Welcome to IMPULSE360!

Hi there, I'm Christian Founder of IMPULSE360

My passion is empowering entrepreneurs to transform their ideas into thriving, high-impact businesses.

Entrepreneurship and innovation have always been at the heart of everything I do. For more than 10 years, I’ve been dedicated to bringing innovative ideas to life -both within established corporations and in the vibrant startup ecosystem -and I’ve had the privilege of working closely with startups, investors, and industry leaders across various sectors.

I firmly believe Europe possesses the talent, creativity, and potential to stand alongside the world’s leading nations in innovation. In Austria, we enjoy excellent early-stage funding and a strong academic research landscape -powered by top universities and a great incubator network, which effectively supports founders in validating their ideas.

Yet many startups struggle to scale and secure growth financing after incubation. With IMPULSE360, my goal is to bridge this gap by equipping visionary entrepreneurs with the resources and networks they need to thrive.
