About Landeck
Sitting in the state of Tyrol, Landeck is the capital city of the district of the same name in Austria. It's snuggled into the valley where the Inn River and the Sanna tributary meet, between the Lechtal Alps in the north and the Otzal and the Samnaun Alps in the south. The area was an important transport route from Tyrol to the Arlberg massif and in the southern region, from the Reschen Pass to the Vinschgau region in Italy's South Tyrol. A city with a history flowing back to Roman times and through the Middle Ages, Landeck was the site of the stronghold of the Landeck Castle from the 13th Century on. A market town at the beginning of the 1900s, it was granted town privileges in 1923 and was used as a military base for Austrian mountain troops before the Second World War. Today this Alpine city has coworking venues opening in its streets to cater to its locals that don't wish to leave home, plus the occasional wandering nomad with a laptop in tow.
Landeck is no tech hub per se, but Austria is doing everything it can to support and nurture a startup ecosystem. Austria is seen as an "emerging hub" where international young companies can have a dynamic ecosystem where plenty of exciting things are happening in the financial area, as well as the political arena, for supporting startups. The country wishes to become a meeting point for innovation and progress for entrepreneurial types. It's alluded that the Austrian tech scene is young, fresh, mobile and attractive, with one of the best qualities of life available in the world. It's offering a great location, a brainy workforce and funding support plus well-developed channels of know-how transfer between companies and the scientific community. With this on the table so to speak, many high-tech startups are beginning to look at Austria with fresh eyes.
Austria has everything to offer the fledgling startup, the creative entrepreneur or the inventive soul who likes to sit by a fire slurping on beef soup in between doing bouts of work in a coworking venue.
