Thematic Specialization-> in niches, no duplication:
Clusters, Technopoles, Technology Centres
No Thematic Specialization-> increase innovation capacities & competitiveness in general:Start-up centres, Internationalization, TIP, Financial support
Start-Ups, Spin-offs

Technopol Krems: medical biotechnologyfocus: „regenerative medicine“
e.g, extra corporal blood-purification, tissue engineering, cell therapy
Technopol Tulln: Agro- and environmental biotechnologyfocus: plant- and animal-production, (bio)-analytics, natural materials technology, environmental biotech
Technopol Wieselburg bioenergy, agricultural and food technology
Technopol Wr. Neustadt: Medical and Material technologiesfocus: materials, sensors, tribology, medical-technology, surfaces

BSC – Balanced Score Card
Which economic objectives do we want to achieve by 2013?
What do we need to do for our customers and in the market in order to reach these economic objectives?
Which processes do we require to achieve excellence and to reach our customer, market and economic objectives?
What must we learn and where must we innovate in order to achieve our process, market and economic objectives?
