Deep Tech innovation -
as a solution for different sectors
Deep Tech innovation is applied in various industries or fields.
These innovations are characterised by their versatility and can be used in different processes to generate solutions and perform tasks. They are often very flexible and adaptable to meet the requirements and needs of different industries. These innovations are characterised by their versatility and can be used in different processes to generate solutions and perform tasks. They are often very flexible and adaptable to meet the requirements and needs of different industries. As a result, they can increase efficiency, improve communication and promote innovation when used in different processes.
The strength of Deep Tech innovations lies in overcoming barriers between different areas and establishing connections. In this way, they help different sectors to learn and benefit from each other. This is becoming increasingly important in our networked world in order to overcome challenges and exploit opportunities that go beyond individual industries.
Austria is not only the leader in various deep tech innovations, but there are also numerous other reasons why Austria is the perfect location for your company. An outstanding quality of life, an attractive research location and great market potential are just some of the factors that make the country an ideal location. for both your company and your employees.
Artificial intelligence –
this is what tomorrow’s
economy will look like
Artificial intelligence is a key area of successful business operations, something Austria recognised a long time ago. As an important example of Deep Tech innovations, it also has the potential to change many areas of society. Companies in Austria offer an optimal basis for the development and innovative use of AI in various sectors, for example Industry 4.0.
Austrian firms are not only developers but also users of innovative AI technologies. The country has pitted itself against international competition for decades, both in terms of production and service. For this reason, it has always relied extensively on digitalisation. This is now paying off also with regard to artificial intelligence.
Research on AI has a long tradition in Austria, for example in the fields of logical systems, neuronal networks, robotics and systems capable of understanding speech. Naturally, Industry 4.0 represents the top priority, for instance in predictive maintenance. The most important AI research fields in Austria include robotics and autonomous driving, in addition to knowledge-based and learning systems. Austrian research has made pattern recognition, image and video analysis as well as language-processing systems a top priority.
Cyber security
Security in the digital world
Cybersecurity is of great importance for the economy and overall prosperity and Austria is making it a clear priority: the state, industry and science are taking on the deep tech challenge together. Austria has made it a clear-cut priority. The government, industry and academic are working together to meet this challenge. Some 35 companies in Austria currently offer advanced cybersecurity solutions for the public sector, critical infrastructure, industry and companies. The growth rate is 6-9% up until 2023.
The fact that Austria is internationally recognised as a high-tech location for cybersecurity is also due to the know-how of the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT) and its reputation in the European research landscape. The research and business communities are setting new standards with Austrian IT security solutions, contributing towards preserving future global competitiveness as well.
Quantum technology
Innovation from Austria
Austria is one of the top international business locations for quantum research and technology. In order to strengthen its position in this future-oriented field, the Austrian Federal Government supports research and development as a means of unfolding new potential applications. Accordingly, the country in its role as a leading voice in quantum technology will increasingly become the go-to business location for future-oriented companies.
The most recent example is the newly-opened research laboratory in Villach, where Infineon tests industrially produced quantum chips in short cycles, namely days instead of weeks. This represents a huge step on the path to developing and producing marketable quantum computers. However, it must be noted that quantum research has a long tradition in the country: The Austrian quantum physicist Anton Zeilinger who lives and conducts research in Austria has long been a famous figure in the scientific community for his experiments on quantum entanglement.
