EFIM Fireplace Talks


Established with corporate partners and students of the Facility & Real Estate Management and Energy & Sustainability Management Bachelor & Master's programs at the Kufstein University of Applied Sciences in Tyrol: the monthly Fireplace Talks. The hosts invite corporations and research institutes to present and engage with students about their ideas, experience, and solution strategies for problems and challenges associated with sustainability, energy, and real estate.  

Invitation to become a corporate partner

Presentation of your corporate ideas and solution strategies at a Fireplace Talk

In a relaxed atmosphere, your company can offer insights behind the scenes. The event occurs monthly on Fridays at the Kufstein University of Applied Sciences in Tyrol. The sessions start between 6:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. and last 60 to 90 minutes. The effort for you is in your time and contribution to drinks and snacks. We take care of the rest. As an added value, you take home contacts that you can enthuse for your company, be it as future employees or as multipliers of your company.

We look forward to Your Message.
