Sue Dawson

Operations Director – Sue Dawson has been with FTD Digital since 2012, primarily working on content, strategy and SEO. An instantly recognisable figure at industry conferences, she has spoken at several of them on subjects including online bingo and affiliate strategy and compliance.

I was delighted and honoured to once again be invited to the EGR Power Affiliates Summit, one of the most exclusive and enjoyable events on the iGaming calendar. Last week I travelled to the Puente Romano Beach Resort, Marbella to meet with senior executives from companies featured in the EGR Power Affiliates Rankings, sponsors and other invited guests for a day of intensive discussion, networking and socialising.

As well as some very informative presentations, the event featured 6 different roundtable talks, each faciliated by an expert in the field. Topics covered included market developments, acquisition strategies, media partnerships, SEO for affiliates, M&A and operator-affiliate relationship management.

After the discussions, we had networking events in two beautiful locations followed by a delightful dinner. As always at this event, it was a fantastic opportunity to meet and connect with people from other parts of the industry working in other verticals and other geos as well as those whom one would normally regard as competitors.

As to exactly what was discussed, that I can’t tell you – the EGR Power Affiliates Summit is run under Chatham House rules. But I certainly have some high quality takeaways that mean it was very much worth the journey. A huge thank you to EGR for having me!

PS: the Puente Romano Beach Resort has the best buffet breakfast in the world – but watch out for the local wildlife!

Better not leave your breakfast unattended!
