Start-ups with new and innovative ideas are just as much a part of a functioning travel industry as established players with a wealth of experience and the travelers themselves. Learning from each other and making sensible use of synergies should be at the forefront of the search for smart solutions in the B2C and B2B sectors.

In order to support start-ups and the founders behind them in the process of founding a company through to establishing it on the market, the Verband Internet Reisevertrieb e.V. is particularly keen to promote start-ups. For this reason, VIR established its own start-up cluster in the association some time ago, initiates special projects and organizes special events around the topic, which include the TIC & VIR Start-up Nights, the Start-up Week or various info sessions.

Start-ups play an enormously important and non-negligible role in the tourism ecosystem, as they represent the innovation pool of the industry and drive it forward in an agile, future-oriented way. Therefore, discover our initiatives to support startups!
