Description

The 2024 Radio and Digital Sound Broadcasting Summit – Africa, convened by Broadcast Media Africa (BMA), brought together key stakeholders across the radio and digital audio landscape to examine the future of sound broadcasting in a changing technological and consumer environment.

The summit served as a critical meeting point for public and private broadcasters, regulators, audio platform providers, and technology enablers to engage in meaningful dialogue about innovation, sustainability, and audience engagement in radio and digital audio services across Africa.

Now, the valuable insights, expert presentations, and practical resources delivered during the summit—including keynote addresses, interactive panels, and technical workshops—are available for public access.

From discussions on the transition from analogue to digital sound broadcasting, to the monetisation of podcasting and audio-on-demand, and the integration of AI in radio operations, each session offered strategic takeaways for professionals across the value chain. Captured in high-quality video, audio recordings, and comprehensive presentation slides, the complete resource set is now accessible through a dedicated knowledge portal—created to aid industry development, policy shaping, and innovation.
