Family Business Meets Startup Speed

What happens when 375 years of entrepreneurial history meet startup speed?

Victoria Neuhofer grew up in an 11th-generation family business – surrounded by entrepreneurship long before she even knew what the word meant.

But instead of simply entering the existing company, she went out and built her own businesses.

That gave her a unique perspective.

She understands the patience, responsibility and long-term thinking of a family business – but also the speed, experimentation and “let’s just try it” mentality of startups.

And she believes the best companies need both.

In this keynote, Victoria explores:

• what startups can learn from companies that survive generations

• what traditional companies can learn from startup speed

• why long-term thinking and fast execution are not opposites

• how to innovate without throwing away everything that already works

• why tradition can be an advantage – if it doesn’t become an excuse

• how generations can learn from each other

• why entrepreneurial thinking has very little to do with company size

• what it really takes to build something that lasts

Victoria brings stories from both worlds onto the stage.

Because sometimes the smartest way forward is not choosing between old and new.

It is taking the best from both – and moving faster.
