CLOSING KEYNOTE - In Conversation with BBC Children’s chief Patricia Hidalgo

Just two years into her leadership of BBC Children’s & Education, Patricia Hidalgo has already navigated a sea of major challenges, not the least of which was a global pandemic. Overseeing one of the world’s largest and most influential broadcasters of premium kids content, Hidalgo has helped steer her department through the complexities of audience migration, a transfer of the production unit into BBC Studios and an overall shift in the Beeb’s traditional, channel-oriented commissioning strategy. With 2023 still shiny and new, Hidalgo sits down with Kidscreen’s Jeremy Dickson to discuss what the future will look like, where she sees opportunities emerging, and what trends will shape the pubcaster’s programming endeavors. Don’t miss this chance to hear first-hand where BBC Children’s & Education is headed next.
