B There or B Square

There were silly, catchy sayings in the 50's like, "Be there or be square". Apparently, this was an appeal to be somewhere important or you were considered a "square"! Forwarding to 2011, the "there" is definitely, Chitag/TAGIE, November 17-20.

Mary Couzin, the grand creator of this top industry event, promises that this year will be bigger and better than ever. It has something for everyone who has any interest in the toy and game business.

Novice inventors will hear the essentials from in-house execs. Professional inventors will be exposed to the "new product wish lists" of active marketers. Product licensees will get to review new product opportunities from creative licensors. There will be a marque dinner to honor this year's industry "stars". And as a grand finale to something for everyone, consumers will meet face to face with the companies that supply playthings to the shelves of TRU, Target, Walmart, and specialty toy shops.

It is a REAL happening for all who have a stake in the vitality of the industry. So don't be "SQUARE", join me "THERE". See you later Alligators!
