Licensing Connect is a fresh new half-day event created to bring the ANZ licensing community together and strengthen the connection between retailers and the opportunities licensing presents.

Designed for retailers, licensors, licensees, agents, marketers and industry partners, the event will explore the trends shaping the market, the ideas driving growth, and the opportunities emerging across categories, brands and consumer behaviour. It will be a practical, energising and future-focused morning, combining global insights, local relevance, best practice case studies and meaningful networking.

The agenda has been designed to help attendees better understand where licensing is heading, what retailers need now, how great partners can help brands move faster, and where the next opportunities are emerging. It is also a chance to reconnect with the industry, share ideas, and have some fun along the way.

Whether you are looking to stay ahead of trends, build stronger retail relationships, discover new ways to win in market, or simply connect with others across the ecosystem, Licensing Connect will leave you better informed, better connected and inspired by what is possible.
