FAZ denies fake partnership with Frankfurt Finance & Future Summit
The Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) has strongly denied any involvement with the Frankfurt Finance & Future Summit after the Weimer Media Group falsely listed it as a media partner. The group, owned by Wolfram Weimer and his wife Christiane Götz-Weimer, continues to display the FAZ logo on its summit website despite no official agreement existing.
The Weimer Media Group fabricated a media partnership with the FAZ for the October 2025 summit. A spokesperson for the newspaper, Petra Hoffmann, confirmed that neither in 2024 nor 2025 had the FAZ agreed to any collaboration. She also denied economic ties between the publication and the Weimer family, who operate the media group.
The FAZ maintains it has no connection to the summit or the Weimer Media Group. The false partnership claim and unauthorised logo use remain unresolved, while the group’s past deceptions raise further questions. Legal steps may follow if the logo is not removed from the summit’s promotional materials.
