Heidelberg customer prints Olympics results in Turin as and when
they happen
Results will arrive straight from the Olympics venues at a
print shop in Turin, where they will be put into a newsletter,
printed, and distributed to German Olympics participants, teams of
organizers, and guests at the Deutsches Haus. Heidelberger
Druckmaschinen AG (Heidelberg) is involved in its third games in
succession as a "purveyor of news" at the Olympics.
Following Sydney in 2000 and the Athens Summer Olympics in 2004,
Heidelberg is now gearing up for the Winter Olympics in Turin from
February 10-26, 2006.
A daily eight-page newsletter, printed on a Speedmaster SM
74, is being produced in collaboration with Italian customer Moglia
and under the editorial control of the Handelsblatt sports desk. As
it is primarily aimed at visitors to the Deutsches Haus, it is only
right that the operator of the Deutsches Haus, Deutsche
Sportmarketing Gesellschaft (German Sport Marketing), is also on
board. These professional teams will ensure that all the results
from the 84 competitions in the 15 disciplines are recorded,
processed, printed, and then distributed. The service is
specifically aimed at the 162-strong German team, organizers, and
guests at the Deutsches Haus in Turin.
There will also be a newsletter from Heidelberg at the
Paralympics, which are being held immediately afterwards from March
10-19, 2006 in the Piemont region.
This newsletter will be produced by an agency specializing in
sports for the disabled (RUGO) in conjunction with the Berliner
Morgenpost and the Goethe Institute.
