Neste års store radiokonferanse vil foregå fra 26. til 28. mars. Det er fortsatt noen måneder igjen, men det begynner å sive ut navn på spennende foredrgsholdere. Et av disse navnene er musikksjef i BBC Radio 1, Chris Price. Dette skriver arrangøren om Price:

"As Head of Music for BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra, Chris Price is the creative and editorial lead for the world’s most influential radio playlists, as well as for the BBC ‘Sound Of …’ poll and iconic live music brands such as Live Lounge, Radio 1’s Big Weekend and 1Xtra Live.

A music media strategist of more than twenty years’ experience, Chris has a global reputation as a champion for new music. As Music Producer for BBC Radio 1 from 2000 to 2006, he helped break UK acts such as Coldplay, Snow Patrol and The Streets, as well as international artists including The Killers, Rihanna and Scissor Sisters.

In 2006 Chris joined MTV as Director of Music Programming, running music policy for the network’s nine UK channels. At MTV he and his team gave artists such as Adele, Calvin Harris, Florence + The Machine and Mumford & Sons their first TV exposure. Later, as Head of Music for streaming service Last.fm, Chris was credited with introducing editorial to the platform for the first time, launching video content hub Last.fm Originals.

Re-joining the BBC in 2016, Chris has helped break artists including Stormzy, Dua Lipa, Lewis Capaldi, Billie Eilish, Wet Leg and Little Simz. During lockdown in 2020 he exec produced Radio 1’s first multi-artist charity song, a cover of Foo Fighters’ ‘Times Like These’, which reached no. 1 in the singles chart and raised over £1m for Children In Need and Comic Relief."

Et annet navn som er spikret til Radiodays Europe 2023 er Meenal Thakur, som beskrives som "solutions journalist trainer" spesielt rettet mot Sentral og Øst-Europa.

Det blir mer fokus på området konferansen arrangeres i, med Jeremy Druker, som er executive director of Transitions (TOL), en av de ledende organisasjonene for utvikling av media i Sentral og Øst-Europa, Transitions.

Den store radiokonferansen neste år vil bli lokalisert til Prague Congress Centre, som ligger rett ved metro-stasjonen Vysehrad på Linje C. Vil du vite mer om konferansen gå til: radiodayseurope.com
