Sponsor the live desk, without any say in what it reports.

Back our coverage of a show: the headline position on the desk, sponsored session reports and newsletter placement. Your sponsorship is stated on everything it pays for and never touches the independent reporting around it.

Proof

How we report: published examples

How it works

How booking works

  1. Call or request

    Book a 15-minute call or request a slot. An editor replies personally; nothing is booked yet.

  2. Agree

    We agree the spokesperson, the topics and the time on your stand, and hold the slot while you decide.

  3. Deposit or invoice

    Pay the 50% deposit online, or ask for an invoice against your purchase order. The deposit confirms the slot.

  4. Record and publish

    We record at the show. You check the facts once, the balance is paid, and the assets go live, labelled Sponsored.

The rules

Sponsored is always labelled Sponsored

  • Every paid asset carries a Sponsored label (Anzeige in German) where readers see it first, not in a footnote.
  • Paid content is visually and structurally separate from newsroom reporting and is never presented as editorial.
  • Buying a package buys the deliverables listed. It gives no influence over our independent coverage of you, your competitors or the event.
  • You choose the spokesperson and propose topics; we keep the questions, the edit, the headline and the publication decision.
  • You can check the finished asset for factual accuracy once before it goes live.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask

Is this editorial coverage?

No. You are buying the deliverables listed on this page, produced by our reporters and published with a clear Sponsored label. It never appears as independent reporting, and it buys no influence over what the newsroom reports about you, your competitors or the event.

Who controls the questions and the edit?

You propose the spokesperson and the topics. We keep control of the questions, the edit, the headline and the publication decision. You can review the finished asset for factual accuracy once, within one business day, before it goes live.

How does payment work?

Pay a 50% deposit online to reserve your slot, or the full amount. The balance is due before the first paid asset is published. If you need a purchase order or a formal invoice first, request an invoice instead and we will send one.

What about VAT?

Prices are shown excluding VAT. The VAT handling is stated next to every price and payment button on this page. Enter your company name and VAT ID at checkout so they appear on your receipt.

Will the report only say good things?

The report is our account of what was said in the session. It names you as sponsor and can feature your speakers, but it may also include other speakers, competing views and limitations.
