We are happy to be taking a leading role and work towards developing something that currently does not exist on the market and will most likely have a positive impact on businesses worldwide.”
Mr. Raganitsch continued ”As with any such initiative at the beginning stages there are still many things unknown. We are confident that within the next 3-5 months we’ll be able to provide a detailed overview of the project’s status and how the final result is shaping up.”

Markus Lauda, the Sales Director of FOEX GmbH, added “Prof. Dr. Zugaj and his team represent a great asset to this research team. By combining our expertise in using Oracle technologies with their deep understanding of database architecture and practical knowledge of developing very complex mathematical algorithms, we greatly increase the chances of producing a positive outcome from this research effort.”
FH-Prof. Dr. Wilhelm Zugaj later continued “It is a great pleasure to support a highly innovative company such as FOEX. IT innovation is one of the biggest prospects for Austria and R&D initiatives such as the collaboration that FOEX and FH JOANNEUM agreed upon today, strengthenes our confidence in the innovative potential of Austrian small and medium enterprises.”
