Jumbo to meet inventors at Mojo Pitch 2024

Inventors will be able to pitch concepts to Jumbo at this year’s Mojo Pitch.

Forming part of this year’s Play Creators Festival, the live Mojo Pitch event will take place on Thursday, June 27th at London’s Stamford Bridge Stadium.

Jumbo will also be involved in the Virtual Mojo Pitch event, taking place digitally across July 9th, 10th and 11th.

Both the live and virtual Mojo Pitch events will welcome inventors, invention studios and design agencies as they pitch new toy and game concepts to a range of companies, each on the lookout for new products.

“We are excited to join the Mojo Pitch again; it’s always a great event to connect with the international inventor community,” said Floor Doggenaar, Director of NPD, Innovation and Sustainability at the Jumbo Group.

“The Jumbo Group – an integration of six companies – is becoming stronger and we cover more and more product categories: from puzzles, games, educational, arts and crafts and also toys… Some of our brands have a long history in Europe, such as Stratego, Party and Co, Milles Bornes, Electro and Water Magic, but we are always looking to find new heroes – like the game Hitster.

“We look very much forward to the pitches and seeing great new concepts that hopefully can result in some winning products.”
