The Federation of Austrian Industries (de: Industriellenvereinigung, short form IV) is the voluntary and independent representation of interests of Austrian industry and its related sectors.

The IV maintains a wide net of contacts and relations and has an office in Brussels. As a lobbying organisation, it pursues its goals and represents the interests of its members in Austria as well as on a European level.

Currently, it has more than 4,400 members. Georg Knill, managing shareholder of the Knill Group and president and chairman of Rosendahl Nextrom, is its president.[1]

IV was co-founded in 1946 by Hans Lauda, who served as the organisation's president from 1946-1960.[2][3]
