Not Kurz’s first foray into entrepreneurship
The new company is by no means Kurz’s first foray into entrepreneurship. Since leaving politics, he has founded investment companies and is active in the field of cybersecurity. Friesacher, who, like Kurz and the third owner, is entitled to one third each, worked as Senior Vice President of OMV. In 2018 he bought the Gmundner ceramics factory.
