At the beginning of the 16th century, Emperor Maximilian I. made the city at the centre of the north-south and east-west axis his residence and by doing so created the conditions for a thriving economic and cultural life. Tradespeople appreciated the ideal location of Innsbruck and used Brenner as the lowest Alpine pass. Connections to important transport routes established the basis for Innsbruck’s rise as a centre of business, trade, conventions and tourism. The historical names of the city, »Oenipons« and »Anspruggen« make it clear that bridges are a part of the past and future of the Tyrolean capital. The city’s people and business owners knew how to use the favourable topographical and scenic conditions to their advantage and make Innsbruck a flourishing centre. Milestones such as the opening of the university, the connection to the railroad, and the opening of the airport have supported this development. The identity of the city is strongly influenced by cultural understanding. Today, Innsbruck is an international meeting place and has laid claim to a leading role in the field of early music.

The main priority lies in maintaining and creating of qualified jobs. This goal is achieved through internationalisation and efforts to strengthen the dynamics of the growth region. Both the structure of small and medium-sized businesses as well as the position as a centre for services should be maintained. The education and research capacities of the city, in particular the university, should be used increasingly to the advantage of economic-related research. Innsbruck is interested in intensifying co-operation with nearby towns and, in so doing, create momentum. The city and its business people have been using the advantages of the geographically advantageous location between the strong economic regions of southern Germany and northern Italy for as long as can be remembered.

The Republic of Austria and the State of Tyrol provide financial support, bonuses, grants and subsidies as well as support in processes related to public authorities, which are conducted in a concentrated and therefore time-saving manner. The Tyrolean Foundation for the Future is the central contact point for new businesses and has as a service organisation of the state the task of convincing entrepreneurs of the advantages of the location, supporting business develop- ment, intensifying knowledge and technology transfer, and encouraging on-going education and training. In particular, those business which have a significant impact on the creation of value, employment and growth are supported. 18 % Northern America The business-friendliness and the ideal conditions have created a climate in which businesses and their employees feel good.

Innsbruck Tourism, with its 25 member towns is one of the largest tourism organisations in Austria, with 2.1 million overnight stays in 2005. In addition, approximately 4 million day visitors came to the city. Tyrol’s tourism with its dynamic regions together with the capital city of Innsbruck as the centre are responsible for an above-average sports and leisure activities infrastructure. In Innsbruck numerous trade fair events as well as congresses contribute significantly to the success. How ideally the Congress Center is positioned inter- nationally can be seen in the awards it received in the last five years: in 2001 the Congress Center received the internationally renowned »Apex Award«, in 2005 second place, in 2000 third place. The Tyrolean meeting and event centre is, after Vienna, the second largest in Austria. INNSBRUCK’S CONGRESS CENTER IS ONE OF THE BEST EVENT AND CONGRESS CENTRES IN EUROPE.

In total, approximately 24,000 students are currently studying at the two universities. As Austria’s third largest university town, Innsbruck has relationships with institutes throughout the world. The results flow directly into research and business. The positive environment was crucial in the past for the awarding of the Nobel Prize to four researchers at the University of Innsbruck. Tyrol plays a leading role in many fields, such as quantum physics and medicine. The basis for this are the excellent educational opportunities Innsbruck offers, at a level that is beyond the Austrian average.

  • Baroque Architecture in the Former Habsburg Residences of Graz and Innsbruck
    EMBODIMENTS OF POWER? Baroque Architecture in the Former Habsburg Residences of Graz and Innsbruck Mark Hengerer Introduction Having overcome the political, religious, and economic crisis of the Thirty Years' War, princes in central Europe started to reconstruct their palaces and build towns as monuments of power. Baroque residences such as Karlsruhe combine the princely palace with the city, and even the territory, and were considered para­ digms of rule in the age of absolutism.' In Austrian Vienna, both the nobility and the imperial family undertook reshaping the city as a baroque residence only after the second Ottoman siege in 1683. Despite the Reichsstif of Emperor Karl VI, the baroque parts of the Viennese Hofburg and the baroque summer residence of Sch6nbrunn were executed as the style itself was on the wane, and were still incomplete in the Enlightenment period.2 It may be stated, then, that the com­ plex symbolic setting of baroque Viennese architecture reveals the complex power relations between the House of Habsburg and the nobility, who together formed a SOft of "diarchy," so that the Habsburgs did not exercise absolutist rule. 3 Ad­ ditionally, it cannot be overlooked that the lower nobility and burghers, though hardly politically influential, imitated the new style, which was of course by no means protected by any sort of copyright.4 For all these reasons, reading baroque cities as embodiments of powers is prob­ lematic. Such a project is faced with a phenomenon situated between complex actual power relations and a more or less learned discourse on princely power and 10 architecture (which was part of the art realm as well), and princes, noblemen, and citizens inspired to build in the baroque style.

  • Discovering Oneself Through Singing She Grew up on a Farm in The
    Discovering Oneself through Singing She grew up on a farm in the Hausruckviertel district of Upper Austria and the fact that she nevertheless found her way into the world of music is indirectly thanks to her father. “My Dad has a lovely tenor voice and often also sings solos in the church choir. We had an old piano standing around at home, a really ancient one that was used to give my siblings and me our first lessons.” When Michaela Selinger’s music teacher discovered her talent for sight-singing, he convinced her parents to send their daughter to the Linz Musikgymnasium (Academy of Music). “At the school, I formed part of Balduin Sulzer’s choir”, she explains. “The major pieces such as the Passions, Brahms’ Requiem or the Carmina Burana were mostly conducted by Franz Welser-Möst, who was previously one of Sulzer’s pupils.” Whilst in Linz, Michaela Selinger made a very important personal discovery: “Singing enabled me to find myself. When involved in music, when singing, I was completely at one with myself.” Song and Opera. Having successfully completed her “Matura” (the Austrian general qualification for university entrance), Selinger then went to Vienna to study Voice at the city’s University of Music, where she was, however, anything but happy: “I felt inhibited, on the one hand due to the abundance of strong voices from the East and on the other hand through the burden of tradition. I had to get out of there!” Basel was her next port of call, where she was taught by the famous singing teacher Kurt Widmer, to whom she owes several decisive developments in her career.
