Affino is participating at PressGazette's Future of Media Technology Conference once more - on September 6th, at the Hilton London Bankside

I believe this is the third year in a row that Affino is participating at The Future of Media Technology Conference. For the first time I think combined with an awards ceremony - right at the end of the day.

You will need to venture south of the river to this year’s venue at the Hilton London Bankside - sort of half-way between Waterloo and Borough Market, where the nearest Tube stop is Southwark on the Jubilee Line.
