Kidscreen Summit will make its return to Miami in 2018, after experiencing a 12% year-over-year increase in registrations that brought nearly 2,000 delegates to last week’s event.

Kidscreen Summit 2018 will take place at the InterContinental Miami from February 12 to 15. Registration for the event opens in early July.

The 2017 edition of Kidscreen Summit saw a significant boost in attendance from Asia-Pacific, South America and Europe. Asia-Pacific had a 41% increase in delegates, particularly from China, which had twice as many attendees this year compared to the 2016 edition. Significant increases in delegates from South America (up 24%) and Europe (up 13%) also helped shape this year’s summit and its underlying messages surrounding diversity.

The four-day event was kicked off by Dr. Richard Weissbourd (pictured), who presented a data-filled keynote on instilling kindness that was met with a standing ovation from the packed room.
