Discover technology

The Vienna Business Agency has undertaken a diverse range of initiatives to help people to become more aware of and to experience research on a day-to-day basis.  The goal is to inform the public about new technology and achievements in research and, in particular, to create enthusiasm among the scientists and researchers of tomorrow.

Workshops for school groups

Ideenattacke – 3rd and 4th grades

The Ideenattacke workshop gives primary school children the opportunity to spend a morning exploring the world of science. Students discover the significance of research and innovation and encounter exciting examples in Vienna. Children spend the research period learning:

  • to draw connections between terms like “research” and “innovation” and actual aspects of their everyday lives
  • to recognise the relevance of research and innovation for our society
  • about different professions in the sciences
  • and, last but not least, to be inventive

Ideenattacke workshops will begin in April 2021, and will be held at the Vienna Business Agency.

Future Health – 7th and 8th grades

Future Health workshops introduce students to Viennese success stories in biotechnology and medical engineering. Students discover which professions in this sector have the best prospects and what a working day really looks like. Workshops conclude with an opportunity for the young participants to get creative and invent their own medical product.

Future Health workshops are designed to stimulate interest in less well-known but very promising professions at the interface of health and technology, and to support young people in exploring relevant career paths.

Green Tech – 7th and 8th grades

The concept of GreenTech covers innovations and technologies in environmental protection and sustainability. GreenTech workshops introduce students to a range of “green” innovations in Vienna in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals. A career guidance package offers the workshop participants a comprehensive choice of educational and career options – all with great prospects. Students then use their new-found knowledge to get creative and develop their own sustainable solutions.

These interactive career guidance workshops raise awareness of sustainability and inspire young people to actively take control of their futures through their choice of career.
