‘Pitch & Fix’ to make Affiliate Bootcamp debut in 2019

AffiliateINSIDER will launch Pitch & Fix speed networking sessions and a Business Coaching Workshop at next year’s Affiliate Bootcamp, held at Roman Abramovich’s extravagant personal nightclub, Under the Bridge, from 21-22 March.

The second instalment of the popular affiliate conference, held over two days for the first time, has been designed to help affiliates in the sports betting industry growth hack and gain expert digital knowledge around driving traffic growth to their sites.

The event, which has previously attracted sponsorship from key industry brands such as Paysafe’s Income Access, Buffalo Partners, Intertops, MyBet and BetonAces, has this year seen its headline sponsorship slot taken up by leading sports betting brand Vbet Affiliates.

Arsen Aharonyan, VP Operations at Vbet, said: “We’re delighted to be partnering with AffiliateINSIDER to promote affiliate business growth. Affiliate marketing is vitally important for our business and this conference puts us in touch with over 100 active affiliates in a number of regions that we can do business with and that’s a perfect opportunity to expand our brand reach.”

“This year we are going bigger and bolder, with more than 150 delegates expected for a spectacular two-day bootcamp, specifically designed to support affiliate marketing and skills development,” explained AffiliateINSIDER founder and CEO Lee-Ann Johnstone.

“As digital is constantly disrupting, we are striving to keep affiliates updated with new trends, and allow operators to get better connected to new and mid tier affiliates who are serious about doing good business but maybe aren’t directly account managed in a programme yet.

“Content is a key focus for our bootcamps, as is facilitating commercial negotiations for better business, which is why we’ve collated some of the brightest digital minds to share expert insights and cutting edge digital trends for delegates to implement in their businesses.”

Within the conference agenda, AffiliateINSIDER has introduced ‘Pitch & Fix’ speed networking sessions to help delegates make new connections, secure commercial deals and find skills they need to grow their business through approved and vetted agency suppliers.

Meanwhile, the second day will feature an ‘Elevate + Thrive entrepreneurial affiliate business coaching session’ – hosted by a leading UK entrepreneur and business coach, which will encourage delegates to focus on the competition and get in the right business mindset to drive revenue growth.

“The objective of this session is to help delegates adjust their mind set for entrepreneurial success,” added Johnstone. “Running an affiliate business is hard work; adjusting your mindset when challenges are faced is key to driving commercial growth in your business.

“This is unique opportunity for delegates in the iGaming affiliate community to take advantage of customised coaching which is generally readily available in our industry.”

This year’s speaker lineup includes a range of digital experts such as Square in the Air Director Robin Hutchison, Alex Burgess and Frankie Hobbs of GOAT agency, Ayima Chief Strategy Officer Rob Kerry and Duncan Thomas, Head of Innovation for Pomegranate – a leading UK agency specialising in the psychology of emotion within UX and Design.

‘The future now’ creative heralds opening of iGB Affiliate registration

Clarion Gaming, organisers of iGB Affiliate has adopted ‘The Future Now’ as its creative proposition to help drive participation in the industry-leading show which takes place across 6 – 9 February at ExCeL London. Registration for what will be the last edition of iGB Affiliate to be held in London prior to its relocation to Barcelona in 2025

Explaining the background to the campaign creative iGB Portfolio Director Naomi Barton said: “The Future Now was inspired by our customers and broader stakeholder community who during a comprehensive engagement programme told us that they viewed iGBA as the place where the industry’s brightest and best come together to define the future of the industry.

“For so many of our stakeholders the future starts at iGB Affiliate which represents their most important business opportunity of the year. The event messaging captures the pioneering spirit of the industry and reflects iGBA ‘s status as the home of the iGaming Affiliate community. Our commitment is to connect the right people and the best opportunities, providing the fuel that keeps the industry moving forward.”

Looking ahead to what industry professionals will experience at iGBA 2024 Naomi Barton added: “We will be building on the iGB INTRODUCING facilitated onsite networking ‘hub’ to make connections that count and create excitement about the future that they will unlock. As the ONLY exhibition that’s focused purely on igaming affiliation every connection made at show is going to lead somewhere. In terms of content the Pulse Stage will focus on future markets, future tech and future opportunities.

“As this is our last year in London, there will be an iGB Affiliate ‘Farewell to London’ party like no other – and we will be celebrating alongside sister show ICE to ensure that we deliver something exceptional.

“For anyone involved in igaming the 2024 event is not to be missed: the new-to-show tech vendors we will be showcasing will help our audience to stay ahead of their competitors, and provide inspiration and new products being demonstrated by the circa 200 exhibitors expected at our farewell to the London edition of iGBA.”

iGB Affiliate Awards celebrate outstanding achievements, groundbreaking innovations and creativity

The international igaming affiliate community has until 20 October to provide their submissions for the coveted iGB Affiliate Awards, which recognise the outstanding achievements and groundbreaking innovations that have taken place throughout the sector over the last 12 months.

The winners across 20 categories will be unveiled at a futuristic fantasy-themed, black-tie celebration taking place following the second day of iGB Affiliate (8 February) at the Troxy, a Grade II-listed 1930’s Art Deco music venue which is situated just a short journey from ExCeL London.

Previewing the Awards, iGB Portfolio Director Naomi Barton said: “This is the event where the igaming affiliate community is able to collectively let its hair down after an action-packed opening day at the premier show for the sector, and recognise the success of colleagues and competitors in the sumptuous surroundings of one of London’s most-loved Art Deco entertainment venues.

“Recognised for being the Oscars of the industry, the iGB Affiliate Awards comprise 20 categories, 19 of which are open to the industry to enter or vote on. The remaining category – for Affiliate Idol (aka Lifetime Achievement Award) – is selected by an in-house panel but in a change for 2024 we are now inviting suggestions from the industry. The Awards are free to enter. There is no limit on the number of categories you can put yourself or your company forward for – if you feel you meet the entry criteria, then we want to hear from you!

“As iGB Affiliate prepares to say goodbye to London ahead of the show’s 2025 relocation to Barcelona, we want to ensure that the 2024 Awards will be the best edition yet. Which is why we are pulling out all of the stops with a theme which brings together the worlds of cyberpunk and fairytale as the backdrop to showcasing the creativity which runs through the sector.”

With something for everyone to enter, the Affiliate Awards Categories comprise: Best Casino Affiliate, Best Sports Betting Affiliate, Best Bingo Affiliate, Best Poker Affiliate, Best Crypto Affiliate, Best Streaming Affiliate, Marketing Campaign of the Year, Affiliate Employer of the Year and Safer Gambling Initiative of the Year. Individual Categories: Best Affiliate Manager and Affiliate Idol (Lifetime Achievement Award). Programme/Network Categories: Best Affiliate Programme and Best Affiliate Network. Service Provider Categories: Best Tech for Affiliates, Best Tech for Affiliate Programmes, Best Digital Agency and Game of the Year (Public Vote). All Companies: Rising Star, Best Newcomer and Innovator of the Year.

The iGB Affiliate Awards are decided by an external panel of industry judges selected for their expertise on both the igaming affiliate sector and in specialist areas relevant to individual awards, such as safer gambling. All 18 confirmed judges have signed an NDA to keep submitted information confidential and the winners’ names secret until the event has taken place. They are also obliged to declare any potential conflicts of interest prior to judging. Judges are allocated categories aligned to their areas of industry experience and knowledge, and to avoid potential conflicts of interest. Access to submissions is restricted to the judge’s allocated categories.
