Is an innovative business idea taking shape in your mind? Take part in the Fit4Business Business Idea Competition 2025!

Fit4Business is the platform for creative minds from the Kufstein region. Aspiring founders are invited to describe their business ideas using a structured guideline. After an initial selection by an expert panel, the chosen ideas are presented at the annual Fit4Business Business Idea Competition.

At the final presentation, the most convincing ideas are jointly assessed for their potential success and economic viability. Participants benefit from valuable feedback for further development as well as opportunities to build networks within the region. As a special highlight, the three most innovative and competitive business ideas are awarded attractive cash prizes. Perhaps even more valuable for you are the following benefits:
