Life

Werner Brix was for six years a communications engineer in the information technology industry. In 1993 in Vienna he began his acting career and "has been a fixed part of the Austrian film, theater and cabaret scene ever since." With a knack for humor, he strives to advance the values of tolerance, equality and solidarity. He appeals to a demanding audience and to the media with his motto being "humor with a brain". He is frequently invited to talk shows or to give keynote speeches in the business world. Since 2011 Brix has run his own production company, producing material for TV, commercials, and the Internet.
Since 2008 he has been the initiator and organizer of the annual benefit evening in favor of development aid clubs and Chairman of the Otto Tausig fund "Artists Development Aid", along with Lilly Tausig, Paul Gulda and Erwin Steinhauer.
In 2011 he was a co-founder of Facebook group Amici delle SVA, which in 2017 in association with ARGE1 established a legal entity for micro-enterprises.
