I am pleased to announce that registration is now open for the a4uEvents Get2Gether on January 31st 2007.

Based at Sway Bar, London WC2, supported by buy.at, Tradedoubler, and match.com

We have a few different angles to this general event including;

- Drop in health clinics for all affiliates and merchants, for 1-2-1 advice from experts in the industry.
- Speed networking sessions by vertical, Just 3 minutes and then move on.
- Guest speakers and Q&A panels

All coupled with general networking throughout the evening, as usual a bar and buffet will be provided. This is the first of many events in 2007, a full list we be released shortly.

For full details please see our brand new blog for our events, at

31st January at the Sway Bar, London.

the URL was typed in as www.swaybar.co.uk not http://www.swaybar.co.uk/ so people don't get the correct page.

But I'm registered and the blog looks great.

Quick question, what are the verticals for the speednetworking going to be?

Hi, For those of you staying over, where are you staying, I don't know London at all so a little help would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Oh, and a Merry Christmas to you all.

or there's a couple of Travelodge places nearby if you fancy cheap + cheerful, Drury Lane or Farringdon are both close, or search by postcode (WC1) at letrooms.com or another aggregator site.

Haven't been to an event for a while and I'm really looking forward to the speed networking. Trouble is I don't know if I can introduce myself in less than 3 minutes!!!

Looking forward to discussing CompareStorePrices and The W3 Alliance with anyone who'd like to (or polite enough to listen anyway!).

See you all there!

Just signed up and paid my dues as an agency despite being less than a month into it. I could probably have justified putting my name down as an affiliate as that's where I'll get most of the value from the event, but no. I figured if I get one good lead out of it for the rest of the business by wearing the right badge that'll be a bonus.

I wish a couple of other names on the list could have been as honest, you know who you are Come on guys, who's going to take this industry seriously when some well known names are happy to short-change each other.

Matt I don't suppose I could have a two-tone badge so merchants and networks don't run away from me when I want to talk affiliate stuff

Really looking forward to the event as I missed the last London one.

Am a little disappointed to see that the Speed Networking session is only with one merchant as I was really looking forward to being able to get initial introductions to lots of merchants/agencies that I may not have had chance to talk to in the past.

I hope there will be some more merchants or agencies signing up for this?
If not I'll have to resort to staring at peoples badges and butting in as usual during the late night networking!

Quick question, what are the verticals for the speednetworking going to be?

I would sign up, if I had an answer to this question, no point in registering for the networking if all the affiliates are looking for is gambling/finance.

[Claire Hoyland]

A number of merchants have registered for the speed networking from all verticals including retail, travel, casino, finance & mobile & internet.

Check out www.a4uevents.com for full details and a list of attendees, most of which have registered for speed networking

Thanks Claire, I must have misunderstood the details about the speed networking

Just bought my ticket

Let's have a few beers at CAP too - I promise I won't take the piss out of you being a West Ham fan.

I was thinking about changing my avatar following the 6-0 humbling the other week... lol
