From Hot Wheels to Barbie, Mattel is home to a wide roster of IP brands that supersede just one category, from footwear to clothes, beauty to homeware.

In this session, Mattel will reveal all to attending delegates.  

“We’re so delighted to have Jon as keynote speaker for this event," says Laura Freedman-Dagg, Head of Retail, Informa Markets - Global Licensing Group. “Our attendees are looking for inspiration for their future licensing programs and I’ve no doubt that he will provide just that.”

Last month,
