Brand management and media company m4e has extended its partnership with publisher Panini Verlags until 2020 for its animated series, “Mia and me.”

As part of the agreement, Panini will continue to publish the monthly Mia and me magazine, as well as additional special magazine issues, stickers, sticker albums, trading cards and tattoos for German-speaking territories.

“We are very proud of this long-term and trusting cooperation with m4e, especially on such a wonderful property as ‘Mia and me,’” says Hermann Paul, managing director, Panini. “The magical fantasy world of Centopia is perfectly conveyed to the target group by our products. We were convinced of this property right from the start and are looking forward to many more successful years.”

“Mia and me” was created by Gerhard Hahn. The series is produced by Hahn & m4e Productions and co-produced by ZDF German Television Network. The third season of the television show is currently in production.
