P Jayakumar
CEO Toonz Media Group
As we step into 2025, it is with immense pride and gratitude that we look back on a year filled with creativity, innovation, and remarkable achievements. 2024 was a transformative year for Toonz Media Group, as we expanded our global footprint, launched successful projects, and strengthened our reputation as a leader in kids and family entertainment.
One of the highlights of the past year was the success of our animated series, Jay Jagannath. This vibrant and culturally rich IP has resonated deeply with audiences, proving that stories rooted in heritage can have universal appeal. Projects like these not only showcase our creative prowess but also reaffirm our commitment to bringing meaningful and engaging content to the world.
In addition to our creative successes, 2024 saw significant strides in global collaboration. From co-productions with leading studios to strategic partnerships, we have leveraged our global presence to maximize creative and financial benefits for our partners. Our ability to tap into subsidies and tax credits across regions has been instrumental in delivering world-class content efficiently and effectively.
Looking ahead, 2025 promises to be a year of even greater opportunities. The AVGC (Animation, VFX, Gaming, Comics) industry is poised for rapid growth, and Toonz Media Group is ready to lead the charge. With new technologies, evolving audience preferences, and expanding markets, we are entering a dynamic phase where innovation will be key. Our new Gaming and Emerging Technology division is set to play a pivotal role in this journey, blending storytelling with cutting-edge technology to create immersive experiences for global audiences.
This year, we will also place a strong emphasis on collaboration. By building stronger partnerships and fostering co-productions, we aim to create content that transcends borders and connects with audiences worldwide. We remain committed to nurturing relationships with our existing partners while welcoming new collaborations that align with our vision.
Sustainability will be another cornerstone of our strategy in 2025. As storytellers, we hold the power to influence and inspire. By integrating environmentally conscious practices in our production processes and telling stories that promote sustainability, we hope to contribute to a better future for the next generation.
Finally, I want to take this opportunity to thank our incredible team, our partners, and our clients. Your creativity, dedication, and support drive Toonz Media Group forward. Together, we have built a legacy of 25 years, and together, we will shape the future of entertainment.
Here’s to a year of innovation, collaboration, and storytelling that inspires. Let’s make 2025 a year to remember!
