“Having the opportunity to talk with and hear from the kids’ TV industry regularly is important to all of us, but it’s also often hard to get to all events. It was very valuable for us to participate in last year’s TV Kids Festival. It gave us the chance to share our strategy and needs as well as to hear directly from others. The fact it was virtual gave us even more flexibility and meant it was easier to fit into our busy schedules.”

—Patricia Hidalgo, Director, BBC Children’s & Education “Participating in the TV Kids Festival is always an easy yes for me. World Screen does a fantastic job of bringing our industry together to celebrate and share all the incredible creative being done to entertain global audiences.”

The lineup of professionals is impressive. The access is very comfortable and only requires an investment of time.”

—Kerstin Viehbach, Commissioning Lead, Kids Fiction, SUPER RTL “Taking part in the TV Kids Festival was a rewarding and informative experience. It offers invaluable industry insights, gives space to important dialogue around industry challenges and the opportunity to come away feeling inspired by the forward-thinking perspectives of people equally as passionate about creating the very best in kids’ TV content.”

—Cecilia Persson, Managing Director, BBC Studios Kids & Family “Great event! I love that you did a focus on particular countries and their acquisition strategies as well as their trends. I especially like that the videos were available afterward since it’s hard to watch everything live.

I liked receiving the schedule of the talks of the day.”

—Magali Boccaccio, Pre-Buys, Acquisitions & Co-Productions, TFO “The TV Kids Festival is simply becoming a must-attend for the kids’ media industry. The richness and depth of the sessions make it a critical element of market intelligence and knowledge advancement in kids' media.
