WBD101 has developed extremely accurate heart rate measurement technology. We hope that the accelerator program will allow them to explore the advantages of Austria as an IoT hub in Europe.
HONG KONG, October 02, 2017 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Republic of Austria, home to just 8.7 million people in Central Europe, is also home to many Multi-National Corporations such as Austria Micro AMS, Palfinger, Red Bull and Swarovski. Austria is where acid resistant penicillin was discovered so that it could be administered orally and the country is within 3 hours by air to all of Europe, which makes it an ideal place to become the IoT Centre of Europe.

"We are also happy to announce that Hong Kong startup Well Being Digital was selected to explore the Austrian startup scene with a participation in the GIN goAustria Programme, all expenses paid. WBD101 has developed extremely accurate heart rate measurement technology that can be applied to earphones and wrist watches. We hope that their participation in the accelerator program GIN goAustria will allow them to explore the advantages of Austria as an IoT hub in Europe," says Franz Roessler, Austrian Trade Commissioner in Hong Kong.
