WKO President Mahrer at Bachmann
A ‘flying’ visit with depth!
Feldkirch, November 9, 2021
Today, WKO President Mr. Mahrer, accompanied by Mr. Metzler (President of the WKO Vorarlberg) and Mr. Kessler (Director of Wirtschaftsbund Vorarlberg), paid a visit to Bachmann electronic.
Such visits are part of the standard repertoire of the WKO representation, but nowadays the direct exchange between the WKO and companies is more important than ever.
The fact that Bachmann electronic, as a "hidden champion" with more than 500 employees and an international orientation, is an important discussion partner was once again demonstrated during this visit.
Through the on-site visits to businesses, the active dialogue and the exchange of ideas about ‘burning’ topics such as the Covid situation and its influence on companies, as well as the immense shortage of skilled workers, the WKO acquires a better understanding of the reality of the business world.
The goal of the business enterprises and the WKO must be to join forces on such essential issues and to approach such challenges from a common perspective, in order to come up with the best possible solutions.
During the visit, the WKO representatives gained a deep insight into our company’s plans for international development, especially in our core sector, renewable energies and in particular wind energy.
Bachmann CEO, Bernhard Zangerl, clearly explained what the expectations of companies are from the WKO and clarified the areas where its support, as an economic driver, would be absolutely essential.
Thus, what started as a ‘flying’ visit, turned into a visit with depth and insights into the current situation with clear requirements and demands.
Bachmann electronic would like to thank all visitors and is looking forward to the continued active dialogue with the WKO and the Wirtschaftsbund Vorarlberg.
