The Linz Institute of Technology (LIT) brings the JKU's technological creativity under one roof.
How can we meet future challenges in a digital world? How can expertise, knowledge, and innovation processes be designed more effectively and more efficiently in a small country such as Austria?

- Artifical Intelligence
- Robot Intelligence
- IT Security
- Information Technology

At the Interface of Research and the Economy
The JKU's new LIT Open Innovation Center will be "the" place in Upper Austria to transfer of state-of-the-art university expertise to society in general and to businesses and companies. The LIT OIC serves as a modern collaboration platform where interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research groups can exchange information to advance and drive technology.
Knowledge Transfer
In addition to creating a positive atmosphere designed to support and foster collaboration and cooperation, scientists, academics and researchers have an opportunity to transfer knowledge by actively talking and communicating about their respective current research at a number of internal and external events.
Open Space Creates Research Collaboration
In addition to new or more involved (research) collaboration efforts with and among existing partner companies, the interdisciplinary exchange process fosters active start-up & spin-off companies.
