Island Conference Becomes Newest ASACP In-Kind Media Sponsor
LOS ANGELES (Apr. 27, 2026) — The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is pleased to name Island Conference as its newest In-Kind Media Sponsor. Now in its 30th year, ASACP is an award-winning, globally recognized, member- and sponsor-supported nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting online child safety by proactively helping parents and businesses protect children from online harms. ASACP’s sponsors are reputable industry leaders known for ethical and responsible practices, using technical and procedural measures that enhance online child safety. These efforts protect minors and sensitive users from exposure to age-restricted content online, helping to preserve their innocence as they navigate digital spaces. ASACP’s newest In-Kind Media Sponsor, i-Con/Island Conference, is a Cyprus-based event that brings together professionals from online high-growth industries, including iGaming, growth strategies, online payments, AI, SEO, and tech. It’s designed as a space to Learn, Meet & Connect, with a focus on responsible growth and long-term sustainability across the sectors we represent. Designed to enable real connections and measurable results, i-Con attracts more than 3,000 attendees, including over 120 exhibitors and sponsors from a range of high-risk, high-reward industries. With 50 speakers presenting across seven stages, expanded exhibition areas, dedicated meeting points, a full schedule of side events, and more, i-Con’s focused sessions cover SEO, iGaming, growth strategies, online payments, and the latest in AI and tech. The next i-Con is set for May 28-29 in Limassol, Cyprus. “We believe that protecting minors online is a shared responsibility that starts with awareness, accountability, and action from all stakeholders,” an event spokesperson explained. “Creating awareness and taking active steps to keep children away from inappropriate content is a shared responsibility across the industry.” ASACP’s Executive Director, Tim Henning, expressed gratitude for Island Conference becoming the newest stakeholder in the association’s mission and emphasized that each sponsor plays a vital role in creating a safer online environment by supporting the association’s child protection initiatives. “The dedication of these industry leaders to safeguarding young people’s innocence, while honoring adults’ choices, is creating a notable difference,” Henning expressed. ASACP’s sponsors and members supply the reach and resources required for the association to provide free child protection tools to educators, parents, and media publishers. These include Best Practices customized for various market segments and a versatile Code of Ethics for all website and app publishers. These resources enable companies of all sizes to prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content. Among ASACP’s most notable achievements are its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system, which prevents children from accessing adult-oriented web pages and apps, and its CSAM Reporting Tipline, which has processed over 1.3 million reports since its inception and remains a vital global resource. The association’s family of industry leaders, including In-Kind Media Sponsors such as Island Conference, is crucial in making its tools accessible to the broader community. ASACP’s In-Kind Media Sponsors also play a vital role in the association’s industry outreach by expanding its reach into new venues to promote online child safety. “Protecting the innocence of youth online isn’t just about preventing access to the most mature content. It also involves educating and empowering all industries that feature age-restricted or other adult-themed topics,” Henning concluded. “Here, Island Conference’s support will significantly benefit the association.” For more information, visit Island-Conference.com.
