Festival of Licensing is a four-week virtual gathering designed to bring the global licensing industry together to learn and network on an international stage. Held Oct. 6-29, the event’s tailor-made program is comprised of four week-long sections dedicated to key regions – Europe, Asia and the Americas – as well as the return of Licensing Leadership Summit.
