Who may become partner?

No matter if you are a start-up, SME, industry player, or a research and educational institution, as long as your focus aligns with the SILICON ALPS core technologies (Electronic and Software Based Systems) and the resulting application fields and solutions, you are welcome. Although the SILICON ALPS region mainly involves the wonderful states of Carinthia and Styria, this business networking group is always open to other Austrian regions where mutual benefit can be achieved. Our networking opportunities are open to partners who, within the framework of their cooperative activities, contribute to increasing the added value in Carinthia and Styria and to advancing the development of SILICON ALPS technology topics. Business networking events within our network are designed to help you build and strengthen business relationships that foster innovation and growth.
