International exchange on research, innovation and sustainability in Pinkafeld

As part of the Austria Leadership Programme (ALPS), organised by the Federal Ministry for European and International Affairs (BMEIA), we had the pleasure of welcoming a high-level international delegation to Pinkafeld.

Marcus Keding, Managing Director of Forschung Burgenland, guided the group through the Lowergetikum and Energetikum research buildings, as well as the laboratory block. This provided an opportunity to showcase research activities in the fields of agent-based AI systems in building services engineering, hydrogen-based energy systems and the circular economy.

Christian Heschl and Werner Stutterecker from Burgenland University of Applied Sciences, along with Michael Peinsipp and Christian Seidl from Forschung Burgenland, provided fascinating insights into their work and current projects.

Since 2016, the programme has been bringing international decision-makers, executives and opinion leaders from the worlds of politics, public administration, business, the media and culture to Austria to learn about the country as a centre for business, innovation and research.

As part of the Austrian Leadership Programme (ALPS), organised by the Ministry of European and International Affairs, Forschung Burgenland presented its research activities to senior executives from 28 countries in Pinkafeld.

Michael Peinsipp provided insights into his current research projects on the circular economy.
