The Lower Saxony Economy is the magazine of the Hanover Chamber of Commerce and Industry , which has been published since 1946 .
Current
The "Lower Saxony Economy" is now the magazine of the Hanover Chamber of Commerce and Industry. According to the IVW, it appears eleven times a year with a widespread circulation of around 47,000 copies and is distributed almost exclusively as a membership magazine (as of 2018). The editorial team belongs to the IHK Hannover. For the most part, the magazine goes to companies that receive it as part of their IHK membership.
The magazine, often called NW for short, is the publication organ of the IHK Hannover.
In addition to the print edition, there has been a web magazine since 2017.
All editions since 2009 can be viewed on the IHK Hannover website.
The Hanoverian IHK magazine is one of the 69 titles (as of July 2018) published by chambers of industry and commerce in Germany.
Emergence
The first edition of the Lower Saxony Economy appeared on May 15, 1946 as a sheet of the British military authorities and as an organ of the nine chambers of industry and commerce that were then established in Lower Saxony. The founding editor-in-chief was Johannes Niggemann , who headed the editorial department until 1962.
Since 1989 the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Hannover has been the sole publisher of Lower Saxony's economy. Until then, the magazine was supported by all or at least several chambers of industry and commerce in Lower Saxony.
history
The earliest forerunner of today's IHK magazine in Hanover is the "Hannoversche Wochenblatt für Handel und Gewerbe", which first appeared in March 1868. The Hanover Chamber of Commerce, established in April 1866, worked together with the trade association for the Kingdom of Hanover and thus relied on the journalistic experience of the association. Its "monthly paper", which had been published by then, was included in the "weekly paper for trade and commerce", which was expressly published as an organ of the Hanoverian chambers of commerce. Ferdinand Jugler , secretary of the Hanover Chamber of Commerce and also a member of the board of directors of the trade association, was the responsible editor . Even Fritz Hurtzig , founding president of the Hanover Chamber of Commerce, was a member of the Board.
With its forerunners going back to 1868, the Lower Saxony economy is the IHK magazine with the second oldest tradition in Germany, according to a compilation of the German Chamber of Industry and Commerce (today: German Chamber of Commerce and Industry ). Only the chambers in Chemnitz, Dresden, Plauen and Zittau had a publication organ in the form of the Deutsche Industrie-Zeitung by 1864 at the latest, and thus around four years earlier.
The last edition of the magazine, later renamed “Hannoversches Gewerbeblatt”, as an organ of the Hanover Chamber of Commerce, dates from December 1895. The Gewerbeblatt was published until the end of 1920.
Hanover did not receive a regularly published Chamber of Commerce publication until 1919 with the "News for Industry and Commerce".
In the chambers of industry and commerce in Göttingen and Hildesheim, which belonged to the IHK Hannover today and which were independent until 1931 and 1973, respectively, their own publications were published at the latest in 1911 (Göttingen) and 1912 (Hildesheim). Presumably in this tradition already a good three weeks after the end of the Second World War a "Mitteilungsblatt" appeared in Hildesheim, which was continued as "Economic News of the Hildesheim Chamber of Industry and Commerce" after the founding of the Hildesheim Chamber of Industry and Commerce and was incorporated into the "Lower Saxony Economy" at the end of 1973 .
The immediate forerunner of the “Lower Saxony Economy” was the “Wirtschaftsblatt Niedersachsen”, which appeared in 1921. It initially appeared as an official weekly of the Association of Lower Saxony Chambers of Commerce and was published on their behalf by Kurt Finkenwirth, who had just been appointed in Hanover as the Chamber of Commerce counsel .
At that time, the Chamber of Commerce Association included not only chambers in what is now the state of Lower Saxony, but also the chambers in Bielefeld, Detmold and Minden. The background to this is efforts to create a unified Lower Saxony economic area. In this respect, the leading article of the first edition with the title "Lower Saxony", signed by the then Chamber President Fritz Beindorff , appears programmatically.
Wirtschaftsblatt Niedersachsen was last published as a magazine of the former Gauwirtschaftskammer Hannover-Braunschweig and East-Hannover as well as the Chamber of Commerce Braunschweig and Hildesheim on February 10, 1945. In the Hannover City Archives there are memos from Johannes Niggemann that date from the second half of April 1945 to the British Military government and which point to the importance of a press made by German editors, especially in the economic and ecclesiastical area. Niggemann saw sufficient acceptance for a newly emerging press. A good year later, the first edition of “Lower Saxony Economy” appeared.
