Virtually Go to the 2024 Licensing Exp with Kris and Dean


Virtually Attend the 2024 Licensing Expo With Kris and Dean

In 2024, the Licensing Expo is being held May 21-23 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center here in Vegas.

This is a virtual way to go along with me and Kris. Low Tech, but virtual.

We will post a few videos here about our process of signing up, getting ready, making appointments, and so on. We will be talking about our thinking about this year's expo, the planning for next year's expo and maybe having a booth, and so on.

And also we will talk a bunch a bout why this is worth attending for every indie publisher.

We will walk you through all the process of getting there and your badges and so on on the day before.

Then each day of the conference we will take a ton of photos and videos to load up here about what we saw, nifty ideas for licenses, people we talked to, and so much more. Those three days of the actual convention will be jammed packed here. Most will go up after we get home every evening.

And then for a few days afterwards we will talk about the value, the connections we made, what we learned, and a ton more.

So you can attend the 2023 Licensing Expo with me and Kris

If you have been thinking and hearing about the Licensing Expo, this is the way to get a real sense and flavor of it. And learn a ton in the process.

Join us.
