The Great Kids Summit 2016. Trends and Currents in Children’s Television

A seminar co-hosted by SUPER RTL and HMR International GmbH & Co. KG

Children’s programming has always been a standout genre marked by intense competition around the world. New digital distribution channels and hard-fought contests over them have now come to define this marketplace. Which kind of content suits this segment, and how must it be shaped to get through to today’s young audience?

The Great Kids Summit will showcase successful formats, examine strategies, trends, and critical factors to succeed in an international context, and will explore opportunities for producing companies and broadcasters to make the most of current developments.
