VIG Kids Camp

Wiener Städtische Versicherungsverein invites children of Group company employees to Austria to take part in VIG’s Kids Camp. Its key aims, achieved through participation in joint activities, include promoting a better understanding between the generations, social engagement, an international outlook and an appreciation of cultural diversity.

VIG KIDS CAMP 2026

In summer 2026, Wiener Städtische Versicherungsverein invited children of employees from Central and Eastern Europe to the VIG Kids Camps in Austria for the fourteenth time.

Around 500 children of VIG employees from 20 European countries spent two exciting weeks at the VIG Kids Camps 2026 in Vienna, Salzburg (Radstadt in Pongau), Bleiburg (Carinthia) and Leibnitz (Styria). In addition to hikes, sightseeing, voyages of discovery, extensive play and swimming fun, this year’s programme once again included a visit to a facility for senior citizens. 

“The VIG Kids Camp offers so much more than a holiday programme. It brings together young people from a variety of different countries, helps to create friendships across cultural boundaries, and fosters important values like respect, tolerance and mutual understanding. The visits to retirement homes are particularly rewarding – because they show just how meaningful dialogue between generations can be. The memories and friendships formed at the VIG Kids Camp often endure way beyond these two weeks,” explained Robert Lasshofer, Chair of the Managing Board of Wiener Städtische Versicherungsverein, the main shareholder of the Vienna Insurance Group (VIG).

“At the VIG Kids Camp, we create a place where children have the opportunity to experience firsthand the diversity that shapes our Group. By doing so, we offer them an entertaining and – at the same time – valuable programme of activities that plays out in an international setting,” noted Hartwig Löger, CEO of the Vienna Insurance Group.
