Areas of Excellence
RFID & wireless IoT
For years, Carinthia and Styria have been recognized as RFID hotspots – more than 50 percent of the produced RFID chips come from the SILICON ALPS region.
The term „wireless technologies“ refers to application areas such as Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), the growing field of „wireless Internet of Things“ (wireless IoT), „NFC,“ and „Ultra-Wideband.“
In the „Area of Excellence RFID and wireless IoT,“ the focus is primarily on new use cases and the question of how these technologies can optimize business processes for building innovations of tomorrow. Whether in logistics, retail, or production, but also in the event and art sectors, tailor-made solutions are typically required based on experience.
The goal of the „Area of Excellence RFID & wireless IoT“ of the SILICON ALPS Cluster is to bring together „Wireless Experts“ from industry and research with users of wireless technologies. This collaboration results in co-creative and cooperative concepts and projects. A core group is intended to advise, support, and cooperate in the development and implementation of these projects. Through the work of partners in the Area of Excellence, the potentials of „Wireless Technologies“ and the region’s contribution to their developments become more visible – both locally and globally.
World-renowned brands like Mifare, Hitag, and Legic were born in southern Austria, where over 90% of the cluster partners‘ products are exported. As the „Internet of Things“ expands, the region is leveraging additional wireless technologies like NFC and Ultra-Wideband. The „Area of Excellence RFID and wireless IoT“ focuses on new use cases and optimizing various business processes, aiming to unite providers, researchers, and users for collaborative development and innovation.
My professional background lies in business administration with a focus on business development, project management, and finance. I have lived and studied in India, the USA, and the Philippines before moving to, working and settling in Austria. My previous experience ranges from working in international banking firms to project management in the metal industry, and business development/business innovation in the automotive, software and tech sectors. This has given me a well-rounded, global perspective on what makes businesses and concerns tick, and has allowed me to build a diverse network within Austria as well as internationally.
I believe that new technologies are the doors to a better life for us all, and innovation is the key that will help us to keep unlocking this door. My goal at the SILICON ALPS Cluster is to leverage my experience, my network, and my keen interest in revolutionary technologies/technological innovation to drive new projects, enable new cooperations, add value, expand horizons and elevate the electronic-based systems industry in the South of Austria.
