Costvise Partners with USTP and SMARTUP St. Pölten

Costvise partners with USTP and SMARTUP St. Pölten to strengthen the exchange between startups, academia and practice.

Costvise Partners with USTP and SMARTUP St. Pölten

Costvise has two new cooperation partners. With USTP, the University of Applied Sciences St. Pölten, and SMARTUP St. Pölten, we are working more closely with the environment Costvise calls home.

Where different perspectives meet

Innovation happens where different perspectives come together. USTP creates an environment in which science, entrepreneurship, and practice meet. As a HealthTech company, this interplay is especially valuable to us.

We are building a decision intelligence platform for organisations in the health and social care sector. Anyone who builds decision foundations for staffing and resources in a regulated environment needs scientific grounding just as much as closeness to practice. A university that connects both is the right partner for that.

SMARTUP St. Pölten

SMARTUP is funded by the City of St. Pölten and implemented by USTP. The initiative supports innovation, entrepreneurship, and startups in the region. SMARTUP is not a new name for us. This summer we received the 8th SMARTUP Scholarship, and this cooperation is the next step on that path.

What we plan to do together

As part of our cooperation, we want to strengthen the exchange between startups, academia, and practice, create new momentum, and contribute to the further development of the startup ecosystem in St. Pölten.

LEAPXR and E³UDRES²

In this context we would especially like to highlight LEAPXR and the E³UDRES² European University. These initiatives open up additional spaces for innovation, entrepreneurship, and networking, and provide valuable impulses for startups and innovative projects. LEAPXR is funded by the European Union.

We look forward to what comes next

We would like to thank USTP and the entire SMARTUP team for their trust and for the openness with which we were welcomed.

For us, this cooperation is more than a shared logo. It is an invitation to share knowledge, to learn from each other, and to test ideas early with people from science and practice. That exchange is what a young company needs if it wants to make a difference in the health and social care sector.

St. Pölten is our home base. All the more reason to look forward to developing the startup ecosystem here together with strong partners. We look forward to working together and to everything that will come of it.
