Our Research

Who We Work With

“Data by itself doesn’t provide value. This is why at Volkswagen Group we’re using Impact Valuation as a management tool to assess the implementation progress of our sustainability strategy regenerate+ to see if we are on track with our goals.”

Dirk Voeste, Chief Sustainability Officer at Volkswagen Group

“EuropaBio worked with WifOR to establish economic indicators for biotechnology and it was an excellent process of research and industry-oriented outcomes. It is a valuable part of our work to represent biotechnology in Europe.”

Claire Skentelbery, Director General at EuropaBio

“The partnership-based and results-oriented collaboration with WifOR is a key component of the success of our joint research. Through the constructive exchange of knowledge and perspectives, socially relevant issues are examined and practical recommendations for action are developed.”

Dr. Charlotte Schröder, Research Director at SOKO Institute

“WifOR’s study on the Graphene Flagship’s Economic and R&D Footprint provides evidence that the EU’s investments in the program are paying off in multiple ways – in Europe and worldwide.”

Prof. Jari Kinaret, former Director of the European Union’s Graphene Flagship project (2013–2023)

“The Upper Austria Skilled Labor Monitor is unique. There is no comparable information tool in Europe that is able to make such detailed statements about the future of the labor market.”

Markus Achleitner, Economic Councillor at Upper Austria
