After carefully considering the impact of the Omicron variant on the industry’s ability to travel internationally and meet in person at this time, Kidscreen has decided to postpone Kidscreen Summit 2022. It was scheduled to take place as a live event in Miami from February 14 to February 17 but has now been rescheduled for July 18 to July 21.
Kidscreen Summit Virtual will still move forward as planned from March 7 to March 11, and attendees who are registered for the live event will also have access to this digital companion event.
Kidscreen SVP and publisher Jocelyn Christie said: “We recognize that it’s not the same experience as meeting in person, but our hope is that it still helps people make and maintain industry connections in Q1.â€
All existing live event registrations and sponsorships will be transferred to the rescheduled event in July. Kidscreen has posted a FAQ page at summit.kidscreen.com/2022/postponement to answer initial questions that attendees may have, and its customer care team is standing by at customersupport@kidscreensummit.com to provide more information.
Registration is open for both Kidscreen Summit Virtual and the rescheduled Kidscreen Summit live event, and more details can be found online at summit.kidscreen.com.
The most recent Kidscreen Summit live event held in February 2020 brought together more than 2,200 attendees in Miami for four days of business networking, learning and inspiration.
