A Rising City with International Connections
国际联动的崛起之城

Abstract

Graz, as the second largest city in Austria, is situated in the southern foothills of the Alps and has become one of the brightest pearls in Europe with its deep historical and cultural heritage and unique geographic location. As the capital of the state of Steiermark, Graz has a population of nearly 300,000 and is an important industrial, cultural and educational center in Austria. However, with the transformation and upgrading of the global economy, Graz is also facing the challenge of industrial restructuring and upgrading. In recent years, Graz has actively responded to the Austrian government's creative industry strategy, and is committed to building a creative industry cluster with design, art and culture as its core, striving to achieve sustainable development of the city in the context of globalization.

Driven by creative industries, Graz's industrial development has shown a trend of diversifcation and high-end. First of all, the design industry has become the new business card of Graz. As an annual event, Graz Design Month coalesces and presents the energy of local creative industries to the world, greatly enhancing the city's international reputation and infuence. At the same time, Graz's art galleries, museums and other cultural facilities attract many tourists and scholars with their unique architectural design and rich collections. Secondly, in terms of industrial design, Graz has a thriving automotive and mechanical engineering industry. As one of the world's leading automobile manufacturing companies, Magna OEM's plant in Graz not only produces a number of high-end models, but has also won wide acclaim in the industry for its fexible production and rapid response capability. In addition, Graz is home to a number of mechanical engineering-related companies, forming a relatively complete industrial chain. In terms of regional linkage and international development, Graz actively participates in international exchanges and cooperation, joining the Global Creative Cities Network (UCCN), sharing experiences and appreciating each other's achievements with cities all over the world, which further promotes the internationalization of the city.

Graz's industrial development has achieved remarkable results under the leadership of creative industries. By deepening industrial restructuring, promoting the development of creative industries, strengthening regional linkages and international cooperation, Graz has successfully realized the transformation and upgrading from traditional manufacturing to modern service and creative industries. At the same time, Graz will continue to strengthen exchanges and cooperation with the international community, and jointly promote the prosperity of global creative industries.
