ASACP Attends Barcelona Summit

LOS ANGELES — Attendees at this year's Barcelona Summit will have the opportunity to learn more about the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) and its work on behalf of the online adult industry.

According to the association, the Barcelona Summit 2010 is a major international conference for the adult online industry in Europe. Taking place from Feb. 19-21 at the ME-Barcelona hotel, the show is expected to draw more than 450 participants from 30 countries. Programmed after the GSMA Mobile World Congress, The Barcelona Summit expects a significant rise in mobile attendance as well as other peripheral markets such as dating.

"The upcoming event will further be highlighted by intense international networking sessions, a stronger country focus, and great webmaster freebies as well as offering improved sponsor packages," an event spokesperson stated. "For B2B and webmasters, The Barcelona Summit will offer its participants an exciting learning experience, top-class facilities and a spectacular venue to achieve their business goals."

The Barcelona Summit will be distributing information on ASACP to all attendees and ASACP CEO Joan Irvine will be attending the event.

"Child protection is an international priority, therefore international expansion is a priority to ASACP," Irvine said. "Next week we plan to launch a Spanish language version of the ASACP website, www.asacp.es, in conjunction with the Barcelona Summit."

"We have plans to launch additional translated versions of the website soon," Irvine added.

"The Barcelona Summit strongly backs and supports the goals of the ASACP," Andreas Bischoff of The Barcelona Summit, said. "Extensive information on their activities will be widely available to all participants and sponsors during this Pan European event."

"We look forward to a long lasting relationship with an organization that represents the same commitments we have," Bischoff said.

Meetings may be scheduled with Irvine at the Barcelona Summit by emailing Joan@asacp.org.

Founded in 1996, ASACP is a nonprofit organization dedicated to online child protection, through its CP Reporting Hotline and Restricted To Adults (RTA) website label.
