Two important companies in the state capital continue to form a close partnership. Messe Düsseldorf is extending its cooperation with the Düsseldorfer EG for the coming season and remains a team partner of the Red-Yellows. Visually, the company will be present in the 2020/21 season with, among other things, an under-ice advertising campaign, a TV board as well as a TV spot and on the LED panels.
Stefan Adam, CEO DEG Eishockey GmbH: "Both Messe Düsseldorf and DEG are figureheads of the state capital Düsseldorf. Therefore, we are naturally very pleased that the company continues to place its trust in our club and that it will continue its partnership even in more difficult times".
Wolfram N. Diener, CEO of Messe Düsseldorf GmbH: "The cooperation with DEG is very important for us as a trade fair. We want to continue to make the city of Düsseldorf attractive for visitors and residents. This naturally includes Düsseldorf's EG with its wide-reaching platform and the experience of ice hockey. We are looking forward to moving further into the future together and to a great and exciting 2020/21 season".
