corporate presentation


Explanation:
Some companies periodically arrange gettogethers for industry analysts, institutions, financial reporters and shareholders where they present interim overviews of the company's progress and prospects, results achieved in scientific research etc. These usually are made available to the public and can be followed live on the internet.

corporate marketing operation or market launch


Explanation:
This would cover everything from product launch, launch of a new service, the launch of a new ad campaign, web site or corporate event, even introduction of new corporate design and logo, press conferences, PR operations, etc.

Unternehmensauftritt means actually Corporate Design...

business opportunity


Explanation:
Hiya - I don't do this often, but in the light of the additional context, I'd like to offer another (better?) suggestion.
You could rephrase it a little to say "the biggest business opportunity of the year!" (i.e. you don't want to miss this chance to showcase your business).

HTH.

neutral  Textklick: Auftritt v. Gelegenheit/Chance? Nö... Hört sich zwar gut an, die Frage ist aber Copywriting vs. Übersetzung? Added>>Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side ;-)

  -> s'what happens when you do both for a living ;-) But you're right, this is not a standard translation for the German, hence my mention of "rephrasing" ;-)
