Beyond Kids. From Story to Franchise.

Where the next generation's entertainment begins 

As the lines between content, creators, gaming, platforms, licensing and business continue to blur, entertainment for new generations from Gen Z to Gen Alpha is being shaped by new audience behaviours, evolving business models and IP that moves seamlessly across formats, platforms and communities. MIPJUNIOR is where the industry's most important conversations take place, partnerships are built, and the next generation of entertainment brands begins its journey to global scale.

Spanning preschool, kids, tweens, teens and young adult audiences, MIPJUNIOR is where stories scale into global franchises. Bringing together development, financing, monetisation and distribution in one marketplace, it connects creators, studios and IP owners with buyers, investors and partners to drive international growth and unlock opportunities to reach young audiences wherever they engage. From early-stage concepts to market-ready titles, MIPJUNIOR is where ideas originate, partnerships form, and IP is built to travel across platforms, audiences and territories. 

If MIPCOM is where deals close, MIPJUNIOR is where they begin.

From Audiences to Communities.
From Stories to Scalable Franchises.
