City of production & manufacturing
Vienna is alive with production and manufacturing sites that are not only within its borders, but in the middle of the city. From tech giant Siemens to leading sweets manufacturer Manner, the city is home to high-tech and additive manufacturing operations as well as traditional Viennese companies with roots stretching back centuries. These companies preserve Vienna's proud production heritage whilst driving innovation, exporting top quality products around the world.
The Vienna production hub is playing its part in the climate revolution by embracing smart manufacturing, industrial automation processes and new production design concepts that enable high-tech industries (and the top jobs they offer) to fit into existing production spaces - avoiding unnecessary soil sealing. Highly-skilled industry 4.0 technologists and creative artisans take advantage of top local infrastructure and strong support from the city and surrounding region. From sustainable logistics to smart factories, green production is here to stay. For businesses in the tech sector, the Technology Centre Seestadt offers flexible, state-of-the-art business premises. Nearby, the Gewerbehof Seestadt stands out as a space that isn't only highly energy-efficient, but that also offers artisans, tradespeople, and manufacturers all the benefits of an ultramodern vertical production facility in the heart of an up-and-coming neighbourhood.
