📌GET TO KNOW...the Women Innovators of Play programming team! ➡REGISTER HERE!: https://lnkd.in/g6zTG8MNIntroducing just a few of the talented women behind Hasbro’s Women Innovators of Play event, coming up on October 10. Meet Emily Mechem (VP, Legal at Hasbro) - the resident Legal Innovator on the Women Innovators team!👩⚖️ YOUR ROLE? “I lead the Toy Legal Team including brand rights management and product technology & innovation.” BEST PART ABOUT WOMEN INNOVATORS OF PLAY? “In reflecting on this experience, I’m reminded of a line from an Emily Dickinson poem, “Not knowing when the Dawn will come, I open every Door.” Hasbro has always believed that great toys and games can come from anywhere and has recognized that not everyone has access to the tools necessary to seize that opportunity. One goal of the WIOP Program is to play a part in preparing innovators to take advantage of those opportunities. Working with the best team in the business and playing a small part in opening doors and inspiring innovators is a truly wonderful aspect of my job.” FAVORITE TOY OR GAME OF ALL TIME? “Nerf Hoop. It is a simple classic that my dad and I enjoyed and now I enjoy with my sons. It just barely edges out Ms. Pacman.”

📌GET TO KNOW...the Women Innovators of Play programming team! Introducing just a few of the talented women behind Hasbro’s Women Innovators of Play event, coming up on October 10. ➡REGISTER HERE!: https://lnkd.in/g6zTG8MNFirst up: meet Kelly Carlson (Senior Project Engineer for Hasbro Games and Avalon Hill) – and our Project Manager who kept the entire Women Innovators programming team organized and on-task! 🗓 BEST PART ABOUT PLANNING WOMEN INNOVATORS OF PLAY? “It's been inspiring to work with a team of incredible women that work in all different departments at Hasbro! I would have never gotten the opportunity to meet some of these incredible individuals without working on this program.” FAVORITE PRODUCT INVENTED BY A WOMAN? “When I was in middle school, I learned that windshield wipers were invented by a woman, Mary Anderson! I thought it was so cool that something used so frequently was made by a woman, and it was the first time I ever thought of an inventor as a woman!” WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING RIGHT NOW? “I may be biased because I worked on the item, but I can't stop playing Life in Reterra! It was so much fun to design a comfy-cozy post-apocalypse game that's actually made out sustainable and recycled materials. Plus, it has hundreds of unique ways to play, so it's a new and fun game to play every time!” #WomenInnovatorsOfPlay #ProductDesign #Gaming #Toys #ThoughtLeadership #Events
