Climate Lab Vienna
Our on-site team is based at Climate Lab, an innovation centre for the climate transition at Spittelau on the Donaukanal. It is run by Impact Hub Vienna in premises provided by Wien Energie, beside the waste-to-energy plant designed by Friedensreich Hundertwasser.
We share it with start-ups, companies and researchers working on the energy transition, sustainable building and the circular economy.
We stay members after the office move, and keep taking part in the community and the events here.

From 2027
Die HausWirtschaft
Our office moves to Die HausWirtschaft in Vienna's Nordbahnviertel, a cooperatively run house where people live and work under one roof, with coworking, workshop rooms and a hall for events. It is a low-energy building with its own solar power, designed by its members together with einszueins architektur, who are also our partners in CollaborativeCarbon.
Roughly half the house is homes and half is workspace. If you are thinking of applying to RISE and wondering where you would live, the flats are worth knowing about: they are let by the cooperative and not by us, so any question about them goes to Die HausWirtschaft.
