COMPANY PROFILE

Mönch Publishing Group (Mönch) is comprised of several successful defence publications (books and periodicals) and two service organization – the Industrial Promotion Service (IPS - Mönch’s international fairs and conferences entity) and the Industrial Symposium and Seminar Centre (ISSC). Mönch was founded within the Bundeswehr (1956) by Mr. Jupp Mönch. By order of the German Ministry of Defence – and its subordinate authorities of the Army, Air Force and Navy – the publishing company managed and produced its official publications. Today, Mönch publications include wholly and part-owned entities, for example in Turkey, Italy, the UK, and the USA. The main focus of these periodicals is defence technology. Mönch publications have longevity, economic independence, and are availability in eight different languages – each with specific regional or global coverage. All Mönch publications have their own independent professional editorial staff and unique focus, while serving as a platform that bring suppliers and procurers together peerlessly in a professional way. As a result, Mönch fully satisfies the demanding defence information requirements of decision makers in the armed forces, government, military armament and acquisition authorities, and the defence industry.

In 1977, NATO'S NATIONS AND PARTNER FOR PEACE (earlier known as NATO'S SIXTEEN NATIONS) became and remains part of the Mönch organisation. Approximately 250 titles have been marketed in the defence technology, policy, and history arena for many years by Bernard and Graefe – the book publishing division of Mönch.

Mönch is headquartered in Bonn from where its management team directs and maintains the Mönch publishing philosophy, corporate mission, and professional standards that are found across the spectrum of its publications and services. These include: technical reports, analyses, interviews, country and company profiles, and special issues from all parts of the world. Mönch leverages its worldwide network of full-time editors and correspondents as well as its carefully cultivated and extensive defence industry and organisational database to achieve global success in its offering. Moreover, Mönch sets a high standard for quality, success, and value that others can only hope to emulate.
