		Upper Austria sales office has new location

	In January, the sales office for Upper Austria took up residence in the Hagenberg software park. “More than 100 sqm of floor space leave sufficient room for development over the coming years”, said Klaus Wurm, who has been managing the Upper Austria sales region for the last 3 years.

	With the software park, Hagenberg, situated not far from Linz, has created the most dynamic and most successful technology center in Austria. So far, 5 university institutes, 1 competence center, 7 university of applied science courses and 30 companies have relocated to the park, and the second stage of this ambitious project is imminent. Klaus Wurm described the benefits of the new location: "From the synergies of economy and research, Beckhoff Austria expects benefits in the positioning of our company name, as well as for finding new customers. It opens up a range of co-operation options". The sales office was operating as a "home office", and was simply no longer able to meet the increased demand. Upper Austria is the region with the strongest economy in the country and is responsible for a significant proportion of the total turnover of the Austrian Beckhoff subsidiary. The move to representative office premises offers the opportunity to carry out customer training on site, "but it also opens up the option of employing new staff", added sales engineer Klaus Wurm.
