On March 6th and 7th, the Salzburg Exhibition Center was all about people, technology, and the future when the renowned Innovation Platform salz21 salz21 opened its doors. This Technology and Innovation Forum provided a unique opportunity to shape the future of our economic area and discuss the most important issues of our time. 

Salzburg Research was also present with a stand and several events:

On both days, we presented insights into current research and innovation projects at our stand in Hall 1. On the Main Stage on Day 1, Cornelia Zankl was a panelist on the topic of the future of mobility. Elisabeth Häusler and Siegfried Reich presented the new COMET project “Digital Motion Next,” a successor to the COMET project “Digital Motion in Sports, Fitness, and Well-Being.“. On the second day, the four Austrian European Digital Innovation Hubs (EDIH) presented themselves. 

EDIH Austria Business Talks

As a coordinator of the European Digital Innovation Hubs “Crowd in Motion“, Salzburg Research organized the EDIHN Austria Business Talks 2024. During the event, it was shown how cooperation with EDIHs works best and what specific practical examples look like. 

On the main stage of salz21, this year’s EDIH Business Talks were opened by initiators from business, research, and politics. Afterwards, the coordinators of the Austrian EDIHs gave an overview of the work of the hubs and provided information on how companies and public institutions can implement innovation projects with the hubs easily and without great administrative effort.
