Chronicle

When Arnold von Siemens, the eldest son of Werner von Siemens, was named head of the “Vienna Technical Office of Siemens & Halske, Berlin” on October 23, 1879, the 26-year-old took on a tremendous responsibility in a time of technological and social upheaval. A new technological and industrial era had begun with the advent of the combustion engine and electrification. The “illumination of the cities,” the telephone, and the electric railroad ushered in all of the aspects we associate with the phenomena of globalization, a changing working world, and the communication age today. Siemens played a major role in all of these technological advances in Austria and all over the world and is still a driver of innovation in our society today.

The state coat of arms is a distinction for companies that stand for quality and innovative strength in Austria. Siemens Austria is proud to have carried this honor since 1974.
