What we’re about
Welcome to the Objectivism Vienna Meetup Group!
We are a growing community of individuals interested in the philosophy of Ayn Rand—Objectivism—and how it applies to life, culture, and current events.
We meet weekly to explore themes such as individualism, reason, rational self-interest, capitalism, art, and ethics. Whether you're a seasoned reader of Rand or just curious, you're welcome to join the conversation.
Each session features a focused topic or reading (usually short and optional), followed by open discussion in a relaxed, respectful setting.
Why Join?
Engage with like-minded people who value freedom, purpose, and thought.
Deepen your understanding of Ayn Rand’s ideas and their relevance today.
Exchange insights on how to live a more rational, purposeful, and independent life.
Our goal is to build a vibrant intellectual community in Vienna based on reason and individualism. Join us and be part of it.

The ecological movement is out to stop and even reverse industrialization, since it's seen as an evil assault against nature. But industry is required for human life and the more industry we have the better life is on earth for humans. Despite claims of looming climate catastrophes for decades, no such thing has occured while industry has lifted people out of poverty, made their lives longer and provided us with medicine and technology.
Let's discuss Ayn Rand's essay "𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗶-𝗜𝗻𝗱𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘂𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻". You can find it here:
