New partnership between Silicon Alps Cluster GmbH and the Software Internet Cluster to bundle forces in the field of digitization and electronic based systems.
In December 2020, the partnership between the Silicon Alps Cluster (SAC), the Austrian Electronics Based System Cluster and the Software Internet Cluster (SIC) was sealed. A contract was signed and first project ideas were exchanged.
Both networks are based in the south of Austria and will now work together on future visions and projects, especially in the area of digitization and the shortage of skilled workers, in order to give the region an additional boost. In addition, joint activities on topics such as the integration of start-ups, future trends and developments are planned in order to create an added value for the partner organizations of both networks.
Together, the Software Internet Cluster and the Silicon Alps Cluster form a network of approx. 200 organizations (approx. 55 SIC, approx. 135 SAC). These are mainly distributed all over Austria. An expansion of the network beyond the borders is to be pushed in the coming months and years. “All SIC members are now also involved in the activities of the Silicon Alps Cluster and can use offers of both worlds. This is a clear added value for our members,” says SIC CEO Marc Gfrerer, pleased about the cooperation.
The exchange of knowledge and experience between the partners as well as innovative and joint action points will therefore help to bundle forces, generate new ideas and make the existing technical and professional excellence more visible in order to advance innovative projects and the region.
