Attendee List 2024
Die jazzahead! ist der weltweit größte Branchentreff der internationalen Jazzszene. 2023 trafen sich rund 2.800 Fachteilnehmer aus über 51 Ländern in Bremen. Wenn Sie wissen wollen, welche Firmen bisher an der kommenden Edition teilnehmen, dann werfen Sie hier einen Blick in unsere aktuelle Teilnehmerliste:
Als registrierter Teilnehmer haben Sie die Möglichkeit, über das Teilnehmerportal die Kontaktdaten derjenigen Teilnehmenden zu erfahren, die der Veröffentlichung ihrer Daten zugestimmt haben, und so schon vor der jazzahead! miteinander in Kontakt zu treten.
Wir warnen vor Betrugs- und Phishing-E-Mails
Unsere Teilnehmer*innen wurden wiederholt per E-Mail von einer Firma kontaktiert, die behauptet, die jazzahead! 2023 Besucher/Teilnehmer*innen-Liste zu verkaufen. Bitte antworten Sie nicht auf deren Anfrage! Wir möchten Sie darauf hinweisen, dass wir in keiner Weise mit dieser Firma in Verbindung stehen. Der Markenname „jazzahead!“ wurde ohne unser Wissen und Einverständnis für diese Mailings verwendet. Sollten Sie Mails dieser Art erhalten, raten wir Ihnen, diese zu ignorieren und zu entsorgen. Als jazzahead!-Teilnehmer mit einer für das laufende Jahr gültigen Registrierung haben Sie über unser Teilnehmerportal jederzeit Zugriff auf die detaillierte Teilnehmerliste.
Weitere Warnungen vor Betrugsmails lesen Sie bitte hier:
Warnung vor EXPO GUIDE, S.C., Event Fair, EHS und anderen
In den vergangenen Jahren wurden unsere Aussteller immer wieder auf dem Postwege von Firmen wie EXPO GUIDE, S.C. oder Event Fair angeschrieben. Bitte antworten Sie nicht auf diese Datenabfrage! Wir möchten Sie darauf hinweisen, dass wir in keinerlei Beziehungen zu diesen Firmen stehen. Die Nutzung unseres Namens „jazzahead!“ wurde ohne unser Wissen und unsere Zustimmung für solche Mailings missbraucht. Weitere Informationen zum Umgang finden Sie hier. Des Weiteren warnen wir vor EHS, Exhibitors Housing Services. Einige unsere Aussteller wurden vor der letzten Veranstaltung direkt von EHS mit scheinbar günstigen Hotelangeboten angerufen bzw. angeschrieben. Allerdings verstecken sich nach Buchung zu hohe Servicegebühren, falsche Lageangaben und unkündbare Verträge dahinter. Wir möchten darauf hinweisen, dass wir nicht mit dieser Firma in Verbindung stehen und raten Ihnen dazu, in keinem Falle Ihre Kreditkartendetails anzugeben. Wenn Sie eine sichere Hotelbuchung vornehmen wollen, dann nutzen Sie bitte unser Hotelbuchungsformular.
