At the beginning of the 16 th century, Emperor Maximilian I. made the city at the centre of the north-south and east-west axis his residence and by doing so created the conditions for a thriving economic and cultural life. Tradespeople appreciated the ideal location of Innsbruck and used Brenner as the lowest Alpine pass. Connections to important transport routes established the basis for Innsbruck’s rise as a centre of business, trade, conventions and tourism. The historical names of the city, »Oenipons« and »Anspruggen« make it clear that bridges are a part of the past and future of the Tyrolean capital. The city’s people and business owners knew how to use the favourable topographical and scenic conditions to their advantage and make Innsbruck a flourishing centre. Milestones such as the opening of the university, the connection to the railroad, and the opening of the airport have supported this development. The identity of the city is strongly influenced by cultural understanding. Today, Innsbruck is an international meeting place and has laid claim to a leading role in the field of early music.

The main priority lies in maintaining and creating of qualified jobs. This goal is achieved through internationalisation and efforts to strengthen the dynamics of the growth region. Both the structure of small and medium-sized businesses as well as the position as a centre for services should be maintained. The education and research capacities of the city, in particular the university, should be used increasingly to the advantage of economic-related research. Innsbruck is interested in intensifying co-operation with nearby towns and, in so doing, create momentum. The city and its business people have been using the advantages of the geographically advantageous location between the strong economic regions of southern Germany and northern Italy for as long as can be remembered.

The Republic of Austria and the State of Tyrol provide financial support, bonuses, grants and subsidies as well as support in processes related to public authorities, which are conducted in a concentrated and therefore time-saving manner. The Tyrolean Foundation for the Future is the central contact point for new businesses and has as a service organisation of the state the task of convincing entrepreneurs of the advantages of the location, supporting business development, intensifying knowledge and technology transfer, and encouraging on-going education and training. In particular, those business which have a significant impact on the creation of value, employment and growth are supported. The business-friendliness and the ideal conditions have created a climate in which businesses and their employees feel good. World market leaders such as numerous small and medium-sized companies value the stable social conditions, the low rate of strikes, the tax advantages and, last but not least, the fascinating ambience of the Tyrolean Alps, which gives wings to creativity.

In addition, approximately 4 million day visitors came to the city. Tyrol’s tourism with its dynamic regions together with the capital city of Innsbruck as the centre are responsible for an above-average sports and leisure activities infrastructure. In Innsbruck numerous trade fair events as well as congresses contribute significantly to the success. How ideally the Congress Center is positioned internationally can be seen in the awards it received in the last five years: in 2001 the Congress Center received the internationally renowned »Apex Award«, in 2005 second place, in 2000 third place.

The founding of the Leopold-Franzens University Innsbruck goes back to the year of 1669 . The medical university has been independent since 2002 . In total, approximately 24,000 students are currently studying at the two universities. As Austria’s third largest university town, Innsbruck has relationships with institutes throughout the world. The results flow directly into research and business. The positive environment was crucial in the past for the awarding of the Nobel Prize to four researchers at the University of Innsbruck. Tyrol plays a leading role in many fields, such as quantum physics and medicine. The basis for this are the excellent educational opportunities Innsbruck offers, at a level that is beyond the Austrian average.

The rugged Northern Chain with its Hafelekar and Rumer Peak to the north and the gently ascending Patscherkofel and Glungezer to the south form the frame of the city, whose appeal comes from the combination of a mediaeval Old Town and the towering Alps. The pristine natural surroundings right at the city’s doorstep make it possible to quickly escape the stress of daily life and a variety of creative and relaxing leisure activities. Those who prefer can spend their lunch break in the mountains and the evening at one of the numerous cultural events. Entrepreneurs who have come to Innsbruck appreciate the advantages of the city. Those who work here during the day and know how to take advantage of the nearby Alpine region in their leisure time are inevitably committed and productive employees. It is thanks to the short distances and the manageable size – Innsbruck has approximately 115,000 residents – the excellent infrastructure and the available co-operation models that Innsbruck is an ideal location for business.

The Gothic Old Town with its Golden Roof, the symbol of Innsbruck, is the centre of the city. The historical Hofburg (Royal Residence) and the Imperial Tomb in the Hofkirche (Royal Chapel) are witnesses to a glorious past. The stylish and lovingly renovated buildings have received an exciting juxtaposition through contemporary architectural showcases. Among others, this includes the Bergisel Stadium, which was designed by Zaha Hadid, and the new City Hall, designed by the French architect Dominique Perrault, in which city administration offices and contemporary businesses and offices are united in an aesthetically pleasing whole. In the cultural field, the Tyrolean Symphony Orchestra and the productions at the Tyrolean State Theatre have received international acclaim, as have the Festival of Early Music, the International Dance Summer and the Easter Festival – Music of the Religions.

Innsbruck has developed into a recognised research and technology centre, thanks to its ideal conditions, business-friendliness and also the mentality of the Tyroleans, known for their handshake quality and persistence in decisive factors in life. In many field, such as quantum physics, Innsbruck is a leader. The Academy of Sciences has established a part of its new Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information in Innsbruck. The Tyrol is responsible for half of Austria’s gross value added in the pharmaceutical-biotechnical industry. Austria-wide, one third of all financial resources in this branch flow into the Tyrol. Positive for Innsbruck as a business location are the establishment of the alpS Competence Centre, which has the goal of creating new strategies, technologies and systems for improving natural disaster management as well as assessing current and future risk potential, and the Life Science Center for the fields of medical technology, biotechnology and pharmaceuticals.
