Since we launched TV Kids in what now feels like a lifetime ago, our portfolio of services targeted to this vibrant segment of the content business has expanded every year. In addition to upping the frequency of our flagship print magazine, we launched the TV Kids Guide and TV Niños for our Spanish-language readers. Online, we expanded even further with TV Kids Weekly, TV Kids Daily, the TV Kids Preview ahead of markets throughout the year, breaking news alerts, TV Niños Semanal, the standalone TVKids.ws website and, most recently, our super-popular TV Kids In-Demand reports for showcasing great new properties available on the market today. With our inaugural TV Kids Festival, we’ve created a brand-new way to engage with our readers across the globe. And after working on it for months, we are so thrilled to see it come to fruition. Thirty fantastic speakers from across distribution, pro- duction, broadcast and streaming generously shared their insights with us, and we cannot wait to share them with you from February 2 to 5. Whether you tune in live or wait to catch up on-demand, we hope you enjoy this lineup as much we did pulling it together. In a year without being able to see you in per- son, this is one of many ways we’re trying to stay engaged with a segment of the content business we absolutely adore. To those creating, making and selling these wonderful shows that are educating and entertaining the future leaders of the world, we say thank you. Enjoy the show!
