Winner, Airbus Critical App Challenge, October 2018

The unique and first “Critical App Challenge for the Middle East and North Africa” was organized by Airbus.

Among the 40 companies which participated in the online contest, the companies BRAQ Aerospace (Saudi Arabia), Delta Smart Technologies (Turkey), epic. blue (Belgium) and Steerpath (Finland) presented the most convincing app solutions. The challenge was to find the best digital communication solutions for various industry staff, policemen, firefighters or paramedics who need specialized communication solutions for their regions in North Africa and the Middle East. The applications can be used on the Airbus device Tactilon Dabat, the world´s first smartphone and Tetra radio in one.

Collaboration with the Austrian Federal Computing Centre (BRZ - Bundesrechenzentrum), April 2019

Finding new and innovative applications to simplify electronic administration is a core concern of the BRZ. In order to gather new impulses here, the BRZ once again became the main partner of the GovTech.Pioneers event. In workshops and panels, GovTech.Pioneers offer a platform for the exchange between innovative start-ups and the authorities. Ten selected start-ups presented their ideas in a BRZ workshop as part of GovTech-Pioneers19 to provide new impulses in the governmental technologies sector. A total budget of 20,000 euros was allocated for two projects, which is now used for the development of prototypes of the applications. Together with 1702ai from Switzerland and Deltasmart Tech from Turkey, a prototype will also be developed that combines the strengths of the two innovative start-ups in the public security sector. 1702ai has already developed an application especially for smart cities that can detect and report threats in public spaces using CCTV networks. In contrast, Deltasmart Tech uses its “Pincident” app to use AI-supported crowdsourcing for real-time reporting of incidents and threats. The jury for the selection of start-ups was top-class. In addition to the BRZ experts Matthias Lichtenthaler and Clemens Schwaiger, Clemens Möslinger, head of the department for matters for strategic communication, network and information system security at the Federal Chancellery, and Peter Reichstädter, head of the IT department and CIO of the Austrian Parliament were involved in the decision-making process.
