Summer vacation at AT&S: Welcome to World of Experience

During summer vacations, students and parents can quench their thirst for knowledge at the AT&S headquarters in Leoben. The AT&S “World of Experience” offers new experiences around IC substrates and printed circuit boards and is recognized as “particularly impressive” in the 15-year balance sheet of Creative Industries Styria (CIS). Available dates in August and early September at AT&S in Leoben.

Leoben, July 29, 2025 – Welcome to the cool world of microelectronics. At AT&S, high-quality IC substrates and printed circuit boards are produced for prominent customers from the high-tech world, which have essential functions in smartphones, smartwatches and laptops and are also indispensable in airplanes, electric cars, satellites and many applications of digital life.

In the World of Experience

“Erlebniswelt Wirtschaft” is a successful concept of the Styrian economy: innovative companies open their doors to interested visitors who can take a look behind the scenes of production in exciting, creatively designed experience tours. More than 4.5 million visitors have taken part in tours in Styria since 2010. The new AT&S World of Experience in Leoben, opened in 2023, impresses with interactive multimedia stations, a 3D cinema and popular “Line Tours” into selected production areas. The tours amaze young and old, people with no prior technical knowledge and experts alike.

Eberhard Schrempf praised the AT&S experience tour as “particularly impressive” in the review article (“Where innovation becomes a hit with the public”) in the business magazine “SPIRIT of Styria” on the occasion of the 15-year-anniversary. As Managing Director of Creative Industries Styria (CIS), he managed the project implementation. “It’s impressive how the otherwise invisible production of tiny but indispensable high-tech components for our everyday lives is brought closer to us at AT&S.”

Dates still available in Leoben

This journey of discovery can even be booked as a vacation program now, with guided tours and the expertise of AT&S tour guides, in groups and as individuals. The next available dates are offered by AT&S during school vacations on August 21 and September 4 (each 2 pm, approx. 90 min). The next date on September 25 will be the start of the autumn program.
