For the improved application of technology in cities

INNOSPIRIT is a cooperation project between Austria and Hungary, that promotes the usage of available technologies and the transfer of knowledge between participating cities and regions.

INNOSPIRIT is a project that aims to improve the use of available technologies in cities and regions. One of its goals is to provide a clearly organised framework for the management of necessary know-how on urban technologies. INNOSPIRIT is a cross-border co-operation project between Hungary and Austria, funded by the European Union under the European Territorial Cooperation.

The project runs from January 2013 to June 2014, with TINA Vienna Urban Technologies & Strategies GmbH as the lead partner. Further Austrian partners involved are Fachhochschulstudiengänge Burgenland GmbH and Bad Radkersburg Beteiligungsgesellschaft m.b.H. Pannon Business Network is the Hungarian project partner.

The project aims to optimise and harmonise the use of technologies and technology transfer in the participating cities, to develop and implement appropriate new methods and services, to analyse the use of technologies for certain tasks of city management, and to develop potential follow-up projects. Furthermore, at least four transferable “good practice” cases should be presented as part of the project.
