Vienna has ranked among the world's leading meeting destinations for years - not only due to its outstanding infrastructure, accessibility, and expertise, but also because this is where global knowledge is transformed into local value.
Congresses and business events in Vienna create more than exchange and economic impact. They actively contribute to fostering sustainable, high-quality, and future-oriented growth that extends beyond the event itself.
Vienna Impact Stories - Business events with lasting impact
Vienna views meetings as part of a responsible visitor economy.
As part of its "Optimum Tourism" strategy, the city aims to enhance the societal value of meetings through legacy initiatives that leave a tangible impact on the city and its residents. These efforts are brought together under the title "Vienna Impact Stories".
The Vienna Convention Bureau (VCB) actively supports event organizers in linking the objectives of their meetings or their congress mission with projects in the fields of education, health, inclusion, culture, and sustainability. To achieve this, we connect organizers with selected Viennese organizations and companies listed in our legacy toolbox.
In Vienna, long-term benefits and sustainable action go hand in hand - for event organizers, for the destination, and for the people of Vienna.
