"Working in a different country has always been my personal and professional goal along with the support of my mentor and manager helped me turn this ambition into reality." people often call me Ola (which caused some initial confusion with my Austrian colleagues I’m currently in my second rotation of the Taste The Future Junior Management Program at the chocolate factory in Bludenz where I work as a Vertical Start-Up (VSU) Leader and part of the project team In my first rotation at the biscuits factory in Płońsk contributing to projects like installing new case packer machines and improving the over overall production processes in the plant Relocating to another country is a significant decision and how did you professionally and personally prepare Working in a different country has always been my personal and professional goal I was motivated to experience different working styles and cultures and to challenge myself in new and unexpected situations I also saw this as an opportunity to expand my network and learn a new language I couldn't imagine a better place for this journey than Bludenz and Liechtenstein makes every weekend feel like a mini vacation I took intensive German courses and had several calls with my future managers I also had an amazing farewell party in Płońsk — my colleagues truly surprised me Working across two different countries also means adapting to new ways of thinking and working What new skills or perspectives have you gained in Bludenz that you hadn’t encountered in your previous rotation One of the most valuable things I’ve gained is greater personal and professional confidence Moving to a new country and working in a different language was challenging but it taught me to focus on my strengths and learn from my mistakes without overthinking them This has made me more adaptable and open to new experiences even across cultural and language differences Working in a chocolate factory has also been an incredible experience as a food technologist The site’s process of producing chocolate mass directly from cocoa beans—a rare practice in the industry—has been truly inspiring especially in such a historic plant in the heart of the Alps Did you experience memorable team moments or local holiday celebrations in Bludenz that made your adjustment easier A new colleague from work invited me to celebrate in Dornbirn It was a fantastic opportunity to bond with my new team and experience the Austrian culture firsthand Another fascinating tradition here is the Krampus parade where characters dressed as Krampus—a demonic companion of Saint Nicholas—march through the streets to scare and entertain people during the Advent celebrations Our team is planning to attend one of these shows together With the holiday season often being a time of reflection what have you found most rewarding about the Taste the Future Junior Management Program experience so far The most fulfilling aspect of the program has been discovering new strengths and realizing my potential I’ve learned to handle high-pressure situations and take responsibility for key project elements Contributing to projects at various stages has sharpened my problem-solving skills and highlighted the importance of adaptability Visiting suppliers and other plants to share best practices has broadened my technical expertise and provided valuable end-to-end exposure Networking with professionals from different regions has been another critical benefit and fresh perspectives—essential for continuous improvement What advice would you give to other people who might be facing a similar transition Be open to new opportunities and trust in your choices It’s important to clearly understand your goals and communicate them effectively with your managers discussing expectations for the second-year transition with my manager at the early stage of the program was incredibly helpful in shaping my path and staying aligned with my aspirations Benchmarking with other factories was another key part of my development Observing different roles and work styles broadened my perspective and provided valuable lessons I’ve applied to my career do you have any personal holiday traditions that you brought with you to Austria or new ones you’ll get back with you to Poland and one tradition I deeply miss is eating “Rogale Świętomarcińskie” (St These buttery pastries filled with white poppy seeds are a unique part of Polish culture and I plan to share them with my colleagues in Austria next year I’ll take back the tradition of celebrating with a giant pretzel filled with ham and vegetables—a tasty and satisfying alternative to sweets especially in a chocolate factory where they’re everywhere 😊 Make it with

Give your business an edge with our leading industry insights View all newsletters from across the GlobalData Media network The mayor of the Vorarlberg town of Bludenz had to answer to the Feldkirch regional court on Wednesday morning for abuse of office was convicted of abuse of office at the Feldkirch provincial court on Wednesday A panel of lay judges considered it proven that the 32-year-old granted a building permit for a residential complex in 2021 even though he knew that not all requirements were met He received an eleven-month suspended prison sentence and a fine of 51,000 euros "I am absolutely astonished"The verdict visibly affected the city boss I am still certain that I am not guilty," he told media representatives after the verdict was announced His defense lawyer filed an appeal for annulment and an appeal Tschann announced that he would remain in office and stand again in the Vorarlberg municipal and mayoral elections on March 16 Tschann has been mayor of Vorarlberg's smallest town with around 15,000 inhabitants since fall 2020 he would have automatically lost his office The 32-year-old was charged because in 2021 in his function as building authority of the first instance he signed a building permit for a residential complex consisting of three buildings with 23 units which apparently did not meet all legal requirements The public prosecutor stated that criticism of the project by the official expert had been ignored and that the distance between the second building structure and the public traffic area was only 90 centimetres - the official expert had already been 2.5 meters too little There had been no examination as to whether the project was in line with local standards and the official expert had never given his approval "They wanted to force the project through," the public prosecutor stated Project approval called into questionTschann was also accused of making false statements to the regional ombudsman and the district authority of Bludenz and faking the approval of the official expert a meeting was simply invented that never took place and in which the expert had given his approval," said the public prosecutor According to Tschann and his defense lawyer the meeting in question did indeed take place The jour fixe is said to have taken place on June 17 2021 - two days after the construction hearing had been advertised This would probably have been canceled if the project had not been given the green light at the Jour Fixe the official expert said in court that there was no such thing as a "verbal approval" - as was rumored - in such a matter He had only learned of such a release in April 2022 The city stated that it had failed to provide written documentation the Design Advisory Board still had concerns about the dimensions and design of the building structures the project was "not approved" at the time An employee of the building law department who was involved in the matter at the time confirmed that "direct approval" had not been given by the official expert Minor changes to the project had been made following the official expert's report on June 9 everyone had the impression "that it fits" Tschann emphasized that he does not check decisions submitted to him by the city administration I assume that the basis for it has been checked by my employees," said Tschann This also applies to the statements made to the provincial ombudsman and the district authority His lawyer also emphasized that a mayor is not subject to instructions and is not bound by expert opinions in his decisions It was precisely in the practice described by Tschann that the public prosecutor's office saw abuse of office According to the public prosecutor in his plea it did not matter whether the building permit had been issued rightly or wrongly The decisive factor was that Tschann had neither examined the official expert's report nor the building permit The defense stated in this regard: "If the mayor has to examine the content of a building permit you won't find a mayor anymore." There are specialist departments for this Public prosecutor's office filed an appealIn the reasons for the verdict the judge followed the argumentation of the public prosecutor you knew that there was a statement and points to be revised," he stated "You are obliged to read a notice," said the judge He also assumed that Tschann had indeed read it the head of the city was convicted of abuse of office and false certification in office The probation period for the eleven-month prison sentence is three years The 51,000 euro fine (300 daily rates of 170 euros) was based on the mayor's monthly net income of 7,000 euros The public prosecutor's office also lodged an appeal This article has been automatically translated,read the original article here Willkommen in unserer Community!

Competing on home soil, the European mountain running champion left her opponents behind soon after the start and even caught up with half of the men’s field. Her advantage grew with each kilometre that passed, and at the finish she was more than two minutes clear of her nearest challenger, fellow Austrian Sabine Reiner, 51:44 to 53:48. Even the third-place finisher, Italy’s three-time European mountain running silver medallist Valentina Belotti, was almost five minutes adrift of Mayr. But Mayr’s success wasn’t a surprise – in her long career she got won six gold medals at major mountain-running championships and was the WMRA Grand Prix winner in 2010. She also represented her country in the marathon at the 2012 Olympics and competed in the steeplechase at two editions of the IAAF World Championships. In stark contrast to the women’s race, the men’s race was much closer. A small group, headed by Italy’s European mountain running silver medallist Alex Baldaccini, broke away at the half-way point. After passing 7km, with less than a mile remaining to the finish, the leading quartet opened up a 15-second margin over the chasing trio and then the real racing began on a steep narrow trail. In the final 500 metres, Kenya’s Simon Muthoni forged ahead and crossed the finish line in 48:13, 23 seconds ahead of Baldaccini. The organisers, chaired by local mountain running enthusiast Hubert Rodhammer, celebrated the 30th anniversary of the race on the new designed course which begins in the old city centre and turns into the forest before heading on to a picturesque trail with views to the Bludenz Valley. Almost 200 runners form 12 countries took part on this challenging course. The conditions were good, if a little hot for this time of year.

in reinforced concrete lightweight construction for the Werkhof in Bludenz The team of the institute was responsible for the design of the roof structure with a free span of 14m as well as for the development of the print strategy of the 3D-printed recess bodies and thus contributed its expertise in the implementation of the novel construction method to the largest construction of this kind worldwide so far The construction project was completed at the beginning of 2023 and is representative of the use of 3D concrete printing as a promising option for the construction of filigree and sustainable load-bearing structures in lightweight reinforced concrete Load-bearing structures are responsible for 50-70% of a building's CO2 emissions and therefore offer enormous savings potential for future construction measures The "Graz lightweight reinforced concrete construction method" based on printed formwork was developed and extensively tested at Graz University of Technology as part of an FFG research project about 1000 square meters of the lightweight reinforced concrete structures are already in use for structural elements such as ceilings and roofs The central element here are

He will face Switzerland’s David Schneider, twice a top-10 finisher at the European Mountain Running Championships, and Slovenia’s Mitja Kosovelj. Other contenders include Italy’s Emanuele Manzi, Hungary’s Adam Kovacs and Kenya’s Hirum Wandangi. This year’s race in the Austrian town will be held on a demanding 8.4km course which will peak at an altitude of 1160m. The race begins on the roads of Bludenz, before heading on to forest roads and woodland paths. The winner will be decided on the final steep alpine paths where an ascent of 380m will have to be overcome within less than two kilometres. If the weather forecast is correct, all finishers will be awarded at the finish on the ‘Fraßenhütte’ with a marvellous mountain panorama. Tekle and Gaggi win the WMRA Smarna Gora race... Rono and Yalew first across the line at Obudu... Austrian local police said on Monday that a German hiker died after falling from an alpine trail in the Austrian Alps. The incident took place near Bludenz, in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg, on Sunday night, according to police. The 54-year-old man, hiking with his wife and their dog, lost his footing at a dangerous spot on the trail, at an altitude of about 1,350 metres. He fell approximately 150 metres down rocky terrain. Despite his wife’s quick response to assist and alert a rescue helicopter, the man succumbed to his injuries at the scene.

The objective is to research the appropriateness of reed as facade and roof cladding material, especially in high altitude alpine regions.  Reed grows fast, forms a valuable biotope, generates better water quality, and provides a home for multiple animals. The dead-standing part of the plant is going to be replaced by new plants every year. Only this dead part of the plant is going to be harvested and can be used as a cladding material for the facade and roof without any further treatment. At the end of life, the reed is compostable and closes the material life cycle.  The building guarantees the water supply of the main hut and needed a new appearance. We decided to use the existing stone building as the foundation for the new wooden structure to minimize the intervention into this sensible environment. Ground Floor Plan The design needed to be simple and appropriate to location and use. The main focus should be on the material itself with its architectural and manual – technical coordinated details. The integration of experiences thatch craftsmen in an early stage of planning was essential to develop simple and appropriate details for the material involved. A team of craftsmen, students, and faculty staff developed and built balanced together. Courtesy of IBBTE University Of Stuttgart But how did we get to this material? This was a very formal approach in the beginning. We realized that in their design work for a mountain hut the students attempted to design the full envelope – façade, and roof – out of a single material to generate a monolithic design. DetailSo we researched the following student workshop materials which could be used in this way and metal we rediscovered the material thatch which allows a very three-dimensional design analog to concrete almost This fascinated us right away and led to further research and the idea of building a prototype thatched envelope In a real-life caper that could have starred Willy Wonka Austrian police are seeking a thief who stole 18 tons of chocolate bars and melted into thin air The paper says the truck was chartered from Chechnya "The fraudsters were very sophisticated," police said The news reports do not identify the producer, but Suchard, famous for its Milka brand Kraft Foods now owns the formerly Swiss chocolatier Text description provided by the architects.

The public prosecutor's office initiated its investigations because large quantities of ammunition and Nazi memorabilia were found during a house search in a forest house in Langenlois where Schimanek was then primarily registered the property was supposed to serve as a retreat for the "Saxon Separatists." Following public pressure Schimanek requested the termination of the employment relationship which was first reported by the "Standard" on Monday Rosenkranz learned of the investigations in February the National Council President bases his criteria "exclusively on those directly related to the necessary professional qualifications and characteristics for the respective position." And: "Extracurricular interests or activities belong to the private sphere and are therefore not part of the decision-making process." Criticism of the statement came from the inquiry submitter the Green Party's spokesperson on right-wing extremism Lukas Hammer: "If employees of the National Council President are connected to right-wing extremist networks then this cannot simply be dismissed as a 'private matter'," he stated in a statement the notion "that the Office for the Protection of the Constitution immediately knocks on the National Council President's door at every suspicion" is simply "naive."
