The CMC Exchange @LBF is back in London this week on Thursday, March 14, 2019. A jampacked day of market meetings wherein broadcasters, publishers, producers, licensing companies and more meet to pitch new IPs and make meaningful connections. Throughout the day the CMC will run curated speaker sessions for audiences, centred around this year's topic: 'Knowing your consumer: On all platforms, at all ages, now and in the future.” Find the complete timetable here.

In attendance from 9 Story Media Group is Dublin-based Development Executive, Sarah Lonsdale, who chatted with us about what she has planned for the day.

Sarah: “I’ll be meeting with writers, IP developers, producers, and publishers. One of the biggest joys in our development team is getting to work with authors and illustrators on great book properties and bringing them to life in animation. Hopefully, I’ll find a wonderful book to option that we can develop into a series, but mostly it’s about meeting people and building relationships.”

For those unable to attend, here’s a little glimpse into what takes place at the CMC Exchange!
