The Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM Consortium will have its General Assembly in London next year.

The two day session will take place at the BBC Headquarters, New Broadcasting House on March 26 and 27.

Under the title “DRM in Action” the Consortium say they want to make this “the most inclusive event in its history, a moment to consider the benefits of DRM and its progress, an affirmation of the power of digital radio”.

The first day will be open to all DRM members and invited guests from the UK and abroad.

The morning will be devoted to informative presentations on the extra benefits of digital radio; the impact of radio and insights into markets around the world, in particular India and Brazil.

In the afternoon, all delegates will be able to have a “hands–on” experience of DRM and digital radio. It will be an ideal opportunity to network with fellow professionals from across the globe and to see how the new technology can offer choice of content and benefit audiences.

The event will be hosted in the iconic Radio Theatre of the BBC.
