“We want to make sure that the industry gets the chance to be recognized for its efforts and achievements across product, property, retail, marketing and more,” says Ian Hyder, joint managing director, Max Publishing, which owns and organizes The Licensing Awards. “To do this, we felt it was fair to extend the deadline by another week from Aug. 7 to Aug. 14, giving the chance for those coming back to work from furlough across retail, licensees and licensors the best chance to enter.
