The Austrian Economic Chamber (Wirtschaftskammer Wien) is one of Austria’s largest education providers and focuses on business-oriented, hands-on teaching and learning. However, this also means creating optimal local conditions and providing an infrastructure for the future so that you can benefit from an intellectual environment that encourages you to perform at your best.

To make that happen, the campus at Währinger Gürtel is being expanded and reconstructed into a modern educational location for Vienna’s business community. As a result, the educational institutions already on site, such as FHWien der WKW and WIFI Wien, as well as the newly added MODUL University Vienna, will be provided with a modern and successful educational institution.

The planned reconstruction starts in summer of 2021 and continues until May 2023. The advantages of the reconstruction are obvious: the expanded and optimally used teaching space and state-of-the-art technical facilities will create a win-win situation for teachers and students.

Every year, more than 80,000 people benefit from the education offered by the Austrian Economic Chambers. This is important in order to support companies and being able to offer them well-trained specialists. On the other hand, it is also important to train future entrepreneurs and provide them with the theoretical foundation for their careers.

To guarantee the success of Vienna as a business location it is important to leverage educational resources and thus to promote talent, but also to challenge it. By bringing together the educational institutions at Währinger Gürtel, an essential step is taken to ensure the competitiveness and attractiveness of Vienna as a business location.
