The technical side of the FIFA World Cup 2014 in Brazil
On the occasion of the FIFA World Cup 2014 in Brazil, we will report on two topics which are "made in Germany" and entail the advantage of remaining up to date through to the finale. It is interesting to note that hardly any football fan knows that Public Viewing was invented in Dortmund and that the equipment based on goal line technology comes from Würselen near Aachen. We will talk to both inventors and provide you with interesting information having an impact far beyond the limits of sport, since Public Viewing has also a socializing effect and the goal line technology will finally solve the errors committed by referees, as a result of which a football match can get completely out of hand. Stay with us up to the finale!

In preparation for the 2nd German-Senegalese Economic Summit several Business Managers are interviewed.

Hence, the energy sector and the entire food industry will face new challenges.
