Women in Toys, Licensing & Entertainment’s (WIT) annual WIT Empowerment Day event will be held on Sept. 26, the day before Fall Toy Preview in Dallas officially begins. Held in collaboration with Walmart, WIT Empowerment Day is designed for entrepreneurs, manufacturers, inventors, and business owners who want to grow their businesses and careers.
WIT members will have the opportunity to pitch their products to Walmart buyers, and pitch products and concepts to top toy companies including Hasbro, Spin Master, Moose Toys, and Jazwares. Members will also be able to attend interactive Info Sessions with top industry experts which will delve into topics on crowdfunding, financing, patents and trademarks, packaging, manufacturing and distribution, marketing and PR, and more.
Empowerment Day Keynote and panel discussions are open to both WIT members and non-members, and include a Walmart Buyer Panel, Financial Alternatives Panel with Indiegogo, Toy Safety panel, and more. Speakers and additional panels will be announced soon.
