and more experienced to start your own business.
We’ll give up when…
…we see that our vision and reality are driving apart instead of getting closer, and when we’ve lost sense of why we started our business in the first place.
Our inside joke is…
“Do you want to rent an office space? We can offer you two months for free if you sign a 7-year contract with us.”
You might not believe it, but we…
We don’t want to go to Silicon Valley.
We’ll call ourselves successful when…
When we have utilised all the empty standing rooms in Vienna and Austria, and have created a network where people can work on their own terms.
