Digital transformation in Upper Austria

Digital transformation has an impact on almost all areas of life. It provides the basis for the development of the latest technologies and is therefore a turning point for Upper Austrian business and industry. Digitalization is rethinking existing value chains, which can change entire business models. Data-based decisions and servitization are becoming increasingly important in companies and the use of new technologies in data-driven companies also has an impact on existing forms of organization. A basic requirement for networking machines and processes is the acceptance of the new technologies by users. Topics such as data security and control over one's own data are therefore becoming increasingly relevant.

Objectives of digital transformation

  • Generating knowledge and creating value through the use of data, raising the innovative potential of new technologies, such as big data, artificial intelligence, etc. in priority fields of action, and transfer of new technologies into application
  • Achieving a pioneering position in human-centered artificial intelligence and setting quality standards in validating AI systems with regard to safety and reliability in use

For us, leading Upper Austria stronger through digital transformation means:

  • We create awareness of the need for digital transformation in companies.
  • We rethink existing business models and make decisions based on trustworthy data using new tools and technologies.
  • We focus on creating and using secure and correct software and hardware systems.
