The BLE Animation Pavilion will offer exhibiting options for smaller studios as well as startups in an effort to provide an even playing field for all in attendance at the event to contribute, collaborate and break into the industry. BLE will take place from October 1 to 3 at ExCeL London.<\/p>\n<p>BLE Event Director Anna Knight said: \u201cThe animation industry in Britain and Europe is so exciting right now\u2014a real cluster of creativity and vibrancy with studios of all sizes producing inspired, innovative and commercially viable content. Just look at Animaccord and <em>Masha and the Bear<\/em>, Magic Light Pictures and <em>The Gruffalo<\/em>, Acamar and <em>Bing<\/em>, Moomin with the new <em>Moominvalley<\/em> and, of course, the granddaddy of them all, Aardman with <em>Shaun the Sheep<\/em> and <em>Wallace and Gromit<\/em> among many others. We want to celebrate these studios, their stories and successes at BLE and give them a platform from which to shout and do business, and we really hope they will jump on the bandwagon and take advantage of all of the opportunities open to them to show retailers and licensees exactly what they have to offer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Knight added: \u201cWe are also close to confirming a really special animation-focused keynote presentation, which we are hoping to announce shortly after Licensing Expo, so watch this space, you will not want to miss it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brand Licensing Europe (BLE) is set to highlight the British and European animation industries at this year\u2019s event in October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":16598,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[1882],"class_list":["post-16597","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-brand-licensing-europe","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BLE 2019 to Spotlight British &amp;
