View of a pink future

Vienna, March 14, 2025 – UNOS, with their strongest result so far, let the economic chamber elections take place! The entrepreneurs: Inner platform from NEOS has received 5.3 percent of the votes and is therefore twice as strong after a result of 2.7 percent in 2020 as in the last choice. This gives UNOS 241 mandates in the trade organizations of the Chamber of Commerce. There were strong mandate gains in Styria, Lower Austria, Vienna and Upper Austria.

“The time of black sight in the Chamber of Commerce is over. We look to a pink future with confidence, ”says UNOS federal spokesman Michael Bernhard. UNOS this time with more than twice as many candidates in four divisions and in almost 200 specialist organizations. With this success, UNS will continue the successful work of the past 10 years as an even stronger voice for liberal -thinking entrepreneurs in the Chamber of Commerce.

“The result shows that our demands for relief and de -bureaucratization are shared by many voters and we continue to commit ourselves with full strength. Our goal is and remains a slim, service -oriented and voluntary advocacy for business people and there is now even more support for this, ”emphasizes Bernhard. “Austria has to become a country again in which entrepreneurs can work without unnecessary bureaucracy and without grueling conditions, with more freedom and less state,” said Bernhard.

“In the past few months, we have talked intensively with entrepreneurs across Austria about what is important for them to develop positively. These many conversations have obviously paid off in the election, ”explains Michael Bernhard. “UNOS still work for these concerns such as more entrepreneurial freedom, compatibility of entrepreneurship and family, reduction in non -wage costs and a fair tax system that rewards performance instead of punishing them.”

A downside for UNOS is still the low turnout. “No wonder that the interest in choosing is low in compulsory membership. This low turnout benefits the strongest election group, the business association, ”explains Michael Bernhard. “A voting right reform is urgently necessary. The reports on abnormalities in the course of the current economic chamber elections show that the Chamber of Commerce must finally deliver here, ”continued Bernhard.
