Mojo Pitch

“This is something of a match made in heaven,” says DMI’s co-founder, and board game fan, Stuart Turner.

“Innovation is everything in the toy industry and it’s lovely being able to support inventors at the early stage to make sure great ideas don’t miss their mark,” said Fundamentally Children’s Amanda Gummer.

“Not only will it be a great opportunity to meet some fresh new inventors and to learn and share ideas, but it’s the perfect place for us to network with friends and colleagues from the toy and inventing community,” said Flair’s Andrew McKay.

We caught up with Plum’s commercial director, Paul Schaffer, to find out more about the company’s approach to design.

“I’m looking forward to tapping in to the creativity and innovation feed that Mojo Nation has created at the Mojo Pitch,” said WowWee’s CTO, Davin Surfer.

Attendees of the Festival will get a complimentary copy of the firm’s latest Trend Alert report and two-days free access to Kids Insights’ award-winning online portal.

“Although we are a tiny player in the toy arena, we feel it is our duty to support an event which encourages creativity and innovation,” said Entertoyment director Josep Pastor.

“Spin Master is excited to be partnering with Mojo Nation this year and looking forward to meeting with the UK’s most talented top designers and toy inventors at the 2018 Pitch event,” said David Winter, inventor relations at Spin Master.

“Inventors are the lifeblood of our industry and I think that the Mojo Pitch event is a fantastic opportunity for all involved,” said Daniel King, general manager UK at Cartamundi.

“What Mojo Nation is doing throughout the year is fantastic and we expect this to be the crowning event of the year,” said Seven Towns’ Steve Perrin.
