... welcomes new exhibitors and opens a fantastic showroom!

Exhibitors and visitors were very satisfied by the 2011 edition and the next Forum should meet up to those high standards. The event will take place on April 11th and 12th 2012 in Halle Freyssinet, in the heart of Paris.

Kazachok’s Licensing Forum has become the 1st major date on the licensing events calendar – ideally scheduled after the Book Fair in Bologna, and the MIP TV and before Las Vegas – to allow professionals keep in touch with the latest trends and organize their licensing strategies. Each year it gathers the major licensing actors. During two days agents, rights owners, licensees, manufacturers, distributors and agencies can meet, share and sign or renew deals. Thanks to a conference program hosted by expert speakers and private pitching sessions during which exhibitors unveil their strategies, the Licensing Forum is the place to get a feel for future tendencies and keep informed about the latest market evolutions.
