Over 40 Speakers Confirmed for this years Affiliate Marketing Conference

We could go on forever adding sessions to this years a4uexpo with the diversity of Affiliate Marketing becoming more apparent as weeks go by.

The fact that over 40 speakers have already been confirmed this year is a testament to this fact as it encroaches into more areas of marketing and embraces new trends including video, mobile and the recent resurgence of API’s - providing a new wave of opportunities for publishers.

We will be adding more speakers as they are confirmed this and next week.

Until then you see our 2008 speaker profiles for details of whose confirmed. We’ll be tying everyone up to sessions within the agenda next week if all goes well.

Bristol Roadshow - Thanks!

Firstly, the whole a4uexpo team would like to thank everyone who attended Bristol’s Roadshow for making it such an enjoyable evening.

We all had a chuckle at the photos from the afternoon / evening, thank you Clarke, Jason & Laura.  You can certainly see the progression of the evening….

The evening kicked off with an intense networking session starting at the Apple Boat & Que C’s; the decision was then made to visit Vodka Revolution…. say no more apart from thanks to all those buying the shots :-).  The evening ended with a visit to Matt’s favorite hang out – Reflex for some cheesy 80’s

The Bristol Roadshow also played host to the new affiliates4u.tv launch, with our very own presenter Chris Johnson, taking time out from networking to interview some key industry figures.  All interviews from the evening will be made available over the next week.

Affiliates4u.tv will be visiting all the a4uexpo roadshows, let us know if you would like to get involved.

Once again, great evening so thank you everyone!

Matthew & I look forward to seeing you all at the next Roadshow taking place in Glasgow on the 13th August from 7pm at the Zinc Bar.  Register today!!
