At The Toy Association’s Fall Toy Preview in Dallas this October, toy designers will have the opportunity to pitch concepts to Target.

Target’s Open Innovation Project, a programme which kicked off at US Toy Fair earlier this year, creates a path for toy inventors and designers to present their new product concepts, even those in the early stage of development, via face-to-face meetings.
