Let’s Talk About Tech

Berthold Baurek-Karlic welcomes Andreas Mühlberger, Strategic Partner Manager at Infineon, to Let’s Talk About Tech for a conversation about how Europe’s largest semiconductor company works with startups. From co-innovation and venture clienting to the realities of scaling hardware, they explore what it really takes to industrialize technology in Europe. They discuss why 25% of Infineon's global R&D happens in Austria, what it means to produce 8 billion chips a year in Villach, why a 300-millimetre wafer has to be thinner than a human hair, and how the co-innovation program gives startups access not just to Infineon's products but to its 60,000 experts. Mühlberger also breaks down the four ways a startup can end up working with Infineon, from customer to business partner to IP licensing to supplier, explains how the startup challenge selected 12 European and 6 Asian teams out of 104 applicants from 29 countries, and shares his perspective on why Europe produces world-class research but keeps losing the industrialization stage to the US and Asia.   Guest Speaker: Andreas Mühlberger ➡️ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreasmuehlberger/ Infineon Co-Innovation Program: https://www.infineon.com/partners/startups 📅 The demo day takes place on 6 October in Graz, alongside the EBS Con electronics conference: https://www.infineon.com/partners/startups/humanoid-robotics Investors interested in joining can get in touch with Venionaire Capital.   Moderator: Berthold Baurek-Karlic ➡️ https://www.linkedin.com/in/berthold-baurek-karlic-30228045/ Venionaire Capital: 🌐 Website: https://www.venionaire.com 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/venionaire/ 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/venionaire/

In this episode of Let's Talk About Tech, host Philipp Sakuler sits down with Peter Stolcz, Director of B2B Sales at AMINA, to explore what actually separates regulated crypto providers now that almost all of them offer the same baseline of trading and custody. They discuss how the conversation with financial institutions has shifted since 2020, when banks would not open an account for a crypto company at all, what separates AMINA's Swiss banking entity from its MiCA-licensed Austrian subsidiary, why Austria became the European entry point for the first crypto banking group to hold a MiCA CASP licence, and why settlement design, connectivity and business continuity matter more than the service list.

In this episode of Let's Talk About Tech, host Philipp Sakuler sits down with Maurice Mureau, Co-Founder and CEO of HODL Group, to explore how institutional capital is moving into digital assets with HODL's regulated investment funds. They discuss why the allocator conversation has shifted from "is this even an asset class?" to "how much volatility do I want to own", how HODL's ZK Fund targets 12–18% annually regardless of market direction, why the equity-to-token venture model faded, and where custody still blocks institutional entry. Mureau also breaks down why he left a five-star-rated traditional fund career for digital assets, and shares his perspective on stablecoins in remittances, decentralization as an underrated feature, and what the industry will realise it underestimated five years from now.

In this episode of Let's Talk About Tech - Vienna Blockchain Week 2026 Edition, host Philipp Sakuler sits down with Ariel Navarro, CEO of Whale Capital, to explore how digital assets are maturing into an institutional asset class, from 26 years inside traditional finance at Banco Santander, Citibank and Allfunds, to building algorithmic strategies that navigate crypto market cycles. They discuss why institutional investors remain cautious, what MiCA does and does not solve for Europe, where tokenization is actually gaining traction versus where it is still conference talk, and why valuing a protocol still looks more like venture capital than equity analysis. Navarro also breaks down why he expects the vast majority of tokens to disappear, and shares his perspective on derivatives, 100x leverage, self-regulation, and what the industry is quietly building during the bear market.

They discuss how Albert went from two decades in the Austrian Armed Forces and intelligence to losing six Bitcoin and building a forensics practice, why "privacy coins" leave more traces than people think, and how investment, romance, and Ponzi scams actually unfold on-chain. Quehenberger also breaks down the Global Crypto Defenders Alliance, what DAC8 and CARF mean for money-mule networks, and shares his perspective on why even the largest institutions — as the Bybit hack showed — can never be fully safe.   Guest Speaker: Albert Quehenberger ➡️ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/albert-quehenberger-6791a3174/ AQ Forensics: https://www.aq-forensics.com   Moderator: Berthold Baurek-Karlic ➡️ https://www.baurek-karlic.at Venionaire Capital: 🌐 Website: https://www.venionaire.com 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/venionaire/ 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/venionaire/

Florian also breaks down the incoming CARF and DAC8 reporting frameworks, and what an open book of crypto transaction data means for investors, and shares his perspective on stablecoins, a potential euro stablecoin under MiCA, and the enforcement wave he believes is finally here.

Recorded live at Vienna Blockchain Week 2026, organized by neob.ai and Austrian Blockchain Center - ABC Research, the conversation explores what it really takes to keep decentralized networks secure, resilient, and online 24/7. They discuss why H2O Nodes runs its own bare metal instead of the cloud, what node operators actually do and why decentralization depends on it, and how a lean team decides which chains are worth betting their time and hardware on.
