ASCR-FUNDED PROJECTS

WORKING TOGETHER FOR EFFICIENT RESEARCH

As a research project with public sector partners and shareholders, ASCR is subject to high standards with regard to cost effectiveness. In order to make the best possible use of synergy effects, ASCR also conducts its research within the framework of projects financed by national or European funds. Collaborations with other partners such as the Vienna University of Technology or the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT) ensure that ASCR’s specialist expertise is not limited to specific research questions and can be applied to a broad spectrum of issues.
