AvantLink-Up : Urban SLC

May 2023 • EVO Hotel & Campus, SLC, UT

Set in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City at the ultra-unique EVO Campus and Hotel, the Urban AvantLink-Up brought together nearly 20 partners from across the affiliate and performance marketing space for two days of insight, interaction, and immersive city exploration.

This spring edition of AvantLink-Up stayed true to its roots: small group size, sharp conversation, and genuine connection between AvantLink team members and key industry players. As one attendee put it, “AvantLink has, as always, done an exceptional job of connecting industry solutions and tech with the human element so often overlooked.”

The event kicked off with a welcome reception at the EVO Bar, followed the next morning by a yoga session, breakfast, and structured roundtable discussions. Special guest Michael McNerney of MarTech Record moderated the sessions, guiding conversations on affiliate marketing trends, relationship-building, and the challenges shaping the future of the space.

But no AvantLink-Up is complete without a little movement—and this one delivered. Attendees hopped on rented eBikes for an underground tour of Salt Lake City, featuring stops at the eclectic Gilgal Sculpture Garden, a brewery tour at Shades of Pale, and other local gems. It was a perfect close to a two-day event designed to spark new ideas, strengthen partnerships, and keep the outdoor spirit alive in an urban setting.
