The AI Marketplace is aimed at companies of all sizes and industries – regardless of how advanced their AI journey already is:
- Entry: Companies that are assessing for the first time which AI solutions might be relevant for them.
- Orientation: Companies with specific challenges that are looking for suitable providers for an initial AI project.
- Implementation & scaling: Companies that are already using AI and want to expand or complement existing solutions.
The offering covers the full spectrum – from low-threshold standard solutions to individual solutions for complex challenges.
AI providers
Companies and research institutions based or operating in Austria that offer their own AI solutions, want to present themselves on the aws AI Marketplace, and connect with potential customers – as part of a growing AI network.
Requirements for listing:
- Active offering of AI solutions with in-house development components (self-developed models, algorithms, or applications)
- Clear and concrete description of AI use on the company website
- Company headquarters or operating location in Austria
- Solutions demonstrated through concrete use cases and customer references
Pure consulting or IT service companies without their own AI development cannot participate.
The aws AI Marketplace supports AI providers in making themselves and their solutions visible – and supports companies in finding the right implementation partner for their AI initiatives. The objective is to enable concrete collaborations and AI projects in Austria.
Online platform
The platform currently lists over 270 companies, startups, and research institutions with their profiles, service offerings, and use cases (as of June 2026) – filterable by industry, application area, and location, with the option for direct contact.
Online matching
Based on a short questionnaire and a personal onboarding meeting, the aws AI Marketplace team analyzes the requirements and recommends suitable AI solutions – whether a low-threshold standard solution or an individual solution for complex challenges.
Targeted matching for individual challenges
Via the AI Matchmaker, companies can submit their individual challenges – the aws AI Marketplace team supports the entire process and identifies suitable implementation partners for project execution.
Events
At regular events, AI providers present their solutions to companies and subsequently enable direct networking on site as part of matchmaking sessions.

Registration is possible at any time free of charge via aws Connect. After completing the profile, aws reviews the submitted information and decides on admission. In the event of a positive response, the profile is listed on the platform.
