A decade of bringing together the children’s content creators’ community in India

10 Editions | 210 Speakers |

14 Countries | 21 Industries |

33 Masterclasses

and the journey continues …

Organised by the German Book Office New Delhi, which is the South Asia node of the Frankfurt Book Fair, JUMPSTART was founded with the objective of building an exchange platform for the creative community and facilitate capacity development in the children’s content space. Since its inception JUMPSTART has completed 9 Editions with over 181 Speakers from 13 countries and over 20 industries and has conducted 29 Masterclasses on various topics, establishing itself as the platform for creative ideation and networking. This November, we invite you to celebrate a decade of ideation, innovation and collaboration in the Indian and international content creation space.

We live in an era where the world is a village and boundaries have no meaning. For us, creators of content, this means an explosion of opportunities. Audiences come from any part of the world. New content delivery mediums fuel new forms of content; changing social values prod us towards new themes for our stories. Numbers and data map our choices, yet the future remains uncharted. Where are we going? This is what we plan to discover at JUMPSTART 2018, India’s only congress for children’s content creators.

Celebrating our 10th anniversary it is only fitting for JUMPSTART to lay bare the new frontiers of content as we bring together publishers, authors, digital evangelists, edupreneurs, parents, teachers, librarians and exponents of kids media to peep into the minds of this digital generation.
