The agreement extends <strong>from September 2018 to December 2021.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The partnership will be formally announced during the forthcoming <strong>Licensing Market 2018 \u2013 the LIMA event for the German licensing market \u2013 on 6 November at Hotel Bayerischer Hof in Munich.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the continuing success of the first two series and plans already advanced for series three,&nbsp;a licensing campaign for Sissi the Young Empress is already strongly established in a number of territories, notably Italy, where it has brought to retail toys, books, magazines, puzzles and board games, confectionery, personal care products, carnival costumes and a Dress Up Your Sissi game app. Active Merchandising is expected to pursue opportunities in these and many other categories.<\/p>\n<p>Guided by its founder and owner Anita Van Esch, a licensing expert who has worked with such major names as MTV, Nickelodeon, SuperRTL and Mattel, Dusseldorf-based Active Merchandising has established itself in Germany as a dynamic and successful licensing partner. Active\u2019s success is down to its focus on developing licensing strategies, retail strategies, marketing plans and a powerful network of licensees and partners, as well as building a strong merchandising business for entertainment brands.<\/p>\n<p>Mondo TV\u2019s agreement with Active follows hard on the heels of a three-country deal with Nickelodeon that brings a German-language version of Sissi series one to Germany, Austria and Switzerland for a five-year period, which started in September this year. Nickelodeon will have exclusive free-to-air and pay-TV rights in Germany, and non-exclusive free-to-air and pay-TV rights in Austria and Switzerland. Sissi series one has also be showing on channels owned by the free-to-air Austrian national&nbsp;public service&nbsp;broadcaster ORF since 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Already a big hit with its a core audience of young girls, Sissi the Young Empress is now an established ratings success in over 40 countries, with two series (a total of 52 x 26\u2019) already available and <strong>a new, 3D season (52 x 11\u2019) to be launched in 2019<\/strong> with a new format and new contents.<\/p>\n<p>Sissi is based on a real historical figure \u2013 a charming young empress who over the years captured the public imagination well beyond her Austrian homeland. This animated version of her story offers its audience lots of adventure, romance, mystery, intrigue and even magic when Sissi discovers a magic bracelet, which leads to exciting and unusual adventures as she seeks to help her many animal friends.<\/p>\n<p>The adventures of the free-spirited princess who resists etiquette and the duties of the court to follow her heart is a big success with its target audience of young girls, who love Sissi\u2019s strong and positive character and identify with her desire to follow her dreams.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Matteo Corradi, Mondo TV CEO<\/strong>, says: <em>\u201cActive Merchandising is a major name in licensing in German-speaking markets and an ideal partner for this very popular children\u2019s show as it gains new fans across Germany,&nbsp;Austria and&nbsp;Switzerland. We are looking forward enormously to working with Active Merchandising on the construction of a comprehensive licensing plan for these important markets, as we have already done very successfully in Italy.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Says <strong>Anita van Esch:<\/strong> <em>\u201cSissi is a well-known brand in the German-speaking territories, with Austria being its \u201chome country\u201d.
