Woeste Druck + Verlag GmbH and Co. KG

Deutsche Telekom AG / T-Systems on behalf of Messe Duesseldorf GmbH

All your orders executed by any other official service partners, will be charged to you personally on a separate invoice by the official service partner of Messe Duesseldorf directly.

The prepayment deposit covers the costs of installing water, power, compressed air and telecommunications connections, inclusive of consumption and all other services (e.g. admission tickets/parking permits).

The amount of pre-payment is based on the size of stand space applied for/rented by you as well as charges calculated from the previous event. For exhibitors from the last event who are returning participants with unchanged stand space, pre-payment will be equal to the invoice received for technical and other services after the last event.

For you as a previous exhibitor, this means that your pre-payment invoice for technical services will be based on the total supplementary stand costs from the last event.

Should you rent a different size stand space than at the last event, your pre-payment amount will be adjusted proportionally. For first-time participants, the m2-based pre-payment amount is calculated on the average of all technical and other services used by exhibitors at the previous event.

After the event, you will receive a final account for the services you have used.
Once your deposit has been deducted, you will either receive a refund or be required to settle the outstanding amount.

Please direct your question to the following contact:

This is the only way to establish the relationship of the person to the company.

This limit applies to pending meetings.

The Networking Plaza is intended to enable exhibitors and trade visitors to network, chat and make appointments with each other in a targeted manner some time before the start of the respective event. This not only simplifies the initial contact, but also specifies it (based on agreement between the participants in product categories and structural issues). At the same time, this should enable participants to build up valuable leads. In addition, the appointment planning already made in advance makes the trade fair visit efficient and ensures a successful trade fair visit for both sides. In addition to online access via the Internet (e.g. desktop or notebook), mobile access to the functions is also possible via an app.
The Networking Plaza is realised with the established product service Matchmaking of our cooperation partner grip.

The shopping cart is used to store certain products there without having to call them up again before the purchase. Articles in the shopping cart are not completed orders.

When ordering articles from the shopping cart, the actual order date is always used on which the orders from the shopping cart were triggered and not the date on which an article was placed in the shopping cart.

We kindly ask you to order in good time, as after the order deadline has expired, online ordering via the OOS is no longer possible.

Generally we advise you not to bring your dog with you to the fairground as tehere are no facilities for animals. But it is not forbidden.

In case of bringing a dog, the owner is responsible for the disposal of the waste. Bag dispensers are located at the entrances in the outdoor area. Drinking bowls are located in front of the outdoor catering area in the indoor area. Assistance dogs (such as guide dogs, signal dogs, dogs for deaf people, medical signal dogs, disabled assistance dogs) may of course always be brought along.

Exhibits, printed materials and advertising materials may only be displayed within the rented stand space, not in aisles or on exhibition premises.

Up to 50 people can participate in a virtual meeting.

The Networking Plaza is intended to enable exhibitors and trade visitors to network, chat and make appointments with each other in a targeted manner some time before the start of the respective event. This not only simplifies the initial contact, but also specifies it (based on agreement between the participants in product categories and structural issues). At the same time, this should enable participants to build up valuable leads. In addition, the appointment planning already made in advance makes the trade fair visit efficient and ensures a successful trade fair visit for both sides. In addition to online access via the Internet (e.g. desktop or notebook), mobile access to the functions is also possible via an app.
The Networking Plaza is realised with the established product service Matchmaking of our cooperation partner grip.
Within the framework of online events, Matchmaking has been extended to include the use of virtual meeting rooms (web meetings).

Even if the time has expired, the meeting will not simply end. Only the organizer can end the meeting. If the meeting is left before, it is no longer possible to participate again with the invitation link.

In order to be able to use the virtual meeting room function within the matchmaking tool, it is necessary to use the service of the video meeting provider Whereby. Generally, no other technical requirements apply here than for common video conferencing systems. It is only required to register once and free of charge.This is done automatically with the first use of a videomeeting. You will find a detailed specification in the matchmaking tool in the menu bar on the left.

The appointments are not automatically in your private calendar. But you can add them to your Outlook calendar by clicking (ical function) from the invitation email.

In general, everyone can participate in Matchmaking, there is no limit.

If, for example, you normally have 20 sales staff working at your trade fair stand, they can all take part in matchmaking. The only important thing is that your employees are invited via the user administration in matchmaking for your company and register via the invitation link. This is the only way to establish the relationship of the person to the company.

This limit applies to pending meetings.

However, you can cancel requests at any time and thus have available requests again. As soon as someone accepts or rejects your request, you can send more requests, so only the number of open requests is limited to avoid spamming.

Participation is possible via your computer/notebook, but also via the app on your smartphone. A one-time successful registration is necessary to use the app.
Please fill in the required fields and answer the following structural questions. After clicking on the button "Register now" you will receive a confirmation e-mail to the e-mail address you have entered. Please confirm your registration by clicking on the link in the e-mail. After successful registration you can make contacts directly and use all functions of the matchmaking service without any restrictions.

Of course, you can also hold or participate in your virtual meetings mobile.

The functions in the app are analogous to the desktop version. To use the app, it is necessary to successfully register on a desktop PC in advance.
