Radiodays Europe 2023, the largest pan-European conference for radio, podcasting and audio content production professionals is winding up in Prague. The three-day gathering of professionals from public and commercial radio and independent audio content creators from across Europe was co-organized by Czech Radio. Czech Radio’s Petr Dudek spoke to Noel Curran, head of the European Broadcasting Union, and former Irish radio and television producer and journalist, about the significance of radio in the present day.
“Radio is a very intimate medium. People feel very connected to it. I think television is a wonderful medium, but it is more transigent, people feel that they “own” that radio channel, they feel that this is my connection with the day, and my connection with this presenter or this story. I think that is quite important today, that we don’t lose that intimacy. We have so much choice across social and broadcasting media, but trust intimacy. They are not words that people use around media, but they are very important.”
