First Call: Licensing Show Submissions

Mar 10, 2010

Licensing Show is started to crest on the horizon — it will take place from June 8-10 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Vegas. That means a few things: meetings, sunshine, old friends, and… The Licensing Book’s biggest issue of the year.

So we’re going to start calling for submissions now, even if we have a whole ‘nuther issue between now and then. Please send new deal/product announcements with hi-res (300 dpi) images to bjoiner@gmail.com by May 3rd. Embargoed material may be sent; our issue will be released at the show, and no information therein will be released beforehand in print or online.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
