VDI Verlag Expert-TalkBe a driving force for expertise in a panel discussion organised for you

Your Expert-Talk –Customisation par excellence

Digital transformation has its challenges. Often times, out-of-the box thinking with the goal of learning from others becomes mired in internal digitalisation trifl es and falls by the wayside. Things can get accomplis-hed much more quickly when learning curves and approaches that have proven successful for precursors are translated into purposeful action.

Our VDI Verlag Expert-Talks do more than just encourage an interdiscip-linary, cross-sector digitalisation dialogue in industry. Rather, the expert discussion we organise centres specifi cally around your company's exemplary response to the rapid changes of technologies and markets.

What's more: As the key player of this event marked by extensive knowledge sharing, you will be remembered as a driving force for expertise for some time to come – among roundtable participants and the audience, as much as among VDI nachrichten readers and ingenieur.de visitors we share the event with.

You determine the topic and participantsDo you have a compelling solution to a much-debated problem? And what participants can help make this a productive discussion on anything related to the selected topic? In cooperation with you, we devise a highly attractive talk setting.

Attention and reach as a result of a tailor-made campaignThe discussion, moderated by our journalist, is fl anked by a powerful, custom marketing campaign. The event is supported by a smart combi-nation of VDI Verlag's established print and digital channels with broad reach, prior to, during and after the panel discussion.

If the right to call up individual advertisements is granted within the framework of a contract, the Advertising Order must be processed within one year of the publication of the first advertisement, provided that the first advertisement is called up and published within one year of the conclusion of the Contract.03. If individual or multiple call-ups of a Contract are not fulfilled due to circumstances for which the Publisher is not responsible, then the Advertising Client shall be entitled, notwithstanding any further legal obligations, to reimburse the Publisher for the difference between the discount granted and the discount actually accepted. Unless otherwise agreed, the Advertising Client shall have a retroactive claim to a discount corresponding to its actual calling for publication of advertisements within an annu-al period.04. With respect to the calculation of the acceptance quantities, text millimetre lines will be converted into advertising millimetres based upon price.05. Advertising Orders for advertisements and third-party supplements that are to be published only in designated issue numbers, designated editions or in designated locations within the publication must be received by the Publisher in sufficient time to enable the Advertising Client to be notified before the advertising closing date if the order cannot be executed in the desired way. Classified advertisements will be printed in the respective section without the need for an explicit agreement.06. “Editorial Advertisements” are Advertisements that border on at least three sides with text and do not share a border with any other Advertisements. Advertisements, which are not recognizable as advertisements due to their editorial layout, shall be clearly labeled as such by the Publisher.07. Without accepting an explicit obligation to evaluate the Advertisement, the Publisher reserves the right to refuse Advertisements―including individual calls for publication in accordance with a contractual conclusion―in particular if―their content violates laws or official regulations, or―whose publication is unreasonable for the publisher due to, among other things, the content, design, origin or technical form, or―Advertisements which contain Advertisements by third parties or for third parties. Orders for other advertising materials are only binding for the Publisher after presentation of the sample and its approval. Insofar as the Publisher does not make use of its right of refusal with regard to advertising materials that contain Advertisements from third parties or for third parties (joint-advertising), these shall require the Publisher‘s prior written declaration of acceptance in each individual case. This shall entitle the Publisher to levy a joint-advertising surcharge. The Advertising Client shall be notified immediately of the rejection of an Advertisement or other advertising material.08. The Advertising Client shall be responsible for the timely submission of the advertising text and flawless print documents or other advertising material. Costs incurred by the Publisher for alterations to the print artwork requested by the Advertising Client or for which the Advertising Client is responsible shall be borne by the Advertising Client. The Contract is concluded for the title in question in accordance with the specifications in the Publisher’s price list as well as in the confirmation of order, the customary nature of the advertisements within the scope of the possibilities offered by the printing documents and the technology used by the print shop.

09. Print documents will only be returned to the Advertising Client when specifically requested. The obligation to retain the print documents shall end three months after the first publication of the advertisement or other advertising material.10. If the publication of the Advertisement does not correspond to the contractually agreed quality or service, the Advertising Client shall be entitled to a reduction in payment or a defect-free substitute advertisement or substitute publication of the other advertising material, but only to the extent that the purpose of the advertisement or the other advertising material has been affected. The Publisher has the right to refuse a substitute advertisement or substitute publication if―this requires expenditure which, having regard to the subject matter of the obligation and the principle of good faith, is manifestly disproportionate to the Advertising Client‘s interest in performance, or―this would only be possible for the Publisher at disproportionate cost. If the Publisher allows a reasonable deadline for the substitute advertisement or the substitute publication of the other advertising material to elapse, or if the substitute advertisement / substitute publication is again not free of defect, the Advertising Client shall have a right to a reduction in payment or cancellation of the order. Cancellation of the order is excluded in the event of insignificant defects in the advertisement or publication of the other advertising material. Complaints in the event of hidden defects must be lodged within one year of the statutory commencement of the limitation period. The Publisher shall be liable for all damages, regardless of whether arising from a breach of contractual obligations or from unauthorised acts in accordance with the following provisions: In the case of gross negligence, liability in commercial transactions shall be limited to compensation for the typical foreseeable damage; this limitation shall not apply if the damage was caused by legal representatives or vicarious agents of the Publisher. In the case of simple negligence, the Publisher shall only be liable if an essential contractual obligation has been breached. In such cases, liability is limited to the typical foreseeable damage. The Publisher shall be liable in accordance with the statutory provisions for claims under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) and in the event of injury to life, limb or health. Complaints must be lodged―except in the case of hidden defects―within four weeks of publication. All claims against the Publisher arising from contractual breach of duty shall become statute-barred one year after the statutory commencement of the limitation period, unless they are based on wilful misconduct.11. Proofs shall be supplied only upon express request. The Customer shall assume responsibility for the correctness of the returned proofs. The publisher shall take into account all error corrections that are notified to it by the closing date for advertisements or within the deadline set when sending the proofs.12. If no special size specifications have been provided, then the actual printing size will be based upon the typical printing size for the respective type of Advertisement.13. The invoice must be paid within the period indicated in the price list, unless a different payment period or advance payment has been agreed in writing. Any discounts for early payment will be granted according to the price list.14. In the event of payment default or if a payment extension is granted, conventional interest and collection costs shall be charged. In the event of payment default, the Publisher may suspend the further execution of the current order until payment is received and may demand prepayment for the remaining advertisements. If there is reasonable doubt regarding the Advertising Client’s ability to pay, the Publisher is entitled, even during the term of the transaction and prior to the commencement of a new business relationship, to make the publication of further advertisements dependent upon advance payment of the amount charged and settlement of unpaid invoices, regardless of previously agreed terms of payment.

15. Upon request, the Publisher shall provide a clipping of the advertisement. Depending on the type and scope of the advertising order, advertising sections, individual whole pages or complete reference copies of the publication shall be supplied. If it is no longer possible to obtain a copy of the publication, this shall be replaced by a legally binding certificate from the publisher confirming the publication and distribution of the advertisement.16a. Subject to the provisions of Clause 16b, a reduction in circulation may be grounds for a price reduction―as specified in Sentence 2 below―in the case of a standing Advertising Order for multiple advertisements, if the overall average circulation falls below the promised circulation in the year of insertion beginning with the first advertisement. A reduction in circulation shall only be deemed a defect warranting the Advertising Client to a reduction in price if and to the extent that, in the case of a guaranteed circulation of up to 50,000 copies, the reduction exceeds at least 20 percent; in the case of a guaranteed circulation of up to 100,000 copies, the reduction exceeds at least 15 percent; in the case of a guaranteed circulation of up to 500,000 copies, the reduction exceeds at least 10 percent; and, for a guaranteed print run of more than 500,000 copies, the reduction exceeds at least 5 percent. A reduction in circulation for reasons specified in section 23 shall not be considered. The circulation upon which the guarantee is based is the total paid circulation as defined by IVW. This is calculated for the year of insertion on the basis of the circulation average of the four quarters prior to the year of insertion, unless an absolute circulation figure has been stated by the publisher as an express guarantee in the respective price list. Entitlement to a price reduction is contingent upon a discountable contract on the basis of the volume discount scale and for at least three issues. The basis for the calculation of the price reduction is the order per company, except for a charge by brands, which is to be defined at the time of the granting of the order. The possible circulation reduction shall be calculated as the balance of circulation over-runs and circulation under-runs of the documented publications within the year of insertion. The refund will be made at the end of the campaign on the basis of a credit note issued against the Advertising Customers’ net invoice, taking into account any agency fees already granted as a credit in kind or, if this is no longer possible, as a cash refund. In addition, claims for price reductions shall be excluded if the Publisher has informed the Advertising Client of the reduction in circulation in sufficient time to withdraw from the contract before publication of the advertisement.16b. (Special provision in the event of reduction in the circulation of magazines publishing issue-related circulation data) Notwithstanding subsection 16a, a reduction in circulation for titles which publish issue-related circulation data only provides justification for a reduction in price, if and to the extent that the reduction in circulation exceeds 10 percent for a circulation (guaranteed circulation) up to 500,000 copies and 5 percent for a circulation of more than 500,000 copies. A reduction in circulation for reasons specified in section 23 shall not be considered.17. The Publisher shall exercise the diligence of a prudent businessman for the safekeeping and timely forwarding of offers in the case of box number advertisements. Registered and express letters in response to box number advertisements will be forwarded by regular mail. Responses to box number advertisements shall be kept for four weeks. Letters that are not collected within this period will be destroyed. The Publisher shall return valuable documents without being obliged to do so. The Publisher may be granted the right, on an individual contract basis as a representative, to open incoming offers in the declared interest of the Advertising Client. Letters exceeding the permissible A4 format (weight 1,000 g), as well as goods, books, catalogues and parcels are excluded from forwarding and will not be accepted. However, an acceptance and forwarding can be agreed in exceptional cases in the event that the Advertising Client assumes any and all resulting fees/costs.18. Place of performance is the Publisher‘s registered office. In the case of business transactions with commercial entities, legal entities under public law or special funds under public law, the place of jurisdiction for legal actions is the publisher‘s registered office. Insofar as the publisher‘s claims are not asserted in payment reminder proceedings, the place of jurisdiction for non-commercial entities is determined by their place of residence. If the Advertising Client‘s domicile or habitual residence, even in the case of non-commercial entities, is unknown at the time of bringing an action or if the

Advertising Client has moved his domicile or habitual residence out of the area of application of the law following conclusion of the contract, the place of jurisdiction shall be the Publisher‘s registered office.19. Advertising brokers and agencies shall be obliged to comply with the Publisher‘s price list in their offers, contracts and invoices with advertisers.20. Changes to the Publisher’s advertising price list shall also apply to ongoing orders from the moment the changes come into effect. This shall not apply to contracts concluded with non-commer-cial entities for orders that are due to be fulfilled within four months.21. If a joint discount is claimed for companies affiliated within a group, written verification of the group status of the Advertising Client is required. Companies affiliated within a group under this provision are companies involving a capital shareholding of at least 50 percent. In the case of joint-stock companies, group status should be verified by means of confirmation provided by an auditor or by submission of the group’s most recent annual report, in the case of partnerships, group status should be verified by submission of an extract from the register of companies. The verification must be provided within the first half of the contract period. Subsequent verification cannot be recognised retroactively. Group discounts always require express, written confirmation by the Publisher. Group discounts are only granted for the period that the company is a member of the group. Notification should be provided immediately the company ceases to be a member of the group; the group discount also ceases when the company is no longer a member of the group.22. The Advertising Client guarantees that he holds all the necessary rights for placing the Advertisement. The Advertising Client bears sole responsibility for the content and legal permissions relating to the copy and images made available for placement of the Advertisement or other advertising material. The Advertising Client indemnifies the Publisher from all claims by third parties which may arise as a result of infringement of statutory regulations or on account of regulations defined under legislation governing the press pursuant to the Advertising Order. Furthermore, the Publisher shall also be indemnified against the expense of any defence in legal proceedings. The Advertising Client shall support the Publisher in good faith by providing information and documents required to defend against legal proceedings brought by third parties. The Advertising Client shall transfer to the Publisher all necessary rights relating to copyright, licensing, production and related rights for use of the advertisement in print and online media of all types, including the Internet, in particular the right of reproduction, dissemination, transmission, broadcasting, making available in public, retrieval and access from a database, in the scope required in relation to time and content for purposes of implementing the Advertising Order. In all cases, the aforementioned rights shall be transferred without limitation of place.23. If operations are interrupted, or in cases of force majeure, illegal industrial disputes, unlawful seizure, traffic delays, general shortages of raw materials or energy, and similar circumstances – in the Publisher’s business operations or in those of third-party companies which the Publisher uses in fulfilment of its obligations―the Publisher shall have a claim to full payment for the published advertisements, insofar as the publication in question was distributed at 80 percent of the average paid-for circulation over the past four quarters, or was guaranteed in some other way. If the circulation is lower, the invoiced amount shall be reduced at the same ratio as the proportion of the guaranteed circulation to the actual circulation. Reductions in circulation for reasons defined in sentence 1 will not be taken into account pursuant to section 16 of the General Terms and Conditions of Business.24. Advertorials are externally produced sections, and must differ clearly in form and presentation from the editorial sections of the newspaper/magazine (in typography, graphic elements, colour schemes, column layout). They contain text and advertisements produced by third parties. They are to include their own masthead. The Publisher marks advertorial content with the word “advertise-ment” without prior consultation. The Publisher reserves the right to publish an authentic sample and to set special prices for special publications. The advertorial must be submitted to the Publisher at least 10 working days before the end of the printing deadline for review and approval.
