High Tech from Carinthia
Bonifaz Kaufmann, who has been with the company since the day it opened its doors in Carinthia, and was thus the very first manager at the Lakeside Park site, recalls: “In 2017 the limited availability of skilled labour at our locations in Gdansk, Detroit, Barcelona and in Linz where our headquarter is based, motivated us to look around for a new, additional location so that we could continue to grow. We evaluated all the alternatives very carefully and in the end Klagenfurt emerged as the clear front runner.” Although one of the early favourites for the new site had been Silicon Valley in California, the excellent quality of Austrian engineering offered a far better alternative for Dynatrace. “Establishing and expanding the site in Carinthia was absolutely the right decision”, says Thomas Grassauer. head of the Klagenfurt Lab since 2019. “Carinthia is an excellent location for world-beating technological developments and know-how.”
