In this week’s episode of the “Power Kid Podcast,” host Phil Albritton of Power Kid Design welcomes CreateOn‘s Steve Rosen and Aaron Singer to the show.
CreateOn’s partnership with Magna-Tiles is rapidly expanding to include licensed building sets from iconic brands, including Sesame Street, Dr. Seuss, The World of Eric Carle, Build-a-Bear Workshop, and The Beatles. On the show, Albritton digs into the backstory of CreateOn and how Rosen and Singer met and entered the toy industry.
The trio also discusses CreateOn’s production operation in Illinois and the vision to build manufacturing infrastructure in the U.S. Additionally, Rosen shares how his background in developing licensed slot machines is similar to working with toys, while he and Singer explain how they leveraged their business to support first responders during the COVID-19 pandemic.
