Brand Licensing Europe, which takes place Sept. 24-26 at ExCeL, London, is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and the festivities are due to be woven into themes, activations and parties throughout the week of the event. We want to celebrate the people, the companies and the partners who have helped to create Europe’s most important licensing show.

So, we need your help! When did you first attend Brand Licensing Europe? How many BLEs do you think you have been to, as a visitor or exhibitor? What are your first memories of the show? Are there any stand-out licensing deals or collaborations that you or your company has been involved in that started with a conversation at BLE? Do you have any images from shows over the years?

We’d love to hear from you. Your comments will help shape the celebrations at the show, as well as a 25th anniversary supplement in License Global’s September issue, which will be distributed at the event.

Please email Anna Clarke with as much information as you can share.

Registration for Brand Licensing Europe 2024 is open, secure your free place now to join the celebrations.
