Delegations represented by Quebec-based government agency SODEC, the UK Department for Business and Trade (UK@Kidscreen) and Ireland's Cultural & Creative Industries Skillnet are coming in strength to the event.

And that's just for starters! We're also deep in discussions with other groups from South Korea, Japan, Canada, France, Spain, Italy, India, Malaysia and Brazil to deliver on our promise of bringing the global kids entertainment industry together for the most essential market and conference of the year.
