"Spotlightmetal" whets appetite for more

• “Spotlightmetal” portrays the whole value chain
• Online-platform with networking possibility for the light metal casting industry

“Spotlightmetal” gets started: The cooperation between Würzburg-based specialized media house Vogel Business Media and NürnbergMesse has just started a couple of weeks ago, but has already caught a lot of attention – online and offline. For Matthias Bauer, Speaker of the Management Board of Vogel Business Media, the formula for success is obvious: “With the new international portal we want to shed light on the technical and economic opportunities and challenges of light metal casting and offer support and orientation to the players in this segment. I am looking forward to a successful cooperation with NürnbergMesse”. An added value that offers outstanding synergies according to Peter Ottmann and Dr. Roland Fleck, CEOs of the NürnbergMesse Group: “Our international fairs and digital platforms complement each other perfectly. ‘Spotlightmetal’ shows ideally how industry topics can be portrayed practically orientated and whets your appetite for the next fair.”

In January 2018 NürnbergMesse and the Würzburg-based specialised media house Vogel Business Media launched the new, international portal "Spotlightmetal", which is dedicated to the world of light metal casting. The English-language portal covers the entire value chain: from suppliers and providers such as machine or plant manufacturers – through foundries to sales and customer markets, especially automotive, electronics, medical technology and machinery.

With the leading European event for the die-casting industry “Euroguss” and other international offshoots in China, India and Mexico, NürnbergMesse has been offering a prestigious event for the die-casting sector and for all relevant market players for 14 years. Vogel Business Media has a high level of expertise in digital marketing as well as a diverse portfolio of digital products for the B2B market. In addition, specialist titles of Vogel Business Media such as "Automobil Industrie" or "Konstruktionspraxis" offer access to the sales markets of the light casting industry.
