WELCOME Well, we’ve finally made it. Welcome back to the Hilton Park Lane and the Brand & Lifestyle Licensing Awards 2021.

After last year’s virtual ceremony, it feels so good to welcome you back in person to celebrate the achievements of the past 12 months within the brand and lifestyle licensing space.

Left to right: Samantha Loveday, Rob Willis, Jakki Brown and Ian Hyder.

A

nd never has that innovation been more worthy of celebrating than now. While protected from the ebb and flow of TV schedules and the ripping up of movie release plans which has proved a challenge for those working in the character and entertainment category, the brand and lifestyle sector has had to endure its own particular challenges brought about by the pandemic.

For museums, galleries and heritage institutions it meant closing physical spaces and then, once they were able to re-open, operating with strict social distancing measures, limiting the numbers of people they could safely welcome back. They rallied by offering innovative virtual experiences so that consumers

could view their amazing collections online and kept interest in consumer products high with collaborations and partnerships across categories as varied as high-end fashion, bespoke art print collections, fabrics and vegan food wraps.

Well-known lifestyle names found homes with new, fast growing ecommerce retailers, enabling them to explore the world of fast fashion, while food and drink brands made further in-roads into categories including health and beauty.

Indeed, the past 12 months has seen innovation, tenacity, forward thinking, originality and resolve shine through within the brand and lifestyle community.

This is ably demonstrated by our stellar line-up of finalists and the B&LLAs team is

so proud to be able to bring you all together today.

A big thank you, too, to our category sponsors, plus our headline sponsor Brand Licensing Europe 2021 and trade association, Licensing International for the steadfast support shown to us as we’ve worked to bring this event to life. We couldn’t have done it without you.

Our finalists have been waiting patiently since May for their time in the sun. We’re ready to raise a glass to you all.
