Hi there and Happy New Year.

With the ushering in of 2011 so the Affiliate Marketing Council will be electing a new Chair on Thursday 20th January.

This year there are four candidates drawn from all corners of the industry:

Sanjit Atwal, TradeDoubler
Ewan Darby, Ogilvy
Tina Judic, Found
Helen Southgate, Sky

There are nearly 50 companies eligible to vote this year (based on membership or attendance) and I've invited each candidate to outline their plans for the AMC in 2011 on the blog. Hopefully these will be on site within the next week or so.

Aside from the election we'll also be updating everyone on the following:

  • EU cookie laws
  • Brand Protection partner
  • The AMC Handbook
  • Plans for 2011

If anyone has an additional points for discussion please drop me an email.

Finally, for those who didn't see my review of 2010 and the thoughts of some of the Council regulars you can see these here.

The next meeting will be held at 3pm on 20th January at the IAB's offices in central London.
