Topics on the agenda include "The Trends, Tools, and Tactics To Win At Kids MediaInsights & Visibility into What Works and Why," "How to build a more effective media plan while navigating the children's media marketplace," and "How to talk to kids today, chat one-on-one with Dona as she presents a candid, foundational talk on Kid privacy rules and regulations in today's digital world."
