MyAffiliates, the leading* iGaming affiliate tracking software platform, announces that their Group CEO, Clemence Dujardin, will be a key speaker at the forthcoming iGB Affiliate 2025, Barcelona this month – sharing insightful words on the critical role of transparency between affiliates and operators, as part of a highly coveted inspirational panel.

Following over 13 highly successful years at MyAffiliates, Clemence Dujardin is highly regarded in the iGaming industry – and in 2023 was unveiled by iGB as one of the top 10 most influential women in the iGaming industry. Her formidable career has covered a number of industry sectors, including affiliate management and affiliate software technology companies before joining MyAffiliates, based in Malta, in 2012.

Other significant accolades include Malta’s Best Gaming Woman Leader of the Year in 2018 and 2019 and CEO Woman Of The Year at SiGMA in 2021.

Her panel speaker slot at the iGB Affiliate, Barcelona will take place at 15:15-16:00 on Wednesday 22nd January 2025 and is titled: ‘Trust and Transparency: What Does a Win-Win Affiliate Data Share Look Like?’

In iGaming, transparency can make or break partnerships; however, many affiliate relationships still lack transparency, leading to friction and mistrust. Sharing data and providing access to analytics is key, as it gives affiliates detailed insights into traffic sources, player behaviour, and campaign outcomes.

iGB Affiliate, Barcelona – part of the global gaming exhibition at Fira Barcelona Gran Via – takes place from 20-23 January 2025 and brings together over 8000 iGaming affiliates and operators, providing the ideal landscape for networking with industry leaders and peers. And, with over 200 exhibitors, it is a truly inspirational exhibition showcasing the latest products and services across the industry. Delegates can meet Clemence and learn more from her team on stand A60.

Other news from MyAffiliates includes the launch of a new, groundbreaking AI affiliate assistant – Boostbox by MyAffiliates. This revolutionary AI tool will help affiliates access brand data in a split of a second, giving them real time access on new promotions, bonus requirements, T&C updates and more. Boostbox by MyAffiliates generates unique content tailored to each brand and affiliate, helping affiliates save resources on research and content creation, allowing them to be reallocated to other tasks.

The team will also anticipate the results of the International Gaming Awards – following the MyAffiliates nomination in the highly competitive ‘Customer Service Company of the Year’ (Supplier) category.

Clemence Dujardin, Group CEO at MyAffiliates, comments, ”As the gaming industry continues to grow, 2024 has been an exceptionally strong year for us here at MyAffiliates. We’re excited to be visiting iGB Affiliate once again and provide delegates with the opportunity to trial our programmes first hand. Speaking alongside such strong thought-leaders will be inspirational and I look forward to learning from their insights on the panel. It should make for a great discussion.”

She continues, “As we continue to expand into new markets, whilst fostering our established partnerships with over 300 operators- and launching new features like our cutting edge BoostBox – we know 2025 is going to be huge. What better way to kick things off than at iGB Affiliate. We can’t wait. Put the date in your diary and we look forward to seeing you there.”

MyAffiliates has long been a powerhouse in affiliate marketing software, empowering iGaming operators to bring all their brands and products together under one seamless affiliate system. Since its launch in 2007, MyAffiliates has set the standard in the industry, becoming the go-to platform for iGaming operators.
