One connection can open doors you never knew existed.
You can have an excellent product, a serious company and big plans. But if you do not know the right people, many opportunities will never even reach you.
That is why this is not just
another business dinner.
IWhy come
When you are surrounded by people who run their own companies and solve serious problems every day, you start to think differently yourself.
Your next big client or partner may not be in the city where you live, but in another country. You just have not had the chance to meet them yet.
Sometimes one conversation with the right person is all it takes to learn how a new market works and take the first step.

People already doing business in places you have yet to reach. From them you learn how things really work and where to start.
II
How many times have you lost weeks looking for the right collaborator or supplier? Here they are in one place, in one room, on one evening.
III
Someone has already been through the same problem. One conversation can help you avoid a mistake that would cost you a lot of time and money.
IIWho is coming
We are expecting entrepreneurs and company owners from five countries at the gala. People with different experience, ideas and contacts, whom you might never meet in everyday life.
If you are the most successful person around you, it may be time to change who is around you.
IIIProgramme
I
A generous dinner at the Va Bene restaurant, right on the banks of the Danube, and unlimited drinks throughout the event.

VVenue
A restaurant in a restored historic building, right on the water: a terrace over the river, its own jetty, views of the Danube and the passing boats. A place where Vienna looks different from the postcards.



VIGetting there
Everything you need to arrive on time and get back without stress: the way to the restaurant, the return after midnight, coming by car or by plane, documents and where to stay.
Details checked on 9 November 2026. Prices and timetables may change, so check the official websites.
Va Bene is on the Danube, about 10 km from the centre. By taxi that is about 16 minutes without traffic, and you should budget roughly 21 to 26 €.
By public transport: U1 then U2 to Donaumarina, then bus 79A to the Grünhaufenbrücke stop, about 2 minutes' walk from the restaurant. From Stephansplatz it takes 24 to 28 minutes. The bus leaves Donaumarina at :08 and :38, the last one at 20:08, so it is a good option for arriving between 18:00 and 19:00.
The evening runs until 24:00, so plan on a taxi for the way back. The last 79A bus by the restaurant leaves as early as 20:16, and the next one not until morning.
Bus 78A from the Aspernallee stop, about 650 m on foot, runs until about 00:30. The U-Bahn runs all night on Saturdays, but you need a taxi to reach it. The timetable after 13 December is not final yet, so check before you set off.
A taxi to the restaurant takes about 20 minutes. Fixed taxi fares to and from the airport are about 37 to 42 €.
The VAB 3 bus goes direct to Donaumarina, then the 79A to the restaurant: about 45 minutes in all, 11 € plus a Vienna ticket.
Note: the city railway through the centre is closed until October 2027. The CAT runs as a bus, and the S7 stops short at St. Marx.
Belgrade about 614 km (about 6.5 hours), Sarajevo about 735 km (about 8.5 hours), Zagreb about 368 km (about 4 hours), not counting waits at the borders.
A parking space for the gala is included in your ticket. We will email the parking details before the event.
Vignette: buy the digital one; 10 days cost 12.80 €. A two-month vignette bought online is only valid from the 18th day, so it is not an option for this weekend.
On-street parking in Vienna is mostly free on Saturdays and Sundays; on Fridays you pay from 09:00 to 22:00. Winter tyres are compulsory when there is snow, slush or ice.
Austria is checking its borders with Hungary, Slovenia, Slovakia and the Czech Republic until 15 March 2027, so allow extra time.
With a biometric passport from Serbia or Bosnia and Herzegovina you do not need a visa, for up to 90 days in a 180-day period. Your passport must be valid for at least 3 more months after you leave and must have been issued within the last 10 years.
ETIAS is not required in December: the system is not running yet. EES is: at your first crossing they take a photo and fingerprints, so expect a longer wait.
Bring your ticket confirmation and hotel booking, in case the border police ask for them.
December averages about 4 °C by day and about 0 °C at night, and the sun sets at about 16:00. Dress warmly for the city, and bring something elegant for the dinner.
Closer to the restaurant, on the U2 line: Hilton Vienna Waterfront (U2 Stadion, right on the Danube) and Courtyard Vienna Prater/Messe (U2 Krieau).
In the centre: Hotel Sacher, Hotel Imperial, Grand Ferdinand and Park Hyatt Vienna. These suggestions are for information only; we are not partners of these hotels.
