What conventions do you guys attend to seek out new vendors, industry info and hot new niches? Affiliate Summit? Ad:Tech? eMetrics Summit?
We attend all of the Affiliate Summits and ad:tech shows (but just because those shows seems to be the most relevant for my company). If we were to attend just one show for the entire year I think it would be ad:tech NYC. Also, there is an ad:tech next month in San Francisco which is a great show: http://na.ad-tech.com/sf/. Just a word of advice, if you go to these shows make sure to attend the networking events, these are where we tend to get most of our new partnerships from. Good luck.
