Dear Readers, We are living in a time of rapid changes and diminishing certainties. This makes it all the more impor- tant to shape the future and not lose sight of the values that guide us, but rather to make them the yardstick for our actions. Axel Springer SE is transforming itself at an ever faster pace from what used to be a newspaper and magazine publisher with exclusively printed media into an international media company in the digital age. Today, we already generate 70 percent of our revenues through digital activities. The digital share of adjusted EBITDA now amounts to 80 percent. Our goal is to become the world’s leading digital publisher. For this development to succeed, we need employees who can help shape the future of the company with their ideas and their passion. The more diverse the personalities and the cultural back- grounds, the better. One thing, however, unites us all: Responsibility for the future of our planet and its resources as well as social responsibility as a publishing house and media company for freedom and democracy. It is freedom that forms the core of our company. This was already a value at the heart of the thoughts and actions of our founder Axel Springer as he repeatedly called for the unity of Germany and built his publishing house in Berlin directly on the inner-German border. Today we are building - not a stone’s throw away - our new building, on the opposite side of the street and thus in the former eastern part of the city. This, too, is a connection, a bridge that overcomes history and symbolizes freedom. Freedom is also self-determination. The freedom to make decisions, to have a choice, to obtain relevant and credible information in order to be able to choose between media offerings. Today, our offerings are not limited to professional journalism – printed and increasingly digital. Axel Springer now also has a large number of online services that used to be traditional classifi ed advertising. Whether Stepstone, the leading job exchange or Immonet as a successful provider in the real estate market, all of these offerings give you the freedom to inform yourself, form an opinion and make important life decisions. But this freedom is also under threat. All over the world journalists and reporters are prevented from doing their work. They are harassed, arrested and indeed deliberately murdered, even in Europe. 6 Axel Springer SE, Print Excerpt of the Online Sustainability Report 2017, Source: http://nachhaltigkeit.axelspringer.de Our responsibility as a media company Our Nato partner Turkey has more professional journalists in prison than any other country in the world; Egypt is the only country with as many. In spite of all the joy about the release of our reporter Deniz Yücel: In Turkey, the freedom of the press has largely been successfully abolished. As a society, we too must work time and again to ensure that we do not lose our values and our de- mocratic and constitutional order. Freedom of opinion and freedom of the press are indispensable as essential pillars of liberal social systems. In this sense, the protection of journalists and reporters in this country contributes just as much to the sustainable development of our society as does their work as truth seekers itself. However, it is not only freedom that is threatened; our planet and its unique ecosystem also need pro- tection. And we can all contribute to this. Axel Springer is currently investigating the short-term use of plastics in order to reduce this as much as possible and avoid plastic waste. We ensure that our was- te disposal complies with the latest recycling standards and we are working on controlling procedures that make our use of electrical energy transparent at all our locations worldwide in order to identify our carbon footprint and optimize it with the aid of indicators. In a world of change and technological transformation, the need for information is great. But there are also uncertainties and a lot of questions. That is why the personal exchange of views with our emplo- yees is very important to me. Since October 2017, we have regularly invited all our colleagues world- wide to the “Tuesday Townhall Talk”. Several times a year, the focus is on an exchange of ideas and an open dialog with the Executive Board, either in person at the Berlin publishing house and world- wide via livestream at the workplace or on the go on smartphones. We live in a networked working environment and also want to foster the open dialog globally. This is because today we are a group of companies with around 16,000 employees, a good half of which already work outside Germany. The best talents should be enthusiastic about Axel Springer, regardless of cultural background, origin or gender. To nurture this enthusiasm, we need an open and respectful corporate culture.

At this point, digital marketing represents a considerable part of the communication action plan along with direct marketing and public relations. Seeking to develop and integrate marketing concepts with other approaches, social marketing aims to influence behaviours that benefit individuals and communities for a greater social good – which in this study is sustainable development. However the change of behaviours and attitudes demands an emotional link where individuals recognize a benefit with that adjustment. The involvement of people in sustainable-related activities as well as in discussion is proved to be a key factor to successful engagement with the subject. Today’s Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) play an imperative role of setting themselves has an example of sustainable development agents while fostering citizenship. As main responsible for creating and disseminating knowledge, HEIs are also accountable for training future generations with sense of responsibility and commitment towards sustainability.

Ab 31.3. am Kiosk FROM BRUSSELS Europe in crisis – a great time for journalists, says POLITICO-maker Matthew Kaminski DEAR READERS, March 3 saw the press conference presenting Axel Springer‘s balance sheet. The Board publis- hed impressive figures that not only bear witness to the growth and success of the company, but also document its ongoing process of digitaliza- tion. And yet, another important topic captured te headlines this past week: What are the fundamental values of our company in these times dominated by the refugee crisis, Islamic terror and a resurgence of nationalism in Europe? At the Editorial & Management Summit, which – not by chance – was held in Paris on February 19, Mathias Döpfner gave a clear answer to this question: “Defending freedom is the reason why Axel Springer is here.” We report in detail on the Summit and introduce the newly formulated International Essentials for the Group as a whole. Our corporate culture was also one of the topics discussed in inside.mag‘s extensive interview with Matthias Döpfner for this issue. Mark Zuckerberg has left his mark on the culture of an entire generation. The “Face- book” founder‘s spirit of innovation and his ability to create entire markets continue to form the basis that has allowed his company to become one of the most valuable worldwide.

  • What Do News Aggregators Do? Evidence from Google News in Spain and Germany*
    What Do News Aggregators Do? Evidence from Google News in Spain and Germany* Joan Calzada† Ricard Gil‡ December 2018 Abstract The impact of aggregators on news outlets is ambiguous. In particular, the existing theoretical literature highlights that although aggregators create a market expansion effect when they bring visitors to news outlets, they also generate a substitution effect if some visitors switch from the news outlets to the aggregators. Using the shutdown of the Spanish edition of Google News in December of 2014 and difference-in-differences methodology, this paper empirically examines the relevance of these two effects. We show the shutdown of Google News in Spain decreased the number of daily visits to Spanish news outlets between 8% and 14%, and that this effect was larger in outlets with less overall daily visits and a lower share of international visitors. We also find evidence suggesting that the shutdown decreased online advertisement revenues and advertising intensity at news outlets. We then analyze the effect of the opt-in policy adopted by the German edition of Google News in October of 2014. Although such policy did not significantly affect the daily visits of all outlets that opted out, it reduced by 8% the number of visits of the outlets controlled by the publisher Axel Springer. Our results demonstrate the existence of a net market-expansion effect through which news aggregators increase consumers' awareness of news outlets' contents, thereby increasing their number of visits. * We thank Shane Greenstein, Avi

TECHNOLOGY Search Giant to Avoid Paying Publishing Rights Following Change in Law By SAM SCHECHNER Oct. 2, 2014 10:27 a.m. ET Google has been in a long-running legal battle over a new German law that obliges the company to secure permission to display publishers’ content.. Associated Press Google Inc. will stop posting snippets from several large German newspapers beginning next week, rather than pay for the right to post them, escalating a fight with the country’s publishers amid broader pressure on the company in Europe. On Wednesday Google said it would stop displaying both text summaries and thumbnail images from newspapers including Axel Springer SE ’s Bild—the country’s most widely sold—because of a continuing legal fight over a new German law that obliges the company to secure permission to display publishers’ content. “Given this litigation, we’ll no longer be showing snippets and thumbnails for some well-known sites (in Germany),” Philipp Justus, managing director of Google Germany, said in a blog post, adding Google 1 of 2 10/3/2014 11:39 AM Google to Stop Publishing German Newspaper Extracts - WSJ http://online.wsj.com/articles/google-to-stop-publishing-german-newspap..
