During the sold out Affiliate Summit West 2010 event, several industry press releases went out for new affiliate programs launches, product upgrades and an acquisition. I’m sure there were other exciting announcements at the show, but these are the only ones I could find press releases for. Three of the companies mentioned are 5 Star clients, so I’m excited to share their news.
