Supporting the OC Kids Expo through brand visibility, curated activations, educational zones, or experiential engagement with families and children.
Kids Business Accelerator participation, supporting young entrepreneurs as they present projects and develop practical business, leadership, and problem-solving skills.
Educational courses, including collaboration on the development, localization, and delivery of programs such as Business by Kids, AI by Kids, Events by Kids, and Kid-Friendly World.
Book series and content partnerships, including dissemination, co-branded editions, and companion materials for titles such as Kid-Friendly World, Business by Kids, Events by Kids, and 100 Kids Events.
Community and city initiatives that integrate creativity, learning, child development, and inclusion into everyday spaces, programs, and family experiences.

In addition to partnering in Kid-Friendly World projects, events, and activities, we invite businesses to explore and accelerate the development of new products, services, and solutions for children. We support these efforts through research, testing, pilot programs, and activation with families, customers, and investors.
