AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH

As Austria's largest research and technology organisation for applied research, we are dedicated to make substantial contributions to solving the major challenges of our time, climate change and digitisation. To achieve our goals, we rely on our specific research, development and technology competencies, which are the basis of our commitment to excellence in all areas. With our open culture of innovation and our motivated, international teams, we are working to position AIT as Austria's leading research institution at the highest international level and to make a positive contribution to the economy and society.

At AIT we are committed to excellent research and its implementation for the benefit of society. We create economic and social value by founding spin-offs. This is why we promote an entrepreneurial mindset, guiding and inspiring our researchers from early on to consider spin-offs as appealing career opportunities. Our Unit Business and Start up Coaching provides comprehensive support and coaching to the spin-off teams. The dedicated entrepreneurship program ensures supervision by a network of internal and external experts throughout all stages of foundation process and beyond.
