BIG NIGHT OUT FOR AFFILIATES

6 February 2009

CAP awards recognise good work in the affiliate sector

 

The affiliate world turned out in force for this year's Casino Affiliate Programs Awards, made by the affiliate marketing directory for the online gambling industry to acknowledge good work by affiliate marketers.

Thanks to the generosity of Club World Group, InfoPowa attended the awards for the first time, and was impressed by the large turnout and good spirits of affiliates and affiliate programs from around the world who had traveled to London for the big event and the conference which followed it..

MC'd by a suitably mad-hatted Michael Caselli of Lyceum publications, the theme of the evening was Alice in Wonderland, captured by CAP staff and actors suitably costumed for the evening. The venue for the affair, The Brewery in London's Barbican area was recently named Event Magazine’s Best Venue of 2008.

The CAP Awards nominations process is peer-led, allowing members of the gaming affiliate community to nominate and vote in each category. The democratic nature of the process is designed to ensure that the CAP Awards represent a consensus of the online gaming affiliate community as a whole, and are not just the decision of the CAP administrators, a spokesman for the organisation said.
