The latest edition of VDI once again offered interesting contributions from the world of technology, economy and society. Current issues such as the cold snap in the United States are highlighted from the expert point of view, but also articles to the quota of women in supervisory boards or contemporary history of aviation can be found in the January issue. During the NORTEC fair in Hamburg the paper was successfully distributed by our promoters to the visitors on two days , pointing out the additional coupon code for a free download in the e-paper app. The interest was particularly high due to the fair, which allowed our promoters to distribute many copies to target groups.
