EDITORIAL SUPPORTING PILLAR OF AUSTRIA‘S PROSPERITY Austria‘s dynamic export driven economy has proven to be crucial for Austria‘s future growth and enabled sustainable prosperity throughout the last decade. In today‘s globalised world, much of the attention has focused on emerging markets, as Austrian companies are benefi ting from widening their pool of trading partners and the signifi cant potential as they engage in long-lasting business relationships. VICE-CHANCELLOR REINHOLD MITTERLEHNER FEDERAL MINISTER OF SCIENCE, RESEARCH AND ECONOMY JUNE 2016 03 © BMWFW For this reason, despite an ongoing global crisis and a challenging economic environment, Austrian export sales reached a new record level, amounting to 131.55 billion euros in 2015. The necessary impetus has been provided by the redirection of the „go international“ campaign led by the Federal Ministry of Economy and implemented by the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber. Export diversifi cation is the key to our new strategy. In today‘s globalised world, much of the attention has focused on emerging markets, as Austrian companies are benefi ting from widening their pool of trading partners and the signifi cant potential as they engage in long-lasting business relationships. It is precisely in these markets, where Austrian companies see plenty of opportunities due to an increasing demand for their valuable expertise, state-of-the-art products and innovative technologies. This relates in particular to green products as well as knowledge-based services. Together with the commitment and experience of Austrian businesses and entrepreneurs and as the share of Austrian exports to non-European markets continues to grow, I am confi dent that our success story will be continued.
