On May 14, 2025, the Aula der Wissenschaften in Vienna will be the place to be when Austria's largest Green Finance Festival enters its third round.

For the third time, the Climate and Energy Fund is organizing “The Green 100,” Austria’s largest green finance festival, to support companies in financing their green projects, connect investors and innovators, and inspire sustainable investments.

The focus is on the economic opportunities of a green transformation, as innovative, climate-friendly technologies, products, and services are crucial for this change. Domestic companies that embrace green strategies early on can position themselves as pioneers and secure competitive advantages. Sustainability is becoming increasingly important for many stakeholders and attracts both investors and workers.

The festival offers two central program focuses

Matchmaking: A tailor-made matchmaking program connects startups and scale-ups with investors from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE). The goal is to create optimal matches that offer the greatest benefit to both sides and facilitate access to capital for green innovations.

Green Finance Fair: The fair presents a wide range of sustainable financial products, networking and financing platforms, support services and digital tools that improve the financing of green projects.

In addition to the trade fair and matchmaking, participants can expect a diverse supporting program with workshops, panel discussions, and presentations from leading experts in the field of green finance. Visitors can also learn comprehensively about sustainable investment opportunities and financial education. Further information can be found at www.thegreen100.at.
