go-international: Growing Global Success for Austrian Companies

Austrian Support for Entering Global Markets

Our Program

Since 2003, we have supported Austrian companies in growing their sales in global markets. We are the Austrian Federal Ministry of Labour and Economy (BMAW) and the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber (WKÖ).

Branding Austria as a reliable and trustworthy partner, we offer member companies effective ways to promote themselves. Exporters from Austria utilize our insight, tools and leads to focus on their best opportunities abroad.

Austrian exporters can receive direct financial support from go-international to meet targeted goals. All programs are managed through the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber’s International Department and our trade promotion organization, ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA.

ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA is headquartered in Vienna, Austria. Representatives in all nine Austrian states provide a local interface for our 100 international offices in 70 countries, totaling approximately 800 employees.  

What’s in It for Me as an Austrian Exporter? 

go-international has four main objectives. Running through 2023, our current program positions Austria’s strongest sectors in dynamic global regions. Austria is exporting education and services, strengthening technology networks and promoting research and innovation through go-international with these objectives:
