Technology & Business Cooperation Days 2025

Introduction

By making an application, the following “General Terms of Participation” are deemed to be accepted. This also applies for any “Special Terms of Participation” that may be disclosed to the participants or applicants (hereinafter “Contractual Partner”) for certain events.

1. Application

Applications for cooperation events are made via the application function on the B2Match internet site. Applications are generally considered in the order of receipt; particular selection criteria for certain events are hereby unaffected. The organizer confirms the application after the close of applications at the latest, unless confirmation has been excluded. The contract comes into effect upon receipt of the confirmation or upon exclusion of confirmation at the time of application. If an application cannot be considered, the organizer will inform the applicant of this.

2. Cancellation of an event

The organizer is entitled to cancel events, in particular when applications are insufficient. Any claim to damages compensation is excluded. This also applies in the case of (short-term) cancellation, even when it is no longer possible to inform participants in advance.

3. Exclusion from participation

The organizer is entitled to exclude participants from further participation in certain cases (e.g. disturbance of the event and business process).

4. Liability

The liability of the organizer, the owners of event premises, or persons employed by these for damages, in particular for those arising from accidents, damage, loss, or theft, is excluded, unless the damages are based on intent or gross negligence on the part of the organizer or his/her vicarious agents.

5. Storing of data

By applying, the applicant agrees that his/her personal data will be stored by the organizer and, where appropriate, published in a list of participants and passed on to speakers/lecturers. The data will be used for event management related purposes and to assist participants before and during the event if required. The event organizers may also import participants’ contact data into their CRM systems for reporting purposes or to inform participants about future events.

6. Image recording

By applying, participants in cooperation events declare their consent to the recording of the image or potentially appearing in film recordings of their person in connection with the event, as well as to the use and publication of these Images /film recordings for the purposes of public news coverage of the cooperation event. The organizer also notifies hereby that the photographs / films can be accessed on the internet worldwide by the public. Subsequent use of these photos / films by third parties therefore cannot be generally ruled out.  

7. Uploads

In uploading files on to the platform (including any photographic material), participants who upload (Uploader) guarantee that all rights to the uploaded material necessary for the publication on websites accessible worldwide for an unlimited time period have been secured by the Uploader on time and on their own authority. This includes, in particular, copyright and performance protection, trademark and personality rights and in this context, in particular, reproduction and dissemination rights and the processing rights required for publication. Further, the Uploader ensures that the organizer is not required to credit the copyright holder/ performance protection rights holder of the uploaded material by name and that the uploaded material does not contravene statutory regulations. These guarantees mentioned above are necessary since the organizer will not check uploaded content for any possible infringements of rights without receiving any special indications that this is necessary.  

By uploading material, the rights of use described above are transferred non-exclusively to the organizer. This does not include a transfer of these rights to third parties. In return for the transfer of rights of use, the Uploader is given the right to publish the uploaded material on the website.  

The Uploader releases the organizer at first request from all claims by third parties that the uploaded material violates their rights or contravenes statutory provisions. This also applies when claims are made against the organizer’s representative or vicarious agent rather than the organizer. This release also includes the compensation of any costs incurred by the organizer or his/her representatives or vicarious agents as a result of the exercising of rights.  

Finally, the Uploader guarantees that the uploaded content is free from viruses, worms, Trojans, or other programs and/or data which may endanger or affect the functionality or the existence of the platform.  

8. Compliance

Participants are aware that participation in cooperation events must be in accordance with the compliance guidelines of their institution.

9. Ancillary agreements

Ancillary agreements require the written form to become effective.

10. Applicable law / Place of jurisdiction

The laws of the Federal Republic of Germany shall apply. The exclusive place of jurisdiction is Hannover, Germany.
