CommerceGate Announced as Seminar Sponsor at XBIZ Summer Forum

LOS ANGELES — Internet Payment Service Provider CommerceGate announced that it has signed on as a seminar sponsor of the XBIZ Summer ’07 Industry Forum to be held July 11-13 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.

“We’re very pleased to join our colleagues in the industry for this very important event organized by the wonderful people at XBIZ,” CommerceGate CEO Bjorn Skarlen said.

In addition to the company’s seminar sponsorship, Skarlen also will serve as moderator of The Adult Affiliate Food Chain From A to Z panel on July 11 at 10 a.m.

The seminar, which Skarlen devised in conjunction with Johnny V of I-Bridge International, will explore a wide range of topics, including acquiring and securing domain names, shooting content and payment processing.

“We couldn’t be happier to have CommerceGate as a sponsor and participant in the Summer Forum,” XBIZ Publisher Tom Hymes said. “Last year, Bjorn proposed an ambitious idea for a seminar that is finally becoming a reality. The Affiliate Food Chain will be a very unique experience that provides attendees with valuable information in a way they have never quite seen before.”

In addition to Skarlen, Samantha and Jeff S from the CommerceGate team also will be in attendance to meet and network with show attendees. To set up a time to meet with the CommerceGate team while at the Summer Forum, email sales@commercegate.com.
