At the Spielwarenmesse itself, the Toy Business Forum is an important port of call for industry knowledge. In Hall 3A, experts highlight trends and explain how the trade can adapt to the challenges of the market. Attendance at the lectures is free of charge and no registration is required. Topics at the forthcoming Spielwarenmesse focus on digitalisation, retail trends and developments in the toy market, as well as sustainability and marketing. “The toy industry will at last be meeting up in person again in Nuremberg, at the beginning of February,” explains Christian Ulrich, Spokesperson for the Executive Board at Spielwarenmesse eG. “At times like these, it is more important than ever for those involved in the market to seek out innovative information through specialist presentations.”
