The second edition of Junior@MIPTV, a one-day focus offering a new window on the future of kids' entertainment, will take place on Tuesday (14 April).
MIPTV's first Kids Public Broadcasters Breakfast, will kick off the Junior@MIPTV programme. Some of the world's most influential executives in children's programming will discuss with their peers the biggest challenges for public service broadcasters.
"Children are on the frontline in the mutation affecting traditional TV, and their viewing habits presage the TV landscape of tomorrow, as they travel back and forth across multiple digital experiences, expecting new and original content everywhere they go. Junior@MIPTV will outline what the expectations of today's kids are, and explore how both linear broadcasters and online platforms can grab young viewers' attention," said Laurine Garaude, Director of Reed MIDEM's Television Division.
Back for the second edition, The Future of Kids' TV Summit is welcoming 100 decision-makers from the sector, offering a unique opportunity to be inspired by a carefully curated group of visionary speakers.

The Kids' Channels Talk and Playing the Digital Transformation are two of the conferences scheduled, which will bring together broadcasters, producers and digital players, who will unveil their editorial strategies and coproduction initiatives, and share their perspectives on the future of production, commissioning, funding and extension of kids' programming.
As part of the MIP Digital Fronts programme, Awesomeness TV Founder Brian Robbins & Star Vlogger Meg DeAngelis will be on the stage on Wednesday (15 April) for the first MIP Digital Screening dedicated to Kids' programming, showcasing some of the best in children's original online video.
