LEO HILLINGER
ENTREPRENEUR AND ORGANIC WINEGROWER WITH A PASSION

Konsequenz, Konsequenz, Konsequenz! (Consistency, consistency, consistency!) ¬– this is not only the title of Leo’s biography but also Leo Hillinger’s motto in life. Thanks to his unconventional approach coupled with his inborn flair for innovation, he has not only elevated his father’s small wine business to the status of a top international company, but has also redefined marketing strategies in the wine trade.

The wines grown on more than one hundred hectares in the Austrian winegrowing region Leithaberg in northern Burgenland are now exported to some twenty countries around the world. Leo Hillinger runs his internationally renowned business with passion and commitment. He has remained true to himself – as an organic winegrower, as an entrepreneur and as an ambassador for his region.

Although Leo Hillinger puts his heart and soul into his wines, the charismatic and passionate winegrower has become much more than that.

He is an entrepreneur, investor, business angel for promising start-ups, author, TV star, extreme sportsman and health fanatic, and has already received numerous awards, both as an entrepreneur and as a winegrower.

LIFE STORY
LEO HILLINGER – THE BIOGRAPHY

In his biography Konsequenz, Konsequenz, Konsequenz!, published in 2017, Leo Hillinger tells his success story. It is the story of a man who turned the Austrian and international wine world upside down from a small, tranquil village on Lake Neusiedl. He took over a highly indebted family business, had no vineyards worth mentioning and no name. With a wealth of ideas – and above all, consistency – he became a celebrated star in his industry and now allows others to benefit from his experience, knowledge and prominence.

Leo Hillinger’s autobiography provides unprecedented personal insights into the life of this exceptional winegrower: how he thinks, how he acts, where his priorities lie –  who Leo Hillinger really is.

It speaks of the past, present and future and captivates the reader with surprising, unembellished and – above all – honest stories

PRESENTATION
FROM 0 TO 100 – WITH CONSISTENCY TO SUCCESS

The man behind the Leo HILLINGER brand has managed to turn his parents’ small wine business into one of the biggest and best enterprises in its sector. With creative ideas, unusual marketing measures and a healthy dose of ‘feeling for the business’.

Today, Leo Hillinger runs a company that has long since outgrown its core business and has become internationally renowned. The path to this success has not always been smooth. However, the goal was always clear. With consistency, diligence and determination, Leo Hillinger has worked his way up from underdog of the wine scene to one of the leading entrepreneurs in the industry.

He traces his success story in his presentation From 0 to 100 – With Consistency to Success. In a very humorous, almost cabaret style. With self-targeted irony, a certain twinkle in his eye and numerous personal anecdotes that show that the conventional route is not always the only one that leads to the goal.
