New: Category “Economy” – because framework conditions count

Global economy / World economy / Regional economy / Internal market

After many years in which our focus was clearly on mechanical engineering, industry, renewable energies, logistics, and intralogistics, we have expanded our range of topics to include a crucial area: business.

This new category isn't emerging by chance. Rather, it's our response to current political and economic developments around the world, which are increasingly influencing markets, technologies, and value chains. National and international framework conditions, geopolitical tensions, and economic policy decisions – all of this is increasingly having a direct impact on the industries we've always reported on.

With the introduction of the “Economy” section, we are creating space for the analyses, background information, and context necessary to understand technical innovations and industrial developments in a broader context.
