HUMAN.TECHNOLOGY. STYRIA

We are the hub of a cluster of around 150 Styrian companies that work for human health.
We act as a hub for contacts, know-how and information for this community.
Our goal is to create economic added value for the cluster community, to further develop the strengths of the region in a targeted manner and thus to improve the international visibility of the location.

CLUSTER COMMUNITY

“People come together when they talk” – intensive communication and networking across sectors and institutions is actually a living Styrian tradition.

As the heart of this very dynamic and heterogeneous Styrian life science community, we bring them all together: representatives from politics and administration, education and research, health and care, digital and analogue service providers, small, medium and large companies.
