AT&S Bags First Place at “Austria’s Leading Companies” in Styria
November 18, 2015 | AT&SEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Last night the economically strongest companies of Styria were awarded for the 17th time at the “Austria’s Leading Companies” gala at List Halle in Graz. This established competition is also considered the “Oscar of Austrian business”.
AT&S won first place in the Styrian ranking in the category “Big Player” (companies with annual revenue of more than € 50 million).
The decisive factor for the rating is the “hard currency” of business life, i.e., key financials like revenue growth, profit margin, cash flow and liquidity. Last year AT&S had reached third place. The companies were rated by PwC and KSV, and Wirtschaftsblatt was the media partner.
Andreas Gerstenmayer was pleased with the award: “This result reflects our clear high-end positioning in the market. The basis is a consistent long-term strategy and above all highly qualified and enthusiastic employees who give their best for our customers every day. I can only repeat again that winning this prize is not just a distinction for AT&S as a company, but a recognition of the achievements of all our committed employees.”
Next Monday the “Austria’s Leading Companies” winners for Austria will be announced in Vienna.

The Marketing Minute: Marketing With Layers
10/15/2025 | Brittany Martin -- Column: The Marketing MinuteMarketing to a technical audience is like crafting a multilayer board: Each layer serves a purpose, from the surface story to the buried detail that keeps everything connected. At I-Connect007, we’ve learned that the best marketing campaigns aren’t built linearly; they’re layered. A campaign might start with a highly technical resource, such as an in-depth article, a white paper, or a podcast featuring an engineer delving into the details of a process. That’s the foundation, the substance that earns credibility.

It’s Only Common Sense: Stop Whining About the Market—Outwork It
10/06/2025 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseWhenever the market hiccups or the industry cycle dips, I hear the same tired chorus: “The market is down. Customers aren’t buying. What can we do? We just have to wait it out.” Nonsense. If you think that by showing up, opening your doors, and waiting for the economy to smile kindly upon you, that success will follow, you are in the wrong business. Worse yet, you’re living in the wrong mindset. Most people don’t want to hear the truth that winners find business in down cycles. Losers blame the economy.
