Silicon Austria Labs (SAL) is Austria's top re­search center for elec­tronic based systems (EBS). At three loca­tions (Graz, Villach, Linz), around 270 employees are working on future-oriented solu­tions for indus­trial produc­tion, health, energy, mobility, safety and more. SAL brings together key players from industry, science and re­search and thus valu­able exper­tise and know-how and conducts coop­er­a­tive, appli­ca­tion-oriented re­search along the EBS value chain. Coop­er­a­tive projects (in accor­dance with Euro­pean state aid law) are co-financed by SAL and enable a fast and unbu­reau­cratic project start. SAL is thus shaping the high-tech loca­tion Austria and Europe and devel­oping the future - "UNFOLD THE FUTURE".
