1. Logging in – accessing ECMS from OBS
ECMS, our Exhibitor-Content-Management-System, allows you to
present your company effectively on the trade show website.
Potential new customers can contact your business, and you can
create a lasting impression before, during and after the event.
Use your OBS access data to login to the OBS portal at
http://obs.messe.de . You should have received your access
details with the written confirmation of your stand
reservation.
If you do not have it to hand, you can obtain your ECMS
login information separately by contacting the Media-Service.
Please kindly note that in this case, your ECMS login details
will not provide access to the OBS portal.
Once logged into OBS, click on ”Order services“ in the lefthand navigation bar, and then on ”Services“ below it.
An overview will open in the middle of your screen.
Click on the section ”Highlighting your company (ECMS)“
to go to ”Company & Product Information“, and you may
find a direct link to the ECMS (”Open ECMS“´button at the
left corner of the section window).
The section Company & Product Information also contains
the contact details of the Media-Service. This department will
assist you if you have any inquiries.
