AI at Radiodays Europe 2026: The Sessions You Can’t Miss
Artificial Intelligence is no longer a future concept for radio, podcasting, and audio – it’s already reshaping how content is created, distributed, personalised, and monetised. At RDE this year AI is a major focus across the programme, with sessions designed to move beyond hype and into real-world application.
At the heart of the programme is the AI Summit, a dedicated deep dive for anyone wanting to understand how AI is being used right now across the audio industry. Building on insights from previous years, the summit explores practical, proven use cases from broadcasters and innovators across Europe – from next-generation content creation and smarter workflows to hyper-personalisation and sustainable operational growth. Expect concrete examples, honest lessons, and actionable takeaways you can apply in your organisation immediately.
AI also features across a range of conference sessions outside the Summit. You’ll hear how broadcasters are using AI to better understand audiences, enhance storytelling, streamline production, and support creative teams – without losing the human connection that makes audio so powerful. These sessions look at how AI fits into editorial decision-making, talent development, and brand strategy, helping teams work smarter rather than harder.
For podcast and digital teams, Radiodays Europe offers sessions exploring how AI is transforming discovery, marketing, and audience growth. From optimising distribution to refining content strategy, speakers will share how AI tools can help shows stand out in a crowded audio landscape – while still staying authentic and audience-first.
Crucially, the programme also tackles the big questions around ethics, trust, and transparency. As AI becomes more embedded in audio, sessions will explore how to balance innovation with responsibility, maintain editorial standards, and ensure technology supports – rather than replaces – creative thinking.
Whether you’re a programmer, producer, editor, marketer, sales leader, or executive, Radiodays Europe 2026 offers a clear, practical roadmap for understanding and using AI in audio. If you want to move from curiosity to confidence, Riga is the place to be.
