He selected ppi Media's AdX Print with Gutenberg Rechenzentrum's deeply integrated ad system VI&VA. "Beyond that, we are also very excited that the Reiff Verlag in Offenburg decided in favor of our InkReduction solution to optimize their ink usage," reveals Norbert Ohl.

Paying a visit to impulse's editorial offices
In addition to the new customer projects, ppi Media's Managing Director illustrates another highlight from the Expo: The tour of impulse, the magazine for entrepreneurs. Roughly 20 participants made their way to impulse Medien's editorial offices on the third day of the event. Publishing Director Ole Jendis and Managing Director Eva Weikert opened their doors and provided exclusive insight into the magazine's philosophy, strategy and its plans for the future. In addition to that, the visitors experienced Content-X live. impulse has been using this editorial solution since 2013. At that time, Impulse Medien GmbH separated from its parent company, Gruner + Jahr, and since then impulse has been using ppi Media and Digital Collections' Content-X to produce its monthly publication as well as its special editions and inserts.
