CANCOM Austria takes second place nationwide in the ‘Austria’s Leading Companies 2026’ rankings

The Austria’s Leading Companies Award will be presented for the 28th time in 2026 by Die Presse, KSV1870 and PwC Austria, and is one of the country’s most prestigious business awards. The focus is not on a jury’s decision, but on the objective economic performance of the companies: The assessment is based on balance sheet figures and economic performance over the last three financial years. A specially developed key-figure model also enables cross-sector comparison. Companies can earn additional bonus points by undergoing a quality and safety audit by TÜV AUSTRIA.

The traditional ALC awards are presented in three categories based on company size: small businesses with an annual turnover of between one and ten million euros, medium-sized businesses with an annual turnover of between ten and 50 million euros, and large enterprises with an annual turnover of more than 50 million euros. CANCOM Austria was honoured in the highest category, that of large enterprises.

“The ALC is quite rightly regarded as a sort of ‘Oscar of the Austrian business world’. That is why this second place in the national rankings makes us incredibly proud. For us, this award is both a mark of appreciation and a confirmation of our achievements. It shows that, in recent years, we have done a great deal right in our new structure as CANCOM Austria. After all, we have undergone a far-reaching transformation: from a long-established Austrian family business operating under the Kapsch brand to CANCOM Austria as part of an international group of companies. The fact that we have not only successfully navigated this change but are now among Austria’s most economically successful large enterprises is, above all, a testament to the efforts of our entire team. We can all be very proud of this together.” Dietmar Wiesinger, Managing Director of CANCOM Austria

CANCOM Austria currently employs 1,415 staff in Austria and generated a turnover of 463 million euros in 2025. As one of Austria’s leading IT system integrators and service providers, the company supports its customers across the entire digital value chain, from IT infrastructure, networks and the cloud through to cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and managed services.

For CANCOM Austria, second place is therefore far more than just a snapshot in time. The award reflects the company’s development over recent years, its economic stability and forward-looking approach, and, above all, the contribution of its staff, who have made this journey possible.
