I am the Editor-in-Chief of BusinessAustria.org. As an expat myself, I understand how challenging it can be to stay informed about local business trends, events, and opportunities. That’s why BusinessAustria was created—to support expats living in Austria, help Austrian companies expand internationally, and guide non-Austrian businesses in successfully entering the Austrian market.
Feel free to contact me anytime—I’d be happy to connect.
