We are unable to provide press accreditation to the following groups of people: Persons without a journalistic background (e.g. account managers, sales managers, advertising managers, PR consultants, social media managers and private accompanying persons), persons who present a written assignment from a freelance journalist and persons who are only active privately on social networks.
