Anime NYC partners with X Tracks Licensing to host an executive summit on August 20, 2026, at the Javits Center. It will be the first closed forum dedicated to licensing for anime, manga, video games, and Asian pop culture, with access restricted to select industry guests. 🏢
The infrastructure behind license management ⚙️
The summit will address rights tracking systems, royalty management platforms, and market analysis tools for transmedia licensing. Use cases will be presented on API integration between Japanese studios and Western distributors, as well as data models to predict consumption trends in key territories. The event prioritizes operational efficiency over hype.
The summit where no one will ask about Latin Spanish dubbing 😏
Attendees will discuss strategic synergies while, outside, fans debate whether Goku beats Saitama. No one will mention Spanish dubbing, cosplayers, or whether physical manga will die this year. It will be a sober space for closing deals, where the biggest drama will be deciding which franchise deserves a limited edition Funko Pop.
