Hannes Götsch is a social entrepreneur and developer of transdisciplinary strategy processes, a music enthusiast, and a lifelong advocate for nightlife as a catalyst for social change. For over two decades, he has been active within the regional and international club and subcultural networks, co-founding initiatives, festivals, and collectives such as SPUNK, Kognitiv, and Revoltekk. As an insomniac, he brought his deep jungle / drum and bass selections to dance floors across Europe. As founder and Chief Visionary Officer of the hybrid hub “BASIS Vinschgau Venosta”, Hannes continues to shape the organization’s future while championing the transformative power of culture. Through the multifunctional studio venue “KASINO”, he creates spaces where nightlife, community and creativity intersect, driven by the belief that shared cultural practices and the switch from pure consumption to production can connect layers and inspire lasting socio- ecological change and wealth distribution.
