Overview

ICMA’s Chief Executive, Bryan Pascoe, will open the event with an update on the latest priorities and activities. In addition, Joachim Heppe, Chair and Petra Wehlert, Vice Chair of the ICMA German Region, will address key regional market developments. This event will also be an opportunity to introduce Ralph Ockert, Head of Syndicate at DZ Bank who will take on the Chair position from the 1st of November, in light of Mr. Heppe’s retirement.

Finally, long-time weather presenter Tim Frühling will take us behind the scenes of the ARD Weather Competence Center at Hessischer Rundfunk. From Frankfurt, the department supplies ARD and many regional third-party television programs with weather forecasts, graphics and expert assessments of storms, disasters and climate change. He reveals why the weather forecast on television and radio is sometimes more than casual chat about sun and clouds, how a forecast is created from the raw data - and why the word "beautiful" is taboo.

Bryan Pascoe (ICMA Chief Executive) gibt anfangs einen Überblick über die letzten Entwicklungen und Aktivitäten der ICMA. Anschließend berichten Joachim Heppe (Deutschland Chair) und Petra Wehlert (Deutschland Co-Chair) von aktuellen Marktentwicklungen aus dem Regionalkomitee. Außerdem stellen sie Ralph Ockert (DZ Bank - Head of Syndicate) als neuen Deutschland Chair vor. Er übernimmt dieses Amt am 1. November 2024 vom langjährigen Deutschland Chair Joachim Heppe, der in Ruhestand geht.

Der langjährige Wettermoderator Tim Frühling nimmt uns mit hinter die Kulissen des ARD-Wetterkompetenzzentrums beim Hessischen Rundfunk. Die Abteilung versorgt von Frankfurt aus die ARD und viele regionale dritte Fernsehprogramme mit Wettervorhersagen, Grafiken und fachmännischen Einschätzungen bei Unwettern, Katastrophen und zum Klimawandel. Er verrät, warum die Wettervorhersage im Fernsehen und im Radio manchmal mehr ist als lockeres Geplauder über Sonne und Wolken, wie aus den Rohdaten eine Vorhersage entsteht – und warum das Wort „schön“ dabei tabu ist.
