Upper Austria is one of the most attractive industrial regions in Europe, offering both high quality of life and environmental standards. Its impressive landscape, from the Alps and lakes to the rolling hills of the “Mühlviertel”, provides enthusiasts with magnificent opportunities for cycling, walking, climbing, water sports, tennis, riding, golf and winter sports. Moreover, Upper Austria is especially proud of its cultural life, which combines the traditional with the modern. The Ars Electronica and the Bruckner Festival are special calling cards in this connection.
Upper Austria is characterised by a qualified labour force, an efficient infrastructure, a tightly knit innovation network, quick official procedures, cross-frontier cultural cooperation and a stunning natural habitat. As a result of its central position in Europe, as well as its highly developed transport structure with a combination of roads, railways, airports and waterways, Upper Austria has developed into a leading Central European location.
Expatriates, consisting of leading figures from business and the sciences, who for a certain period have been posted to subsidiaries, e.g. in Upper Austria by their employers at global headquarters, contribute their know-how to a diversity of projects. These foreign experts are of major importance to Upper Austria as an economic and scientific location.
This information brochure offers expatriates in Upper Austria information relating to key data, politics, housing, shopping, infrastructure, education, health, lawyers, leisure and sport, economics, residence permits and the Cultural Capital Linz 2009.
