ReqPOOL Executive new year cocktail 2026 in Linz

Agentic AI, the self-driving company & future perspectives

Last week we welcomed around 100 executives from business and IT to our ReqPOOL Executive new year cocktail at the Teichwerk of Johannes Kepler University Linz.

The evening focused on concrete applications of artificial intelligence, agentic AI and the vision of the “self-driving company”. It was also discussed how companies can already use these technologies today for sustainable progress.

The practical impulses were particularly valuable: among others, Sebastian Wolf, CFO of TGW Logistics Group, gave exciting insights into the use of AI and robotics in intralogistics.

A heartfelt thank you to Federal Minister Wolfgang Hattmannsdorfer for opening the event, and to Markus Achleitner, state councillor for economy of Upper Austria, and Manfred Haimbuchner, deputy governor, for the appreciative greetings and the clear positioning on the importance of AI for the business location.

Many thanks also to all guests for the open exchange and exciting discussions! The alliance of politics, business and technology remains decisive for bringing AI into practice effectively.
