This June, London plays host once again to The Advanced Email London Conference - Europe's sole independent gathering dedicated entirely to the often overlooked, but fiercely influential world of brand-side email marketing.
Taking place at 1, America Square on 17th June 2025, the conference promises to be a dynamic gathering of the industry's brightest minds, offering fresh insight into a channel that remains one of the most powerful – and underleveraged – in modern marketing.
The Advanced Email London Conference has built a reputation for going beyond the basics. Instead of rehashing outdated best practices, it zeroes in on what matters: advanced, customer-focused strategies that drive real results. The agenda is tailored for marketers who want to challenge assumptions, spark innovation, and deliver tangible value to their brands.
This year's speaker lineup includes heavyweight voices from across sectors. Expect strategic insight from Jaime Arribas, Digital Channel Lead at KFC UKI; Emma Godwin, Head of CRM Group Strategy at Tesco; and Frank Ravanelli, VP of AI & Affiliates at FOREO. Also taking the stage are Flo Duncan, Head of Communication Platforms at Vitality, and Nicola Taylor, CRM Lead at Specsavers – alongside a host of other experts shaping the future of email.
The agenda delves into the cutting edge of email marketing, with sessions that reflect the industry's evolving priorities. A panel and Q&A on AI and automation will explore how brands can harness intelligent technology to personalise at scale without losing the human touch. Meanwhile, a delegate-led discussion on captivating content and copy promises practical insights into crafting messages that truly resonate. Customer engagement takes centre stage in another interactive panel, addressing the challenges of building lasting relationships in an inbox often cluttered and ignored. And for those seeking fresh inspiration, the spotlight on innovative email design will reveal how creativity and functionality combine to drive impact. These highlights are just the tip of the iceberg in a programme packed with actionable strategies and forward-thinking ideas.
With its focus firmly on brand-side challenges and solutions, the conference offers a rare peer-to-peer environment free from agency sales pitches. Attendees can expect a mix of practical takeaways, strategic debate, and honest conversations about what works – and what doesn't – in the ever-evolving email landscape. Feedback from previous years has been overwhelmingly positive. Lloyds Banking Group described it as "definitely worth attending," while McCain Foods praised the "range of speakers" and "lots to implement in the business." With email marketing playing a pivotal role in customer retention and revenue, this is a must-attend event for marketers looking to elevate their strategy.
As the digital noise grows louder, email remains one of the few channels where brands can cut through with clarity, purpose and measurable results. The Advanced Email London Conference isn't just another marketing event - it's where the inbox gets reimagined. If you work brand-side and want to stay ahead of the curve, this is your reminder to grab a front-row seat.

Up 79% in 5 years, this UK travel stock is still a Strong Buy, according to brokers

Hostelworld (LSE: HSW) is a small-cap UK stock that suffered during the pandemic five years ago. As global travel came to a standstill, the hostel-booking platform's revenue fell off a cliff, driving the firm into the red. However, with those dark Covid days thankfully in the rear-view mirror, the share price has been steadily regaining lost ground. It's gone from 77p back then to 136p, representing a gain of roughly 79%. Yet City brokers see further potential gains ahead, and have a consensus price target of 192p. That's 40% higher than the current level, though there's no guarantee it will reach that price within the next 12 months. Interestingly though, all seven analysts covering this small-cap stock are very bullish, rating it as a Strong Buy. What do they see in Hostelworld? Let's check out some details. For those unfamiliar, Hostelworld is basically the Airbnb of hostels. It acts as a marketplace, taking commission when travellers book accommodation via its website or app. The company has hostel partners in over 180 countries, and younger travellers make up the majority of bookings. In 2019, Hostelworld generated €80.7m in revenue and a net profit of €8.4m. Then it endured three years of losses before returning to profitability in 2023 as global travel rebounded after the pandemic. In 2025, it's expected to report €97.5m in revenue and a net profit of €13.9m. So it's managed to weather the Covid storm, and is growing once again. Building on this momentum, management recently set out a growth plan. The target is for low double-digit revenue growth in 2026 and 2027, with an adjusted EBITDA margin above 20%, and adjusted free cash flow conversion of about 70%. The company has a strong balance sheet, with no debt, and an €8m net cash position at the end of 2024. The dividend has been reinstated, with a progressive policy of 20%-40% of adjusted post-tax profit, starting in the second half of this year. It has also just commenced a £5m share buyback programme. One area the firm is seeing success in is its social network. This allows members to message, connect, and meet up with like-minded travellers. Launched in Q2 of 2022, the network had 2.6m members by Q1 2025. These social members are booking 2.2 times more than non-members over the first 91 days after signing up. So there is evidence of strong network effects emerging here. Hostelworld will also start including more budget hotels and other accommodation options on its platform. While that might spur growth, it also takes it further into competition with Airbnb, and others. Also, global travel demand could always be impacted by another pandemic or some sort of global conflict. So these are risks to bear in mind. That said, I like the social network angle, as it's likely to keep users loyal to the platform. I see a lot of monetisation potential. More repeat bookings should also reduce marketing spend, which has already fallen from 58% as a percentage of revenue in 2022 to 46%. Finally, the stock is trading at just 11 times next year's forecast earnings. Weighing things up, I think Hostelworld is worth considering for investors looking for a cheap small-cap stock.

New kennels and dog paddock granted permission at Westlinton farm

A NEW kennels and dog paddock can be built in the Carlisle area after planners at Cumberland Council granted planning permission for the development. The application was decided on Thursday (June 19) for a site at Moorhouse Farm in Westlinton and it includes associated infrastructure. According to a planning report the proposed dog paddock would be used to exercise the boarding dogs and would also be available to book to exercise dogs not boarding in the kennels. It states: 'The proposed development would diversify the existing farm business at Moorhouse Farm, providing sustainable economic activities which support the vitality and viability of the farm. 'Additionally, officers recognise that the proposed uses are land-based rural businesses and, because of potential noise from barking dogs, it is more appropriate for such businesses to be located in a more remote rural location, opposed to within a defined settlement. 'Therefore, it is considered that the application site is suitable for the proposed uses, and the proposals would support the local rural economy. In light of this, it is considered that the principle of the development is acceptable.' According to the report the proposed kennels would be well-contained within the farmsteading, sited within a field next to the farm complex and residential property, Arndore. It is proposed that the building would measure approximately 21.3m by 13.7m, with a height of 2.25m to the eaves and 4.15m to the ridge of the dual-pitched roof, providing 20 individual kennels, each with an indoor and outdoor run, an office, food store, and holding kennels. The report states: 'The building would be constructed from profiled sheeting to the roof and some walls, with wire mesh enclosing the outdoor kennel areas. 'The proposed building would be an appropriate scale which would be viewed in the context of the existing farm buildings and would be appropriate in design to the surrounding rural landscape. 'The proposed dog exercise paddock would be sited within part of a field to the east of the kennels, measuring approximately 43m by 38m. 'It would be enclosed via 2m high mesh fencing, though officers note there is also existing hedgerow to the north and west elevations which would reduce the visual impact of the fencing when viewed from public vantage points, the highway to the west and public footpath to the north. 'Overall, it is considered that the developments would be commensurate to the farmstead and would not have an adverse visual impact on the character of the rural landscape.'
