Would you like to know more about 10 Growth Stage startups from Slovenia and Austria that have been selected to this spring's Start:up Alpe Adria acceleration program?

Let's get to know these 10 startups:


NORDRIL TECHNOLOGIES

Data is the heart of modern business processes. But if you don't know how to use it it doesn't help much. Do you agree?
 
Nordril Technologies, another Austrian startup, developed an easy to use solution Capture Suite to collect, verify and handle different internal and external data sources your company uses.
 
It provides an extensive scraping system that allows you to collect data from internal and external, proprietary and free datasources. Each datasource is validated by a learning system according to your needs. Data can then be transferred to other systems or used for analysis via their visualisation engine.

OPTI.SPACE

Do you need a space for work occassionally? Would you like to reserve it quickly and simply? Opti.Space developed the first platform in Slovenia and worldwide, which enables short-term rental and leasing of professional and equipped space of all kinds. It works on a similar principle as Airbnb and thus enables young entrepreneurs to significantly reduce the initial costs associated with renting business premises.
 
“Even when I was employed, I realized how difficult it is to find spaces that would be suitable for activities such as“ teambuilding ”or“ brainstorming ”. We said to ourselves that it would be great to have all offers in one place; that everyone can see existing options, the prices and that it is possible to make a reservation immediately. Similar to Airbnb in the tourism industry, we want it for business, " said Sabina Veronika Golob, CEO at Opti.Space, who works in startup together with Apolonija Kurent Lebar.
 
Opti.Space, we wish you good luck.

Agitron is a fast-growing Slovenia-based startup of digital natives and avid shoppers that are focused on new technology-driven innovations in how in-store data can be captured, analyzed and presented in order to provide the best possible customer experience and service.
