Good news soon after the start of the ZEDHIA project: In October 2012, Mag. Renate Brauner, deputy mayor of the City and deputy governor of the Land of Vienna informs the project team personally that ZEDHIA will receive support within the scope of the promotion "Innovative service projects 2012" from Wirtschaftsagentur Wien,  a fund of the City of Vienna. With this fund the City of Vienna supports the entrepreneurial initiative of the Compass publishing house, with a substantial contribution to the coverage of ZEDHIA's initial cost.
