It’s said in a song: "Into the water drops a stone, very secretly and quietly although it’s so small, it draws his circle." Many circles make significant wave in the sea. After the Chernobyl nuclear disaster 25 years ago there is still a wave of helpfulness today. Thanks to many sponsors and volunteers even the club "Children of Chernobyl" from Winden invite again 14 children from Belarus for a relaxing holiday in the Nassau region which allow them to recover from the long-term consequences of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.

Innovation and Brand Slogan –
Standard and Reality
In market slogans and hence in corporate design often an innovative standard is expressed. This standard is documented as part of the corporate identity in the company's philosophy and their actions. This causes standard and reality to be congruent, and credibility is provided in equal measure within the company as well as on the market.

More than 100 companies of Rheinland-Pfalz and Saarland have followed the invitation of the general consul Mr. Fedor Khorokhordin, Mr. Rainer Trumm and Mr. Matthias Richter of the BVMW for a Russian German conference in Bonn at the 15th of April.
There is a high interest of small and medium sized companies in German for partnerships in Russia. That meets the demand of Russia in order to establish a stronger middle class in Russia too. It’s the ambitious target that the Russian middle class should make up 40% of the GDP and 50% of employment within the next years. That opens even opportunities for further German-Russian partnerships.

Securing pole position for the restart of the Russian recovery
Many brands are now investing in the Russian market
For Ferrero, the crisis in Russia appears to be over – and that is not the only place where the business is returning to growth. When the Russian factory goes online in October, the management here in Germany will also breathe a sigh of relief: “Capacity is being used.”
Unilever has begun construction of an ice cream factory in the Tula region of Russia. The group intends to invest a total of US$140 m at the 60,000 m² site by 2014.
Beverage and snack group PepsiCo Inc. aims to invest a billion US dollars in Russia over the next three years. A few days ago, CEO Indra Nooyi opened a new bottling plant in Domodedovo near Moscow.
The planned market entry of WalMart is intensifying competition. In June, after eleven years of abstinence from the market, Carrefour opened an 8,000 m² store in Moscow’s “Filion” shopping centre. Two more stores are set to follow this year.
Like Carrefour, REWE not only intends to grow under its own steam. Regardless of the negotiations with Matra, REWE aims to open 20 new stores.

Understanding innovations as opportunities in the crisis and taking action
Within the framework of the first German Non-food Congress staged by the “Lebensmittelzeitung” and the Conference Group, the speakers pointed to some ways out of the crisis. But as explained by Dr. Diane Roberts from Price Water House Coopers, although innovations are understood as an opportunity, there is still a major gap between knowledge and action.
Accordingly, a survey by the Institute of Trade & International Marketing at the University of Saarland in co-operation with PWC came to the conclusion that more than 75% of companies surveyed regard innovative strength as important but only 32% of manufacturers and 20% of dealers actually have an innovation management system in place.
But this desire for innovation can often only be followed by action when this is supported by corporate management and innovations are reflected in the corporate principles and strategies. This connection and commitment to innovation were only recently illustrated by Dr. Franz-Josef Konert, Managing Director of Melitta Haushaltsgeräte GmbH & Co. KG, in internal communication on Melitta online.
