Excellence Awards were unveiled last night in a ceremony that brought together industry executives from around the world to celebrate the best of the global licensing industry.
The 25 award winners were selected from 165 finalists from around the world. More than 800 entries were received, narrowed down by an expert global judging panel and voted on by members of the licensing industry at large.
This year’s Excellence Awards were hosted by George Leon, chief executive officer, founder, Cakewalk Entertainment. The awards were presented by Alifish, InSpirit Designs, Jazwares and participants in Licensing International’s Accelerator Program, including Bedrock Collectibles, Holy Joe, LIBREX, Park Star Media and Somos Arte.
The awards honor innovation and creativity in the way brands use licensing to further their goals, how licensees develop and bring those products to market and how retailers creatively spotlight licenses on their shelves.
“It’s inspiring to see the quality of work produced by the licensing industry and it was incredible to be able to celebrate those successes together in person,” says Maura Regan, president, Licensing International. “The Licensing International Excellence Awards are a testament to the power of brands and to the power of licensing to launch products and programs with lasting appeal.”
