🎙[BREAKING NEWS] AFP, alongside Dawex, partners with leading digital and media companies to launch the #EuropeanAudioDataSpace 🚀 The European Audio Data Space aims to develop the first marketplace for the exchange and commercialization of digital audio content and podcasts. Accessible in multiple European languages, the platform will strive to revolutionize the audio content industry across Europe, fostering collaboration, innovation, and the exchange of high-quality, trustworthy content among producers. The European Audio Data Space initiative seeks to tackle key challenges faced by the European podcast landscape, including the difficulty of purchasing and selling trustworthy content among producers, the uncertainties surrounding metadata and sources, the limited international reach of locally produced podcast series, and the growing threat of misinformation spreading through audio content. European Audio Data Space is co-funded by the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology (DG Connect). The consortium behind the initiative includes AFP - Agence France-Presse (France), #Dawex (France), ENEX (Luxembourg), Europod (Belgium), Agora SA (Poland), a prominent private radio group, the news agency Agencia EFE (Spain), and Wake Word (Germany), which will develop a recommendation tool. 🎙 Read the press release https://lnkd.in/exNGdCvV #DataSpace #DataEcosystem #Media #AudioDataSpace #IndustryDataExchange
