Linz, November 21, 2024 – Industrial applications have diverse communication needs. While Industry 4.0 is about automation and digitization of the manufacturing processes, Industry 5.0 is about human-machine interaction using advanced technologies to create a more sustainable and human-centric manufacturing environment. This is where the fifth generation of mobile communication comes in: 5G can support highly diverse and heterogeneous environments for various applications. This is especially important for the demanding requirements of industrial applications, such as low latency or high data rate. 5GEARING aims to advance 5G technology in the Austrian manufacturing sector by integrating cutting-edge technologies such as edge computing, AI, and robotics to enhance productivity and innovation. The project partners also developed guidelines for deploying 5G systems at manufacturing sites and developing industrial applications. The overall goal is to accelerate digitization and automation, leading to increased productivity, agility, and energy efficiency.

"Due to the merger of K-Businesscom and CANCOM, it is particularly exciting to take on this new task and to accompany the integration process in the DACH region," explains Bernd Eder. "I have always perceived CANCOM Austria as a strong team. Our passion for technology, the hands-on mentality and the ability to respond to specific customer requirements characterize us. I am looking forward to being part of it again and helping to shape the digital future of our customers."

Austrian customers can now access the CANCOM Cloud Marketplace leading solutions and services. They benefit from fast, uncomplicated and scalable access to a wide range of multi-cloud solutions - with monthly billing for all services purchased. A growing number of companies are opting for "Software as a Service" (Saas). Obtaining software directly from the cloud is flexible and quickly scalable. Nevertheless, there are challenges, for example due to the rapidly growing, barely manageable range of solutions or the risk of "shadow IT". A cloud marketplace helps companies to maintain an overview, simplifies the central provision of software for employees and enables the seamless use of solutions from different providers. Companies need to be and remain flexible. As the company grows or circumstances change, resources can be adapted by adding users or functions. SaaS solutions can be implemented without investment and infrastructure requirements. Companies also benefit from cost efficiency: the reduced IT complexity leads to significantly lower maintenance and servicing costs. Automatic functional enhancements also enable continuous innovation potential. In addition, SaaS-based provisioning models impress with their simplicity and convenience. With the CANCOM Cloud Marketplace, companies can use SaaS while ensuring a high level of security and integrity, manage the purchase and procurement of hundreds of SaaS applications, and ensure consistent service and support for end users. "The expansion of our Cloud Marketplace to Austria is a major milestone in CANCOM's digitization agenda for our customers, because the procurement of modern cloud services via digital self-service processes is a key success factor in the IT strategy of every company," says Peter Weisbach, Senior Vice President Unified Commerce at CANCOM. More than 120 business and 12,000 infrastructure solutions from leading manufacturers from a single source German and Austrian customers can currently purchase more than 120 business and 12,000 infrastructure solutions from leading manufacturers digitally via the CANCOM Cloud Marketplace. These include offerings from the areas of Cloud Infrastructure & Datacenter, Backup & Migration, Communication & Collaboration, Workplace, Creativity and Security. The number of directly integrated providers and their solutions is unique. The platform also gives you direct access to the partner marketplaces of AWS and Microsoft, allowing you to book and manage all your cloud services and applications centrally. In addition, Austrian customers will soon also have access to CANCOM's own services such as Backup as a Service and Secure Offsite Backup as a Service. "The digital transformation of our customers is not only driving our own portfolio: the solutions of our trusted partners are also developing rapidly. With the CANCOM Cloud Marketplace in Austria, we offer our customers integrated infrastructure and business solutions at the touch of a button in a matter of seconds, thus significantly increasing the pace of innovation," says Dietmar Wiesinger, Member of the Executive Board CANCOM Austria AG.

Circular economy as the future for European aluminum

CANCOM, a leading hybrid IT service provider, has been even more present in the DACH region as well as in Romania and the Czech Republic since the beginning of the year. Austria's leading ICT solution and service provider and digitalization partner K-Businesscom (formerly Kapsch BusinessCom) became part of the CANCOM Group in June 2023. Since the turn of the year, the company and its subsidiaries have been operating under the CANCOM brand in Austria, Romania and the Czech Republic. With the uniform brand identity, CANCOM is strengthening its own positioning and the presence of the brand with a focus on DACH customers. The CANCOM Group grew sustainably in 2023 - to more than 5,600 employees at around 80 locations in the DACH region and beyond. The acquisition of the Austrian ICT solution and service provider K-Businesscom in June 2023 - the largest takeover in the company's history to date - was a key factor in this growth. With the turn of the year, the scope and breadth of the CANCOM brand has now also been expanded, as the company is now also operating under the CANCOM brand for the first time in the Romanian and Czech markets - after Switzerland, where K-Businesscom was already renamed in October. CANCOM has been represented on the Austrian market since 1994 with CANCOM a+d IT solutions GmbH. The competencies and market access of the former K-Businesscom will strengthen and expand CANCOM's presence there. The change of name from K-Businesscom to CANCOM is the next logical step in the course of the operational merger. At the same time, the change of name underlines the joint growth in the DACH region. "The merger has brought together two companies whose values, culture and core competencies harmonize perfectly. We are a team that pulls together. Our customers receive cross-border solutions and services from a single source - and we want to make this visible both internally and externally under one brand. Our common purpose 'We transform for the better' is our guiding principle," says Rüdiger Rath, CEO of CANCOM. DACH customers benefit from the bundled product and service portfolios of both companies, but also from new synergies through complementary additions, such as in the areas of AI, digital solutions & software development. With a broad workplace solutions portfolio, CANCOM a+d IT solutions GmbH in Austria offers holistic solutions with device lifecycle management and employee choice programs for end devices from a wide range of manufacturers. The former K-Businesscom, now CANCOM Austria, brought extensive capabilities in the areas of Intelligent Networks, Data and IoT to the CANCOM Group portfolio, in addition to existing joint strengths in the business areas of Public Cloud, Managed Services and Security. CANCOM Austria's range of IT solutions is therefore very similar to CANCOM's portfolio in Germany and includes a holistic offering consisting of consulting, implementation, services and the operation of IT systems. CANCOM Austria also develops its own software solutions and platforms for innovative business models. Thanks to its Kapsch roots, CANCOM in Austria combines 130 years of innovative strength with many years of experience as a market leader for network, data center, security, collaboration and managed services.

This means that Microsoft Cloud Services can be used with local data storage and the shortest access times in the country. Industrial machine control, critical data center services or important backup and recovery scenarios will thus be possible for KBC customers in the local cloud in the future. KBC as a sparring partner for the cloud "Sometimes you have to travel to the USA to bring the cloud to Austria," says Doris Lippert, Global Partner Solutions Lead Microsoft Austria. "As a sparring partner, KBC brings the cloud to Austrian soil and is also a strong partner for topics such as AI, Azure infrastructure and cybersecurity." KBC's expertise in the field of IT security will be used together with Microsoft technologies to better protect companies in Austria against cybersecurity threats.
