WELCOME

Greeting to our Industry Partners and Friends ,
We were all looking forward to the flagship event at the beginning of February . The strong increase in the Omicron variant and the associated increasing concern of exhibitors and visitors about the health of their teams led to the cancellation of Spielwarenmesse 2022 in Nuremberg . However , the organizers created a new multifunctional platform for the industry at the original fair date . Thanks to Spielwarenmesse Digital , the industry had the opportunity to network and discover the latest trends .
The organizers conducted a brief survey on the success of Spielwarenmesse Digital , which we have covered in our magazine .
This edition of the magazine brings to you success stories of Indian entrepreneurs , the stars who thought out of the box and made success of their Ideas .
