Elektronik has announced changes to its editorial calendar due to the effects the coronavirus is having on delivery and production downtimes in Germany. As such, Elektronik has made the decision to combine and make changes to the chosen topics for specific issues. Key changes to the editorial calendar include:

  • Trade fair issue Hannover Messe new: Issue # 14 on 07.07. (Instead of # 8
    on 14.04.). The topics remain according to the media data and No. # 14 will be
    supplemented by a Hannover Messe focus
  • Business & Markets (B&M) # 2: Merger with B&M # 3, new: Smart Cities, Energy & Mobility, RD 20.04.
  • Fair edition PCIM remains issue # 9 on 28.04. with display at the fair. In addition, Elektronik # 15, RD 21.07. will be thematically re-orientated to the PCIM and will be displayed at the trade fair.
  • Automotive # 8: Merger with Automotive # 7, RD 30.6.
  • Business & Markets # 4: Merger with B&M # 8, Industrial & Embedded
    Vision RD 16.11.
  • Business & Markets # 5: Merger with B&M # 6, new: Smart Cities, Energy &
    Mobility, RD 20.04.

It’s not surprising in these difficult times that publishers are cutting back on their print publications. We think it’s important to remember that this is not an indication of any lack of influence for the publication. In reality, it’s likely that Elektronik and other publications will see far greater online traffic, and the reduction in print issues reflects both the challenges of getting publications printed as well as the move to more online consumption of news during isolation.
