Broadcast audio is going through a renaissance and in the battle for viewers every content provider is looking at how to increase output and improve content. While the headlines might look familiar, IBC’s audio exhibitors are responding to these needs in a variety of different ways.

EditShare will launch a significant raft of technology upgrades and new functionality at IBC 2023.
