For arranging an appointment click “appointments” in the task menu. Then follow the link to the Appointment Manager. Here you can search for your desired counterpart and enter an appointment.

German suppliers receive an e-mail notification with new appointments once a day and can view set up appointments online.

Furthermore you can add appointments in the displayed schedules in the supplier-booths on Monday, 19 April from 08:30 h to 09:00 h.

The GTM documents include the GTM Catalogue, which contains the profiles of all German and international participants, as well as further congress documents and general information on the GTM (e.g. Pocket Guide, Treasure Hunt Coupon Book, transfer schedules etc.). You will also receive your personal GTM name badge, which authorises to attend the workshop and the supporting programme. General information on the GTM is provided at the Hospitality Desks during the whole event.
