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.[1][3] Since 2011 Brix has run his own production company, producing material for TV, commercials, and internet.[4]

Since 2008 he is the initiator and organizer of the annual benefit evening[5] in favor of development aid clubs and Chairman of the Otto Tausig fund "Artists Development Aid",[6] along with Lilly Tausig, Paul Gulda and Erwin Steinhauer.[7]

In 2011 he was a co-founder of Facebook group Amici delle SVA,[8] which in 2017 in association with ARGE1[9] established a legal entity for micro-enterprises.
