About the Organizers

Licensing Brands International was the first trade show organization to create an exclusive licensing event for Central & Eastern Europe. With the help and guidance of successful licensing organizations such as PLUS Licens, Kidz Entertainment, Chorion, ELC, Warner Bros., United Media, Walt Disney Consumer Products, 4Kids Entertainment, Jetix, Fox and so many more Licensing Brands was able to create an ongoing, successful licensing event for CEE territories.

Licensing Brands International (LBI) creates and organizes international licensing events, including Licensing In Latin America (now in its 7th year); Licensing In India (now in its 2nd year); and Licensing Forum—Central & Eastern Europe (now in its 6th year).

LBI is headed by Christine Annechino and Ernie Lustenring both long-time veterans of the licensing business. For over 50 years combined, Christine and Ernie have been involved in the business of licensing representing licensors and licensees, as well as working with retailers creating in-house programs. As international licensing experts, LBI is often called upon to help licensors, licensees and retailers find new contacts in new territories.

LBI continues to develop new events of emerging markets, expecting to announce a new licensing event in the coming year.
