Germans in Switzerland get their own newspaper

The first issue of the *Deutsche Wochenzeitung Schweiz* will be published on November 6. Published by Acoma Verlag, the newspaper aims to promote integration and help Germans become more familiar with their adopted homeland.

The German Weekly Newspaper Switzerland is published every Friday with a circulation of 25,000 copies (start edition 10,000). It is sent to interested companies, hotels, clubs, associations and private households. The title is supported by the web platform Deutschewochenzeitung.com, which also shows the BRD news daily and provides the weekly summary for the print edition. The sister editions in the Netherlands and Denmark will be launched at the beginning of January.
The new title will be managed by four editors and a team of two in the marketing office. The editorial team consists of two German and two Swiss journalists. Editor-in-chief and publishing director is Ole U. Glausen. All employees work from home and use the usual IT tools for internal communication.
