12 million Swiss francs for tourism around Landwasser Viaduct
A tourist «experience area»—the Landwasserwelt—is to be created around the historic RhB Landwasser Viaduct. To this end, the Graubünden government and the RhB approved loans totaling 7.4 million francs on Thursday. The project, with a total budget of 12 million Swiss francs, is scheduled to open in the summer of 2024.

A converted "train shuttle" is planned from Filisur to the Landwasser viaduct. For this, stops and edges, as well as a viewing platform must be built. Furthermore, an adventure farm is to be built below the viaduct, as the RhB wrote in a statement on Thursday.
A tree glider, a model railway park and adapted existing offers are to round off the project. The aim is to make the area around the Unesco World Heritage site a tourist experience and to bring added value to the region, Simon Rageth of RhB's corporate communications told Keystone-SDA.
System-relevant infrastructure
The RhB allocated 4.5 million francs for the project on Thursday. The Graubünden government classified the project as system-relevant and approved 2.9 million francs. The rest will be contributed by several local communities and private individuals.
The next step is the approval process. The project is being led by the Landwasserwelt association, which was founded specifically for this purpose. It consists of the RhB, the local communities and tourism partners.
The association markets the Landwasser Viaduct as "the landmark of Graubünden". With the positioning as a railroad valley and an overall product around the world-famous viaduct, the region has a unique selling point, it said in a statement in March this year. In order to use the potential, however, the forces must be bundled.
The fact that the timing around the announcement of the credits was so close to the RhB's successful world record was a "nice coincidence," Rageth said. On Saturday, the Rhaetian Railway ran the world's longest passenger train over the Landwasser Viaduct (Werbewoche.ch reported). (SDA)
VW to suspend advertising on Twitter after Musk takeover
With a purchase price of $44 billion, Elon Musk is counting on Twitter to generate more revenue—but major advertisers are being cautious. Meanwhile, thousands of employees could lose their jobs on Friday.

November 4, 2022
Volkswagen has joined big companies in putting their advertising on Twitter on hold following the takeover by tech billionaire Elon Musk. The Wolfsburg-based company cited the U.S. short messaging service's announcement on Friday that it would revise guidelines for the placement of such content as the reason.
The VW Group has now "recommended its brands to pause their paid activities on the platform until further notice," it said. This is not a definitive advertising stop: "We are monitoring the situation closely and will decide on the next steps depending on developments.
The months-long back-and-forth over Musk's plans to join Twitter, as well as his ideas about the company's direction and how to deal with employees, had recently caused turmoil. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO completed the purchase of the social network for around $44 billion last week.
Musk promised to crack down on fake accounts and spam, and to make Twitter "the most accurate source of information in the world." On the other hand, he himself recently spread a link to a conspiracy theory about the attack on Paul Pelosi, the husband of U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Musk is also known for unpredictable communication in other ways.
There is also resistance from users to his plans to offer the coveted blue checkmark for verified accounts as part of a paid subscription. Musk wrote: "To all the complainers, please keep complaining, but it's eight dollars." Subscribers will also see only half of the usual ads. On Twitter, advertisements are played into the user's timeline as "paid tweets.
A permanent withdrawal of major advertisers would be a problem for Twitter and Musk. The service has recently been in the red. Musk also took out loans of around $13 billion for the takeover deal - and according to media reports, servicing them requires more money than the Twitter business generates in free funds. Shrinking revenues would be particularly inconvenient.
Last week, Volkswagen's US rival General Motors had already declared that it would at least suspend its advertising activities on the platform. Pharmaceutical group Pfizer and food giants Mondelez and General Mills are said to have taken similar steps.
Possibly even more threatening for Twitter's advertising business, which accounts for around 90 percent of sales: The major international advertising groups are also keeping their distance. The industry giant IPG, which manages billion-dollar advertising budgets for companies such as Coca-Cola, American Express, Levi Strauss and Spotify, is said to have advised customers to stop advertising on Twitter just a few days after Musk's takeover.
"It's not yet clear where Elon Musk stands," Martin Sorrell, founder of the world's largest advertising holding company WPP, said this week, referring to Twitter's future policies. Companies, therefore, were waiting. "Customers don't want conflict, they don't want controversy."
VW has been paying more attention to the environment of its online advertising for some time. There was sharp criticism, for example, when an error in an automatic filtering program for playout led to an ad landing on the right-wing U.S. news portal "Breitbart." The carmaker took the reappraisal of a video spot on Instagram that was perceived as racist as an opportunity to review its internal award processes.
Twitter employees were to be told by e-mail on Friday whether they will still work for the online service after the takeover. According to media reports, 3700 jobs could be eliminated, around one in two. Offices will remain closed on Friday and all access cards will be deactivated, an email sent to employees said.
"If you are in an office or on your way to an office, please return home." He said the measure was intended to ensure the safety of employees as well as Twitter systems and user data.
The move is likely to be a precautionary measure to rule out any possible protests by laid-off employees. It would not be unprecedented: In November 2017, an employee deactivated the Twitter account of then U.S. President Donald Trump on his last day on the job. It took around ten minutes before the account was back online.
The circular said the job cuts were "unfortunately necessary to ensure the company's success in the future."
For Twitter employees, the circular email was the first official communication since Musk completed the purchase last Thursday, according to, among others, the Washington Post reported. Originally, a general meeting with Musk had been announced for the following Friday. This was canceled - just like a later date for it, it said with reference to employees.
On Thursday, a lawsuit was already filed in San Francisco on behalf of several employees, accusing Twitter of violating California labor law with poor communications surrounding the layoffs. The lawyers are seeking class action status. (SDA)

Zurich is a great place to live and spend your vacation. The gastronomic offer is broad, the nightlife varied, the waters clean, nature right on the doorstep. For this very reason, however, the region is also recommended as a venue for sustainable business events: In recent years, a wide range of responsible and environmentally friendly services has been established here in the event and meeting sector.
Schroten is currently presenting a small selection of these in a LinkedIn campaign that is tailored to event planners with a focus on sustainability and is being played out to them in a targeted manner. For example, the target group can learn more about climate-neutral high-tech congresses at the Kongresshaus, highly efficient urban farming at Eat Umami, team events such as "Taste The Waste," where supposedly surplus food is cooked in a playful way, or how the Sorrell Hotel Zürichberg interprets social responsibility.
The seven films live from their simple narrative form, which conveys knowledge quickly, compactly, and vividly - even without having the sound on your device. Since summer 2022, they have been used at regular intervals on LinkedIn in German and English.

New design and new sections for Schweizer Illustrierte
The people magazine Schweizer Illustrierte is strengthening its DNA and has been appearing since Friday with a refreshed layout, new sections and an expanded lifestyle service section.
Editorial

November 4, 2022
For SI Editor-in-Chief Silvia Binggeli, who took over the title in February, it's back to the roots. "I started my journalistic career over twenty years ago as a journalism student at the Swiss Illustratedn began. I'm very excited to now lead the cult magazine into the future with a great team." The Swiss Illustrated will appear from Friday with a refreshed layout and additional new sections.
Personalities in focus
Meeting and showing personalities in private is part of the DNA of the SI. There are now additional sections: In the future, two Swiss personalities from different fields will exchange views on current social issues in the "Gipfeltreffen" discussions. In "Meine Kulturwoche" (My Culture Week), celebrities reveal which films, books, concerts or art exhibitions inspire them. In addition, Swiss people who have moved abroad talk about what they experience abroad and what they miss about Switzerland.
In the back section of the magazine, the service pages are visually upgraded and expanded with lifestyle: Interior, watches and sustainability are new additions to the established topics of travel, health, food, cars, fashion and beauty. The expanded lifestyle section also appears in the French-language sister magazine L'Illustré.
Expanded view, refreshed layout
The logo again gets a prominent appearance and moves to the left margin on the cover. The weekly content will be visible on the cover in all its diversity. In the magazine, clear structures, new fonts and tidy graphics will ensure better reader guidance. The pictures - the trademark of a magazine - are given space. The service section will be visually enhanced. Although playful elements freshen up the appearance, the reader guidance has become calmer and clearer.
"The SI content formula is not new - but we want to strengthen it. Loyal readers should not have the feeling that they are holding a completely different magazine in their hands - just a refreshed one, one that brings well-known personalities closer to them each week, but also presents newcomers, lets them discover and shows the diversity of Switzerland," explains Binggeli. "We keep an eye on social developments. Above all, we want to surprise and entertain with honest, relevant stories and strong images of personalities."
More revenues for RTL in the first nine months
The RTL television group posted significantly higher revenue in the first nine months. However, the outlook is clouding over.
Editorial

November 4, 2022
From July to September, RTL increased its consolidated revenues by almost a fifth year-on-year to 1.7 billion euros, as the Group announced on Friday. For the first nine months, this represents an increase of twelve percent to 5 billion euros.
The company benefited significantly from its global content business with Fremantle, which generated almost 28 percent more revenue. Advertising revenues remained almost stable.
In the first nine months, RTL Group gained significantly more paying subscribers for its streaming platforms RTL+ in Germany and Videoland in the Netherlands. At just under 4.8 million paying customers, the figure was around 40 percent higher than a year earlier.
However, due to delayed deliveries of productions and content, RTL expects revenues in the current year to be lower than announced. Revenues are expected to rise to 7.2 billion euros. Group CEO Thomas Rabe had already previously adjusted the annual targets. The revenue target for this year had previously been around 7.3 to 7.5 billion euros.
"Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, we expect the difficult environment in the advertising markets, especially in Germany, to continue," Rabe said. (SDA)

Grover launches an attention-grabbing TV campaign in Germany and Spain. Foundry created six spots for this, addressing different target groups based on their rental behavior and motivations. The campaign will run cross-media on all German and Spanish channels.
"Grover It" aims to pick up on trends that can be seen on various social media channels. The core of the campaign is based on content found on platforms such as TikTok and Instagram. Previous campaign data, customer insights and trending topics were analyzed to define the content of the communication. The results can be seen in six videos, including a manifesto video.
The company operates entirely online, which is why a digital momentum was set in the communication, through the exclusive use of vertical videos - which is unusual in advertising.
All spots will be broadcast on TV and on various online platforms in Germany and Spain. By establishing the brand name as a verb, the campaign pursues the long-term goal of making "Grover it" part of the culture and synonymous with renting technology.
Foundry Berlin was responsible from creative conception to execution. The spots were produced and directed by Sugar Rush Productions and director Ivo Mostertman.
Responsible at Grover: Tim Navis (Vice President of Marketing), Gunes Guler (Brand and Localization Manager).

The last Gold Effies go to Wunderman Thompson and Jung von Matt Limmat
The final Gold Effies for this year’s «Effie Awards Switzerland 2022» have been awarded: Jung von Matt Limmat has won another Effie for its “Sixth Sense Challenge” campaign for Zweifel, and Wunderman Thompson has reaped a gold haul for its “Handbutts” campaign for Geberit.

A total of 88 projects were submitted for the Effie Awards Switzerland 2022, for which two jury rounds were held. First, 50 jurors selected 41 finalist projects. Then 21 jurors - each under the leadership of jury president Peter Felser - selected a total of 24 winning projects. Which projects are involved here, has Advertisingweek.ch unveiled in various stages over the past few weeks, including six bronze, twelve silver and two gold Effies.
So far, the agencies Publicis/Notch and Webrepublic, Rod Kommunikation, Wirz, Sir Mary and Rod Kommunikation were able to secure a Gold Effie 2022 (Werbewoche.ch reported). Now another Gold Effie goes to the account of Wunderman Thompson, and Jung von Matt Limmat can also claim a Gold trophy. This means that all of this year's bronze, silver and gold winning projects have been determined.
Which of the agencies will win the Grand Effie will be decided exclusively at the award night on November 10.
Geberit Aqua Clean "Handbutts" (Category: Social Media)
The "Handbutts" campaign achieved an increase in all relevant KPIs: +355% engagement rate, +105% view-through rate, +33.9% conversion rate, and up to an incredible +1700% in the number of interactions.
What you can achieve with a bare bottom. The social media activation for Geberit AquaClean impressively shows how effective a strong and, above all, surprising visual can still be in a world flooded with content.
In order to communicate the benefits of the Geberit shower toilet - cleans the butt with water - quickly and, above all, in an eye-catching way, Wunderman Thompson staged a naked butt that later turns out not to be a butt at all. After all, what is supposedly forbidden makes one all the more curious.
The Handbutt video plays with the rules of social media - and breaks them. Wunderman Thompson's idea proves that with a bold idea and an even bolder implementation, you can prevail even in the clutter of social media. Even with a brand from a category that is usually completely lost in this channel.

Doubt Chips "Sixth Sense" (Category: Brand Image)
Zweifel not only maintained its position as the favorite brand, but also significantly increased it by almost 14 percent compared to the previous year.
In order to maintain the No. 1 position in the long term, the brand Zweifel must inspire a new generation of fans who are interested in something new instead of something familiar. Target group research shows: The combination of well-known taste competence and the target group's interest in unusual experiences creates a new approach.
Hence the idea: experiment instead of message - with taste tests as the core of communication, the unusual is achieved in content and form, which is what the new generation is looking for: The Sixth Sense Challenge - an interactive taste test for young chips lovers that invites them to hunt for the secret ingredients via clues on the social web. Zweifel thus not only maintained its position as the favorite brand, but also significantly increased it by almost 14 percent compared to the previous year.

Silver: "Under the Influence - Let's Break the Silence."
A visually reduced animation design combined with a factual narrative, sensitively reflects the emotional world of a dramatic life situation. The film manages to underline the shadowy world of the protagonist authentically and in all consistency.
Gold: Series Sennheisser Ambeo Soundbars: Documentary/Primal, TV Spot/Primal
The film shows in a surprising way how true-to-life the sounds of a soundbar can be transmitted. This goes so far that wild animals think they have heard their own kind. The soundbar manages to catapult the listener into the middle of the scenery. This kind of storytelling captivates the audience from beginning to end.
A film with a lot of sensitivity in dealing with the subject and the protagonists. As a viewer you feel the direct suffering on a very moving and honest narrative. The highs and lows, respectively. Hopes and setbacks let you participate in the story.

The Swiss Muesumspass Foundation, based in Zurich, aims to promote cultural diversity as well as education and knowledge in society and to communicate and disseminate these through the operation of a Swiss Museum Pass. The goals of the Christmas campaign are to make museum visits more attractive and to increase visitor frequency.

Young people today are under enormous pressure to perform. And not only if they want to become top athletes or pursue a singing career. Even ordinary young people have to finish school, shape their professional future among endless options, and master adulthood. This often leads to fear of failure, excessive demands and self-doubt.
The Youth Mental Coach Getty Russo has made it its business to focus on this target group and to accompany the young people on their way. For this clear positioning of the offer as well as the formation of the brand and its communicative implementation, he relied on the know-how of the agency at the airport in St.Gallen. The entire brand world, the website, advertisements, PR and print products were implemented.
Customer: Gaetano Russo (Youth Mental Coach). Responsible at agency at the airport: René Eugster (overall responsibility), Elia Vogt (art direction, illustration), Maximilian Eugster (consulting).
