Herzlich willkommen an Bord: FORUM begrüßt neue Auszubildende! 🚀

Zum Ausbildungsstart ging es für unsere neuen Nachwuchstalente bei der FORUM MEDIA GROUP und der FORUM VERLAG HERKERT GMBH direkt auf gemeinsame Mission: Bei einer Geocaching-Tour durch Merching lösten sie zusammen mit den im Unternehmen bereits tätigen Azubis und dual Studierenden viele knifflige Aufgaben. So meisterten sie gemeinsam Herausforderungen und wuchsen von Beginn an als Team zusammen. 🗺️🔍

Nach einem stärkenden Mittagessen und einem Rundgang durchs Unternehmen begrüßte Marcus Edholzer, Geschäftsführer der FVHG, die Neuankömmlinge herzlich und gab ihnen motivierende Worte für ihren Start mit auf den Weg. Ein persönliches Willkommensgeschenk rundete den Onboarding-Tag ab, bevor es in die jeweiligen Abteilungen ging.

Ob als angehende Fachinformatiker für Systemintegration oder Anwendungsentwicklung, Medienkauffrau Digital und Print oder Kauffrau für Marketingkommunikation: Wir wünschen unseren neuen Talenten viel Neugier, Freude am Lernen und Erfolg für die gemeinsame Ausbildungszeit! 🎓

Together, they overcame challenges and bonded as a team right from the start.🗺️🔍

After a group lunch and a tour of the company, Marcus Edholzer, General Manager of FVHG, warmly welcomed the newcomers and offered them words of encouragement for their start. A personal welcome gift rounded out the onboarding day before everyone headed to their respective departments.

2026 General Manager Meeting: Learning Together, Growing Together 🌍

At the 2026 General Manager Meeting, the managing directors of our global FORUM Group gathered at Hernstein Castle near Vienna. Local leaders from Europe, North America, Australia, and Asia used the time to exchange experiences, learn about successful approaches, and collaboratively develop new ideas.

“The most important thing was to continue working toward our shared goal: organic growth. To that end, we shared best practices and engaged in in-depth discussions,” says COO/CFO Katrin Krauss-Herkert, summarizing the central focus of the meeting.

What works in other markets? Which ideas can be adapted? And how can we, as an international group, work even more closely together? Through discussions, presentations, and a joint innovation workshop, best practices were shared, perspectives were broadened, and concrete ideas for further development were gathered.

Even outside the official program, the meeting provided opportunities for personal interactions and shared experiences in Vienna. This allowed existing connections to be strengthened, new ones to be forged, and a solid foundation for day-to-day collaboration to be established.

The 2026 General Manager Meeting demonstrated that FORUM is more than the sum of its individual companies. Through shared knowledge, mutual support, and strong personal connections, we are growing even closer together as a global group.

Medals on a world tour: The Augsburg Company Run 2026 still makes an impact – A look at nextmedia Australia 🏅🌍

It was the sporting highlight of the year: 124 FORUM employees from 11 countries across four continents took part in the Augsburg Company Run 2026. And everyone earned a medal!

By now, the medals have also reached our international runners, including the team at nextmedia in Australia. The presentation created a great atmosphere there: “It was such a lovely initiative, and it was really nice to be able to celebrate everyone’s effort together,” says General Manager Arek Widawski.

And the best part: Since the company run, a small running group has formed at nextmedia and now gets active together on a regular basis. It’s a wonderful example of how this event creates lasting connections and inspires people to move more. 🏃‍️🏃‍

Thank you very much to everyone around the world who participated or cheered on their colleagues. We’re already looking forward to next year’s company run!

Our FORUM World Cup prediction champions 2026 have been crowned! 🏆⚽

The FIFA World Cup is over, and the champions have been crowned – not just in the tournament, but also in our internal company prediction game. We’re thrilled that so many colleagues around the world joined in and cheered along!

Congratulations to our three FORUM Prediction Champions:
🥇 Katrin (FZS)
🥈 Tünde (FMG)
🥉 Julian (FVHG)

The three of them can look forward to great FORUM merchandise as well as a summer ice cream gift card. 🍦

The company ranking was exciting, too: Here, FZS came out on top ahead of FMG and our Polish subsidiary. This means that, in addition to winning the individual standings, FZS also secured first place in collective soccer knowledge. 🎉

Congratulations to the winners and many thanks to everyone who participated in the prediction game!

FORUM with a new claim – inspired by our employees 💡

Our new claim “Knowledge for Success”, was developed directly from the ideas of our employees worldwide. They were invited to submit suggestions – which were then distilled into a shared vision that connects our rich history with our forward-looking perspective.

The slogan captures what drives our FORUM teams every day: sharing knowledge, providing guidance, and helping people worldwide achieve success. With high-quality information, education and solutions.

A well-rounded update: Our logo has also been carefully refreshed. Modern typography and gentle curves give it a more dynamic look – without losing its familiar identity.

🧠🚀“Knowledge for Success” – our mission, our promise.

Wie sieht der Alltag in einem Medienunternehmen aus und wie arbeiten dort die Redaktionen? 🤔 Das interessierte die Schülerzeitungs-AG des Rudolf-Diesel-Gymnasiums Augsburg und so luden wir die Mitglieder für exklusive Einblicke in die Medienwelt zu uns nach Merching ein. 📚📰📱

Die 13 Schülerinnen und Schüler erfuhren mehr über die Geschichte von FORUM, den Arbeitsalltag einer Mediengruppe und die vielfältigen Berufsfelder – von Redaktion über Marketing und Kundenservice bis hin zur IT. Ein besonderes Highlight: ein Workshop zur Produktentwicklung, bei dem kreative Ideen entstanden. 💡

Auch Tipps rund um Berufswahl, Bewerbung und Praktikumsmöglichkeiten kamen nicht zu kurz. Wir freuen uns sehr über das große Interesse und den inspirierenden Austausch! 😊

What is everyday working life like at a media company, and how do the editorial teams work there? 🤔 The student newspaper from Rudolf-Diesel-Gymnasium in Augsburg was curious to find out, so we invited the members to Merching for an exclusive look into the world of media. 📚📰📱

The 13 students learned more about the history of FORUM, the day-to-day work of a media group, and the wide range of career paths – from editorial to marketing and customer service to IT. A special highlight was a product development workshop, during which creative ideas emerged. 💡

There was also plenty of advice on choosing a career, applying for jobs, and internship opportunities. We were thrilled by the great interest and the inspiring discussion! 😊

FORUM beim Sportwochenende des TSV Merching ⚽

Sonne, Sport & strahlende Teamplayer: Als Partner des TSV Merching e.V. war es uns eine Freude, beim großen Sportwochenende dabei gewesen zu sein!

Mit unserem FORUM-Stand, vielen Info-Materialien und Give-aways waren wir mitten im Geschehen. Besonders unsere FORUM-Torwand sorgte beim jungen Publikum für große Begeisterung, sportlichen Ehrgeiz und jede Menge Jubel – Glücksklee-Lutscher natürlich inklusive. 🍀

In lockeren Gesprächen mit Eltern, Verwandten und Trainer:innen konnten wir außerdem zeigen: Ob Praktikum, Ausbildung, duales Studium oder Direkteinstieg – die Möglichkeiten, sich als Teamplayer bei FORUM einzubringen, sind vielfältig.

FORUM at TSV Merching’s Sports Weekend ⚽

Sunshine, sports, and smiling team players: As a partner of TSV Merching, we were delighted to be part of this year’s major sports weekend!

With our FORUM booth, plenty of informational materials, and giveaways, we were right in the middle of the action. Our FORUM soccer target wall was especially popular with the younger crowd, inspiring lots of enthusiasm, sporting ambition, and cheers – with lucky clover lollipops included, of course. 🍀

In relaxed conversations with parents, family members, and coaches, we also had the opportunity to show that there are many ways to become part of the FORUM team: whether through an internship, vocational training, a dual-study program, or by starting a career with us directly.

FORUM unterstützte das Transalp-Projekt des Gymnasiums bei St. Anna Augsburg 🚵

418 Kilometer, 8.163 Höhenmeter und jede Menge Teamgeist: Die Schüler:innen des P-Seminar „Transalp“ haben ihre Alpenüberquerung von Füssen bis zum Gardasee erfolgreich gemeistert.

Als FORUM MEDIA GROUP haben wir das Projekt mit einer Geldspende sowie FORUM-Stirnbändern unterstützt, die bei Anstiegen, Regen und sportlichem Einsatz genau richtig kamen. 💪

Die Tour zeigte: Fokussiert bleiben, zusammenhalten und auch in herausfordernden Momenten optimistisch nach vorn zu blicken – das zählt in den Bergen genauso wie im (Arbeits-)Leben als echter Teamplayer!

Wir gratulieren dem gesamten Transalp-Team zu dieser tollen Leistung! 🎉

FORUM Supports St. Anna Augsburg High School’s Transalp Project 🚵

418 kilometers, 8,163 meters of elevation gain, and plenty of team spirit: The students in the “Transalp” project seminar successfully completed their Alpine crossing from Füssen, Germany, to Lake Garda, Italy.

As the FORUM MEDIA GROUP, we supported the project with a financial contribution and FORUM headbands—just what the team needed for steep climbs, rainy weather, and plenty of athletic effort. 💪

The journey showed that staying focused, supporting one another, and looking ahead with optimism even in challenging moments matter just as much in the mountains as they do in working life—as a true team player.

Congratulations to the entire Transalp team on this fantastic achievement! 🎉

Summer vibes at FORUM! 🌞

Last Thursday, July 2, we celebrated our summer party in perfect weather at our headquarters in Merching. The afternoon started of with fun team challenges testing sportsmanship and skill. This included a Carrera track, where the cars were powered by team members pedaling vigorously on bicycles from Karussel Land, and a race on Bobby Cars.

Later, delicious food was served from the grill that was operated by some of our department heads – it was a wonderful afternoon full of team spirit. Frozen white w**e, ice cream and the photo booth in the shape of a camping trailer by KAJA-Fotobox were absolute highlights! 🍦📸

A big thank you to all colleagues who contributed salads, cakes and other delicious food – and to everyone who made this event so special. 😊
