The affiliate marketing circle has changed rapidly in recent years, and the single-industry traffic play is becoming increasingly difficult. Instead, those who can hop back and forth between iGaming, cryptocurrency, and fintech are holding the most opportunities. From June 26 to 27, 2026, the G GATE Affiliate Marketing Conference will take place in Tbilisi, Georgia, expecting to draw in over 7000 industry professionals. This conference is clearly positioned—not limited to any vertical field, but rather packing traffic makers, media players, SEO enthusiasts, and companies needing traffic acquisition into the same space, sparking cross-industry collaborations. If you often check PASA's official website for marketing event announcements, you'll notice that G GATE has rapidly risen in fame in Eastern Europe and has become an unavoidable landmark in the affiliate marketing circle.
Why is it not just an ordinary industry exhibition?
One characteristic of the G GATE venue is that it does not categorize and segregate like traditional exhibitions. The organizers deliberately mix practitioners from iGaming, cryptocurrency, fintech, and other fields together, allowing traffic operators and advertisers from different industries to converse directly in the same social area. This "cross-vertical mixing" design has made many collaborations, which are rare at other exhibitions, commonplace here—a team doing cryptocurrency media might just pick up an annual ad placement order from an iGaming platform during a coffee break.
How is the agenda arranged? It's not just about sitting and listening
The agenda design of G GATE blurs the line between learning and practical application. According to past conventions and directions revealed by the organizers, the 2026 agenda will likely include the following levels:
Keynote speeches: The speakers are not PPT theorists but actual traffic moguls and advertiser representatives currently in the field. The content shared is not trend predictions but freshly produced ad placement data and channel evaluations.
Exhibition booths and social areas: Over a hundred exhibitors will display the latest affiliate marketing projects, traffic monetization tools, and payment solutions, which you can directly experience and compare on the spot. The social area provides a dedicated space for attendees to sit down and discuss cooperation terms in detail.
Media buying championship: This is a distinctive feature of G GATE. Participants build and optimize their ad strategies within a set time limit on-site, competing to see who can achieve the best conversion data at the lowest cost. For those who want to observe top players' tactics, this competition might hold more value than any keynote speech.
Startup pitches and after-party: Teams with new products and technologies have the opportunity to present their projects in front of professional judges and potential investors, while the evening party is a time for all attendees to shed their business roles and build deeper connections. Many cooperation frameworks and business terms are often finalized in these informal settings.
Why has Tbilisi become a new hub for the traffic circle?
Georgia, situated at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, naturally plays a pivotal role in connecting the business networks of the East and West. Tbilisi's friendly visa policies, controllable business costs, and strong digital economy atmosphere have gradually made it a popular location for many affiliate marketing teams and internet companies to set up operational centers. G GATE chose Tbilisi not just because the organizers are based here, but also because attendees will find that their potential partners might just be working in the office building next door.
For those who are currently engaged in global traffic business and looking to find more monetization channels in fields like iGaming and cryptocurrency, the information density and networking breadth in Tbilisi for these two days are worth the trip.
