August 2, 2021

MailCon has held seven conferences since 2017 serving the email marketing industry, and with the next one slated to take place January 11 through 13, 2022, at the Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, the company marked its return to events amidst the pandemic with the inaugural MailCon Meetup.

The networking soiree was attended by over 400 email marketing executives, publishers, advertisers, and other high-ranking marketing officials on the eve of Affiliate Summit East on July 18th in Manhattan.

Hosted and sponsored by Phonexa — the MailCon Meetup covered five hours of music, food, drinks, karaoke, and the MailCon Spotlight Awards honoring emerging companies throughout the global email community at the ultra-posh 48 Lounge in New York City.

“The MailCon Meetup proved yet again to be a one-of-a-kind networking opportunity for everyone who attended,” said Kristen Haines, Chief Executive Officer of MailCon. “We were excited to recognize and honor leading voices of innovation in the email marketing industry. Building trust and strong partnerships within our community continues to be our company mission.”
