Hasbro has given a press release regarding Hasbro Properties Group (HPG, the intellectual property development arm of Hasbro, Inc.) and how they plan on elevating the proporties on a global scale amoungst other marketing leaders. The following has been taken from Hasbro's recent press release

PAWTUCKET, R.I.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 20, 2006--Hasbro Properties Group (HPG), the intellectual property development arm of Hasbro, Inc. (NYSE: HAS), will arrive at Licensing 2006 International with new, ground-breaking licensing programs that raise the industry bar in key consumer products and lifestyle categories such as entertainment, direct-to-retail, digital gaming, and publishing. HPG will showcase its portfolio of coveted brands including PLAYSKOOL, MY LITTLE PONY, TRANSFORMERS, LITTLEST PET SHOP, ACTION MAN A.T.O.M. ALPHA TEENS ON MACHINES, TONKA and MONOPOLY at the annual show on June 20-22, 2006 at the Javits Convention Center in New York City.

"We have an incredibly strong and diverse lineup of licensed programs coming to market in 2006 and beyond," said Jane Ritson-Parsons, president of the Hasbro Properties Group. "Our goal has been to identify and dominate key licensing channels that will further engrain our properties into the lifestyles of consumers of all ages around the world and we have certainly accomplished that by forging relationships with market leaders such as CVS Corporation, HarperCollins, Scholastic, American Greetings, Paramount Pictures, McDonald's, RealNetworks and Activision. Consumers can look forward to interacting with their favorite toy and game experiences in many exciting new ways this year."
