We are proud to share that TAGBASE has been nominated for the RIZ GENIUS Ideen- und Gründerpreis 2025 — one of the most respected awards for innovation and entrepreneurship in Lower Austria.
Out of nearly 100 submissions, only 5 startups were nominated in each category. To be among the finalists is a true honor — and a powerful signal that our mission to protect trust in the physical world is being recognized.
The GENIUS Award, organized by RIZ UP, is more than just a prize. It’s a platform that shines a light on startups solving real problems with real impact. The fact that TAGBASE stood out in a multi-stage jury process among so many forward-thinking projects means a lot to us.
We want to express our sincere thanks to the entire RIZ UP GENIUS Jury for believing in our vision, and to the sponsors supporting this initiative. Your support of early-stage innovation makes a real difference — and we’re incredibly grateful to be part of this ecosystem.
The final award ceremony will take place on October 20 at Schloss Laxenburg, and we’re already looking forward to connecting with fellow innovators and celebrating what’s possible when bold ideas meet strong execution.
Thank you again to the jury, the organizers, and the community that continues to support Austrian innovation.
Let’s build the future — one product, one tap, one verification at a time.
