ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA’s Budapest office landed in Vienna this afternoon (20 November) with a 35-company delegation timed to coincide with International Mobility Days. The two-day “Incoming Mission” focuses on electric-vehicle components, smart logistics and autonomous-bus pilots along the twin-city axis between Győr and Vienna.
Hungary is Austria’s fourth-largest trading partner, and cross-border supply chains are tightening as OEMs localise to meet EU battery-content rules. Delegates include Magyar Suzuki, bus maker Kravtex and several AI mapping start-ups keen to plug into Austria’s research clusters. B2B matchmaking will explore joint bids for Connecting Europe Facility grants aimed at greening the TEN-T network.

For mobility managers the visit matters: cross-border commuter traffic is already recovering to 105 % of pre-pandemic levels, and companies foresee a rise in short-term assignments once the Koralm high-speed line reduces Graz-Vienna rail times in December 2025. The delegation will also test the new biometric Entry/Exit System kiosks at Vienna Airport, generating feedback before the full Schengen roll-out next April.
ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA says it will replicate the model with Slovak and Croatian missions in early 2026, underscoring Vienna’s bid to remain the CEE region’s business-mobility hub.
