SOLID CONSTRUCTION
The Austrian trade magazine for
the entire construction industry
Achieve topic leadership with our SOLID communication channels!
Our motto "We bring the industry together" is more important than ever, because SOLID is the only Austrian communication platform that deals comprehensively with all trades in the construction industry and does so on all channels: print, online, LinkedIn, podcast platforms such as Spotify, video channels such as YouTube and, of course, at our live events. That's what we call real 360° communication.
The construction industry and its environment are a key driver of the Austrian economy and are constantly on the move - digitalisation, taxonomy and lean construction are just three of the buzzwords. As a result, the need for independent, well-founded information based on broad expertise is constantly growing. Almost 10,000 subscribers to the print edition, around 4,000 subscribers to our newsletter (with > 37 % open rates), around 300,000 visits to our website www.solidbau.at in 2024 and the numerous participants in our face-to-face and virtual events as well as videos and podcasts rely on the well-told, critically researched and well-categorised information that they find on the many platforms of SOLID - Economy and technology in construction refer.
We promise professional communication on all channels, because our digital offering with SEO-optimised online portal, newsletters, webinars and white papers is complemented by powerful events such as the "SOLID BIM Conference".
Put your communication goals in our hands, because we understand decision-makers.
