Business Upper Austria is the location agency of Upper Austria. We are a driver of innovation and the first point of contact for domestic and foreign companies, offering them tailor-made solutions for their investment and innovation projects. We play an active role in shaping economic and research policy.
Bio-based materials are playing an increasingly important role in Upper Austria’s industrial landscape. Business Upper Austria addresses this topic with a holistic approach, fostering collaboration between industry, policymakers, and research institutions. Beyond initiating technological projects, we also host a wide range of information and networking events that explore the regulatory, legal and financial frameworks enabling these technological changes. These activities are complemented by our tailored services, such as innovation support and funding advisory.
Our focus on bio-based raw materials covers a variety of materials and applications, such as natural fibres and wood. We promote the development of sustainable products, circular economy concepts and innovative applications that combine resource efficiency, climate protection and regional value creation. Thanks to our diverse cluster activities, we support companies across a range of industries – from food and building innovation to automotive and plastics to mechatronics – and accompany them in the implementation of future-oriented bioeconomy solutions.
