"Win-win character. Students can find out first-hand about working in practice, and we companies can introduce ourselves directly to them. When science and practice meet, valuable synergies are generated."
InfPro Team Leader Customer Success Michael Fried, MSc
InfPro IT Solutions GmbH and World-Direct eBusiness solutions GmbH, two successful Tyrolean IT companies, took the opportunity to introduce themselves in person. DI Hansjörg Haller, CEO of InfPro IT Solutions Gmbh, was delighted: "The networking event was an extremely successful format in which we were able to present ourselves as a future employer in software development. We had many interesting conversations and made promising contacts."
The Tech Lunch is a new, exclusive networking format initiated by the Department of Computer Science together with the Career Service of the University of Innsbruck. The next Tech Lunch will take place on 23 May 2023. It is currently planned that there will be two events of this kind per year, each with five participating companies.
"As a PhD graduate from the University of Innsbruck, it was a special motivation for me to represent our company World-Direct at the TechLunch. Together with my colleagues Stefan Kirchmair - also a University of Innsbruck alumnus - and Manfred Bergbauer from our HR department, we were able to have inspiring conversations with many students about shaping our digital future. The TechLunch format fits perfectly with our exceptional corporate culture - collegial, goal-orientated and with the right dose of fun. We were particularly impressed by the intimate setting of the event - we quickly got talking and were able to discuss World-Direct and our work on some of Austria's most important digitalisation projects in detail. We were particularly pleased about the numerous applications we received shortly after the TechLunch."
