In February, Licensing International’s Inclusion, Diversity, Equity and Accessibility (IDEA) Committee, chaired by Jamie Stevens, EVP Sony, commissioned by the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media (GDI) to conduct a study assessing the current state of diversity in the licensing community and establish benchmarks from which to measure future progress.
Please join us as we present the findings from this landmark study of our industry and discuss the path forward with a panel of experts and corporate leaders.
