As the largest tradeshow dedicated to brand licensing, Licensing Expo has long connected the world's most influential brand owners and agents with manufacturers and retailers for the latest brand extensions and collaborations.

What a show! Thank you to the brands, IPs, retailers, manufacturers, licensors, and licensees who were a part of the biggest Licensing Expo yet, with 410 exhibitors (130 brand new!) and 12,500+ attendees we couldn't have done it without you! 👏

The energy was absolutely electric, from Sharon and Jack Osbourne to Ashley Graham and Netflix's CMO taking the stage! With 28% international attendance from 78 countries, truly proving Licensing Expo is THE global marketplace for licensing. It was an incredible 3 days of bringing the $389.8 billion licensing industry together! 🙌

Take a look back at the excitement and we'll see you next year, May 25-27, 2027!
