To kick off the new year, FastSpring will have representatives in Las Vegas attending both the the 2012 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES), which runs January 10th-13th, and Affiliate Summit West 2012 (January 8th-10th). If you are a client or prospect of FastSpring and will be attending either of these shows, please contact us; we will be available to meet with you in person.
The International CES is produced by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), the preeminent trade association promoting growth in the consumer technology industry. CEA represents more than 2,000 corporate members involved in the design, development, manufacturing, distribution and integration of consumer electronics products. More than 140,000 attendees from over 140 countries are expected to attend CES, the premiere launchpad for new technology.
With thousands of exhibitors showcasing new products, CES is the biggest event of the year for the consumer electronics industry. The show includes exhibitions, a diverse selection of conference tracks. Keynote speakers this year include YouTube’s Robert Kynci, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, Qualcomm CEO Paul E. Jacobs, Intel CEO Paul Otellini, as well as a special “Power Panel” featuring the CEOs of Xerox, Verizon and Ford. For more information, visit www.cesweb.org.
Affiliate Summit West is a three day conference scheduled just prior to CES. It was founded in 2003 for the purpose of providing educational sessions on the latest industry issues and fostering a productive networking environment for affiliate marketers. This three day conference includes an exhibit hall with affiliate merchants, vendors, agencies and networks, as well as multiple tracks of educational sessions covering the latest trends and information from affiliate marketing experts. Last year, the Summit grew to close to 5,000 attendees. For more information, visit www.affiliatesummit.com.
