NAVAX Innovation Day 2025
On May 8, 2025, Tech Gate Vienna was transformed into a stage for innovation and dialog.
The first on-site NAVAX Innovation Day brought together experts on data strategy and artificial intelligence as well as representatives from various industries. The goal: an exchange about the power of data and the future of artificial intelligence.
After a warm welcome by Oliver Krizek, Managing Director of the NAVAX Group, Carina Zehetmaier, award winner, AI entrepreneur and keynote speaker, opened the event with an impressive keynote. With strong impulses, she showed how essential a responsible approach to artificial intelligence is.
Philipp Hinterecker, Cloud Solution Architect for Data & AI at Microsoft Austria, presented how companies can optimally prepare their data for AI applications with Microsoft Fabric. Oliver Wesely, Team Lead Artificial Intelligence at NAVAX Consulting, gave a practical demonstration of specific application examples and presented the innovative chatbot NAVAX Buddy - a tangible example of AI enablement in day-to-day business.
The best-practice customer presentations by Christian Bohne, CFO at Theobald Software, and Patrick Eberle, Head of the Data and Analytics Office at EVVA Sicherheitstechnologie, were a particular highlight of the program. They impressively demonstrated how data quality can become a strategic success factor. While the first presentation focused on the path to data-driven decisions, the second focused on a well thought-out data strategy for industry.
Andreas Resl, Team Lead Presales & Product Architecture at NAVAX Consulting, concluded the event with an entertaining live demo. Using exciting use cases from everyday business life, he impressively demonstrated what really matters when it comes to âwishingâ - i.e. prompting.

During the subsequent networking session, participants had the opportunity to talk to each other across industry boundaries and get to know new perspectives.
We would like to thank all participants, speakers and partners who made this exchange possible. The next NAVAX Innovation Day can come - and with it new ideas, contacts and solutions!
