Online services for specialist publishers

ngn taps into specialist media houses business segment and cooperates closely with its shareholder Vogel Business Media

ngn - new generation network GmbH, Berlin, now also offers its digital solutions for trade media companies and is thus developing its online marketplaces not only for leading trade fair organizers, but also for established publishers worldwide. Through the strategic merger of ngn and Vogel Business Media Würzburg in August 2011, both partners benefit from an enormous further development of their business areas.



With the newly acquired specialist publishing know-how, ngn has redesigned the existing online portal www.zulieferer.de and significantly expanded its functionality. In June of this year, the website www.kfz-branchenpartner.de followed as a relaunch of the company database www.kfz-betrieb.de, which has been established for many years. Under the motto "Who supplies what for the automotive industry", ngn also expanded this portal with a wide range of new features, such as fast and efficient searches for companies and products, customizable watch lists, business matching via numerous contact options, optimized design and improved usability, free data maintenance service and comprehensive presentation options for companies and their products.



"The new strategic business area of specialist publishers opens up tremendous growth prospects for us," explains ngn Managing Director Christoph Krüger: "This makes the combined cooperation with one of the leading specialist media houses all the more important for the further development of our business." ngn has thus not only been able to assert itself as an expert in technological solutions, but also acts as a holistic portal management service provider in the area of content production and media sales.
