Sometimes, doing good starts with cleaning out a drawer 🥰

Over the past weeks, our VIECON colleagues collected donations for the Zwei Wien Charity Flea Market. And the result was truly impressive. Toys, decorations, household items and many other treasures quickly filled up our collection area.

When Ricardo Rikal from Viertel Zwei Management stopped by to pick everything up, he was genuinely overwhelmed by the amount of donations our team had gathered. 🙌

The donated items will be sold at the Viertel Zwei Charity Flea Market on 11 June, where visitors can browse, discover hidden gems and support a great cause at the same time.

Because 100% of the proceeds will be donated to St. Anna Kinderspital. ❤️‍🩹
A huge thank you to everyone at VIECON who contributed!

Please come and shop for a good cause:

How can scientific research create real impact beyond conference halls?

This weekend, Vienna’s Karlsplatz becomes exactly that kind of space. Before VIECON welcomes the International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA 2026) with more than 8,000 international experts next week, the “Festival der Roboter” brings robotics directly into the city: https://www.roboterinwien.com/

Humanoid robots, autonomous systems, live demonstrations, talks and hands-on experiences make current developments in robotics accessible for everyone in the middle of public space. It is organised by Technische Universität Wien and AIM Group Austria, and conceptually developed by UIV Urban Innovation Vienna.

For us, this is a strong example of how international conferences can create knowledge transfer far beyond the venue itself. Not only by connecting researchers and industry experts, but by opening up future technologies to the wider public and inspiring the next generation.

Vienna will become a global meeting point for the robotics community over the coming days — and it all starts this weekend at Karlsplatz. 🤖

Eurovision Song Contest may look glamorous on stage. But behind the scenes? Controlled chaos 💀

That’s why our IT colleagues Niki, Andi, Dominik & Abraham were right in the middle of the action at this year’s ESC in Wiener Stadthalle.

🔌 Dominik supported the technical setup by configuring switches and access points, laying cables and helping with the overall infrastructure build-up.

📡 Abraham focused on mounting and cabling access points while making sure the entire technical network stayed almost completely invisible to visitors.

🛠️ Niki stepped in as an experienced troubleshooter, supporting technical coordination and solving unexpected issues behind the scenes.

💻 Andi worked on the interface between accreditation data and personalized WLAN access systems.

Would they do it again if Eurovision returns to Vienna? The answer from all of them was very clear: absolutely. 🙌

Today marks the final day of SLAS Europe 2026 at VIECON. From scientific sessions and keynotes to a large‑scale exhibition with around 140 international exhibitors, the format requires a venue where congress and exhibition work seamlessly side by side.

“VIECON was chosen for this event due to the venue’s unique blend of congress center and exhibition facilities,” explains Amy Wilkinson Director, Global Events & Corporate Partnerships at Society for Laboratory Automation and Screening . With three parallel scientific tracks, exhibitor tutorials, keynote sessions and more than 6,500 sqm of exhibition space, integrated infrastructure isn’t a nice‑to‑have – it’s essential.

And beyond spaces and square meters, it’s the human side that stands out. “The service and the people, definitely. It has been such a pleasure working with the VIECON team and the facility and city partners supporting VIECON.”

Thank you to SLAS Europe for trusting VIECON as the setting for a complex, international conference and exhibition.

Big HELLOOOOO from IMEX Frankfurt 👋

Our colleagues Sarah Staudinger-Dobias, Karin Zechner and Kathrin Kremser are currently representing VIECON at the Austria Stand in Hall 8, C160.

It's just day one, but already there’s a fantastic atmosphere and lots of great conversations happening here.

You’re at too? Then come by, spin the wheel and try your luck at winning a great prize 🎡

And here’s another hot tip (quite literally):
The Austria Stand definitely has the best coffee at the entire IMEX. No surprise coming from a country where coffeehouse culture is UNESCO World Heritage. ☕😉

We’re looking forward to seeing you!

Lights, camera, ACTION! 🎬✨

A few days ago, the rooftop of our Parking Garage A turned into the set of a commercial shoot. Star of the show was obviously one of the best views in the city.

These behind-the-scenes photos really show how many people, ideas and moving parts are involved in productions like this. From cameras and lighting to coordination, timing and countless details in between — it takes a whole crew to bring a vision to life.

We’re already excited to see the final result 👀

A reason to smile: WID 2026 kicks off today 🦷😁

The Wiener Internationale Dentalausstellung (WID) has opened its doors, bringing together the dental industry for two days of innovation, exchange, and professional insights.

On May 8 and 9, the VIECON Center becomes a meeting point for experts, exhibitors and professionals from across the field, showcasing the latest technologies, products and developments in dentistry.

From the very first hours, the exhibition floor is already coming to life: a strong lineup of exhibitors, focused conversations and a dynamic atmosphere set the tone.

Behind the scenes, our VIECON project team - Katrin Windl (Project Manager) and Michael Gruber (Technical Event Manager) - is on site, working closely with the organizers to ensure a seamless experience: from setup to live operations across the entire hall D.

That’s a wrap for BioProcess International Europe 2026 at VIECON 👏

Over the past days, BPI once again brought together the global bioprocessing community in Vienna with a strong focus on innovation, collaboration and the future of life sciences.

While the Congress Center hosted a packed programme of talks, presentations and discussions across multiple stages, Hall B became the place to connect, explore and exchange with leading brands from across the industry.

A big thank you to our teams on site, especially Thomas Miemietz (Project Manager) and Martin Kreidl (Technical Manager), who made sure everything ran smoothly behind the scenes.

And we particularly appreciate the strong commitment to sustainability: BPI 2026 was once again a certified Green Meeting — an approach we fully support. 🌱

Thank you to everyone involved for a great event!
