Key Affiliate Marketing Conferences to Attend in 2024

The dynamics of affiliate marketing requires us to update our strategies constantly. What better way to do this than to attend affiliate marketing conferences? Not only will you learn from leading affiliate experts, but also expand your network and have the chance to find partnership opportunities.

In this blog, we cover some key affiliate marketing conferences you don't want to miss in 2024. 

Why Should You Attend Affiliate Conferences?

Before we dive in with the must-attend affiliate marketing events of this year, let's cover why we should join in the first place and what we can expect when attending. 

Affiliate Networking 

Affiliate conferences play a key role in making new valuable partner connections, particularly for finding high-performing affiliates that work in your industry. This includes co-marketing and B2B partnership opportunities to expand your affiliate marketing program

At these affiliate marketing events, you have plenty of opportunities to book meetings (online or in person) with your target affiliates and potential partners. Most conferences also have arrangements for fun networking activities, such as cocktail hour or interactive games. 

New Affiliate Technology and Strategies

Top affiliate events showcase trends such as AI affiliate marketing, voice search marketing, and affiliate tracking technology. Also, you’ll be informed about new laws and regulations around e.g., cookie and data protection, all in the context of affiliate marketing. 

These developments and their implications for affiliate marketing are crucial to understand and integrate with your future affiliate growth plans.

Both expert speaking sessions and networking give you a wealth of information to develop a competitive edge and support your growth.
