FOSTER Project Team Conducted a Study Visit to Austria!

Within the framework of the FOSTER II Project, the study visit conducted to Vienna, Austria, with the KOSGEB Delegation has been successfully concluded with fruitful discussions.

This study visit served as an invaluable opportunity to conduct strategic dialogues with Austrian national authorities and international institutions on key areas, such as SME support mechanisms, entrepreneurship ecosystems, financing of innovation, R&D initiatives, and inclusive employment policies.

We express our sincere gratitude to the representatives of WIFI/WKO (Austrian Economic Chambers), FFG (Austrian Research Promotion Agency), ABA Work in Austria (Service Agency for Residence), ICMPD (International Centre for Migration Policy Development), ACR (Austrian Cooperative Research), and the World Bank Group for their kind hospitality and for sharing their profound insights during the sessions.
