Visitors to the Partners.io stand (L50) at iGB Affiliate London (8th – 11th February, show open days 9th – 10th February, ExCeL London) will have the opportunity to meet and have their photos taken with former Arsenal legend Ray Parlour and Francis Benali MBE who made a total of 389 appearances for Southampton over a 16-year spell with the south coast club.

Visitors will be able to discuss all things football including the Gunners prospects of lifting the Premier League title for the first time since 2004 with Ray on Thursday 9th when he will be on the stand between 13.00 – 14.30 hrs. Francis will be on hand to reflect on the season so far and Southampton’s chances of retaining their Premier League status the following day also between 13.00 and 14.30 hrs.

Confirming the celebrity appearances, Agni Raitar at Partners.io said: “We are both delighted and excited to have Ray and Francis on our stand at the forthcoming edition of iGB Affiliate London which will be the biggest on record. We will kick-off on Thursday 9th with Arsenal legend Ray Parlour who in a fantastic career played 466 games for Arsenal winning everything along the way including three Premier League titles, four FA Cups, one League Cup, one European Cup Winners Cup and was also capped 10-times for England. Ray subsequently went on to play for Middlesbrough and Hull City before forging a highly successful career in the media.

“On Friday 10th we welcome another club stalwart, Francis Benali MBE who clocked-up 389 first team appearances for his beloved Southampton Football Club. As well as enjoying a highly successful football career Francis also undertook a number of gruelling physical challenges for charity including running and cycling to all 44 Premier League and Championship stadiums in two-weeks and completing five Ironman races within seven days – in the process raising an amazing £1m for Cancer Research UK. As a result of these endeavours, he was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2020 New Year Honours for services to cancer patients. Both Ray and Francis have great stories to tell about their time in football and I look forward to welcoming them to our stand and introducing them to the industry at iGB Affiliate London 2023.”

42% of registrants operating in the United States

The 2022 edition of iGB Affiliate London (13-14 April, ExCeL London) will have a pronounced North American accent. The latest show data reveals 42% of industry professionals who have registered are operating in the US. The figure is part of the latest dataset released by event organisers Clarion Gaming. This also highlights the seniority of delegates, with close to eight in ten (78.9%) categorised as final decision makers.

Commenting on the data, Naomi Barton, portfolio director responsible for iGB Affiliate said: “We are still 10 weeks from going live and I’m delighted that the figures are looking strong, and positive for both our exhibitor and visitor communities. Lead events such as iGB Affiliate London serve to reflect the dynamics of the industry sectors that they serve and the uptick in US pre-reg figures is a manifestation of the market dynamics impacting the affiliate sector in North America. Figures from iGB’s principal data partner H2 Gambling Capital forecast 200% growth in the total addressable revenues for affiliates in North America over the next five years, compared to the global figure of 68%. Add the new states either launched or launching such as NY which had $1bn staked in 16 days and you get the picture of an extremely buoyant market.”

She added: “We are tracking comfortably ahead of the pre-reg figures for 2020 which represents positive news for the 160+ exhibitors already confirmed for iGB Affiliate London, who will be occupying 6,265 sqm of net floor space across three halls at ExCeL London. The Affiliate market is upbeat about the year ahead and I’m looking forward to a repeat of the positivity that we all experienced at iGB Affiliate Amsterdam and iGB Live! staged five months ago.”
