VIPsight Sponsorrules
VIPsight is a monthly survey of corporate governance in Germany, now entering its sixth year. This structured publication, appearing in English (recently Italian), is intended to provide the reader with a quick, and for non-German users comprehensive, picture of corporate governance in the period under consideration. Currently over 149,000 addressees are supplied with every issue.
With the aim of supporting the publication effort and guaranteeing critical thinking on the culture of corporate governance through independent reporting, sponsors shall, make an annual contribution of an amount they are free to determine, which may be cancelled at any time and is subject to the following provisions:
-
Sponsors shall be invited by the publisher or editor-in-chief.
-
Sponsors shall be listed in each issue of VIPsight, briefly and with their logos.
-
The listing order – with no further, e.g. verbal, differentiation – shall be according to the amount of the sponsors’ contributions, starting with the highest.
-
Sponsors shall be mentioned in connection with all suitable occasions for promoting them (e.g. CoF or ICGG seminars and other events).
-
Sponsors shall receive a free copy of VIPsight as long as the sponsoring contribution exceeds the subscription price.
-
Sponsors shall be entitled to redistribute VIPsight or indicate a suitable group of recipients to have it sent to (in reasonable amounts).
-
Sponsors shall be entitled to reduced-rate advertisements (currently one advertisement per year at 30% off the list price).
