Austria's digitalisation projects
A clear mission: simplifying the future
Austria wants to and will make targeted use of digitalisation to further develop its competitiveness, innovative strength, prosperity, climate protection, health and cultural mediation - across all departments with business, science and society.
Artificial intelligence
To actively harness the potential of artificial intelligence, Austria established the 'Advisory Board for Artificial Intelligence' as an advisory body.
This board addresses the opportunities, challenges, risks, and impacts of AI applications. On 28 February 2024, the Federal Chancellery (BKA) and the Ministry of Finance (BMF) introduced the AI Advisory Board, comprised of eleven experts who will advise the Federal Government on all matters related to artificial intelligence.
