10 Core companies
We are an IT community of innovative minds: IT pioneers, technology leaders, university spin-offs and unicorns, startups, and SMEs. As diverse as we may be, we all share a deep passion for digital solutions.
Behind the DIGITAL MILE Linz are 10 core companies that launched this project—a unique initiative in Europe focused on cross-company collaboration—in 2019. We are all part of the mile that stretches from the Donaulände to the Port of Linz, where 110 highly innovative digitalization companies are headquartered. We do not see ourselves as competitors, but as a community with the goal of actively shaping and offering the best living and working environment for our employees—

The Linz location, nestled in the innovative region of Upper Austria, serves as the hub of our operations thanks to its long history of digital development.

Georg Spiesberger
Managing Director of TECH HARBOR
"The pressing issues that concern us as a company—and as a society—can only be solved by working together. On the one hand, because this is the only way to generate a critical mass of creative solutions; on the other hand, because it allows us to mobilize the necessary resources. When implementation is then carried out with passion and enthusiasm, it creates the incredible momentum we experience at DIGITAL MILE."

Christoph Knogler
CEO of KEBA
“KEBA is part of the Digital Mile because we live and breathe innovation (#AutomationByInnovation) and want to actively shape the digital future in Upper Austria and beyond. As a technology leader, we demonstrate how automation, digitalization, and smart solutions from Linz are changing the world. Especially in recent years, the topic of software has become increasingly important to us. Today, we increasingly see ourselves as a software company and are actively driving this development within the KEBA Group with the new business unit KEBA DIGITAL. That is precisely why we particularly value the networking opportunities within the Digital Mile—it facilitates exchange, inspires new ideas, and strengthens joint innovation.”
