Some points about affiliate conferences
An industry lives long life only when all its representatives don’t stop and continue developing their professional skills. When they don’t hide their great experience and don’t behave themselves like Gollum in “Lord of the ring” always telling “My precious!”. When they stay open, share the best experience keeping some secret tricks and making new trends independently. Then industry lives.
In the CPA world, an exchange of experience is a usual thing – long-awaited meetings with old friends and new partners on various continents are the main reasons why CPA has been developing greatly for years. Many conferences around the world, meet-ups, lounge discussions in the close arbitral clubs are the important parts of this industry.
You can meet Leadbit team on different familiar events but we’d like to focus your attention on some international conferences. We have quite extensive experience of visiting them all over the world. The 10 TOP international events in the affiliate world are below.
