Innovations by the Manufacturing Sector in Vienna
Vienna's international role will largely depend on whether or not its manufacturing sector will be able to exploit the new opportunities that result from the opening of the East and the process of European integration. The formation of a competitive knowledge and organisation base and a movement toward flexible specialisation would greatly improve Vienna's economic structure. Whether this goal will be achieved will depend to a great extent on the innovative capacity of Vienna's manufacturing sector, a question that has been analysed with the help of WIFO's technology and innovation survey.
