SUMMARY:The AI-Powered Radio Station: Essential Tools to Stay Ahead of the Curve
DESCRIPTION:AI is no longer a future concept; it’s revolutionizing the entire radio business (the original social medium) and empowering staff in every department from the studio to the sales office. Lee Price\, from radio software company Aiir\, brings a grounded\, radio production veteran’s perspective to the table\, demonstrating how technology once considered science fiction is being reshaped into essential\, jargon-free tools for modern audio. \nWhile the craft of content production sits at the heart of this session\, Lee explores how AI can serve every corner of the station\, from sales and marketing to HR and beyond. You’ll explore must-have AI tools—from producing radio “spec spots” with VO and music in moments\, to leveraging autonomous AI agents that carry out deep-dive research and generate comprehensive reports for commercial teams in minutes. This interactive session provides the latest insights for everyone in the building\, equipping you to stay ahead of the curve. \nPacked with fascinating global use cases and actionable takeaways\, this is a fun\, fast-paced session built for every skill level. Even if you’re an AI newbie\, you’ll walk away with a definitive list of time-saving tools and the confidence to use AI in your day-to-day work. Lee proves that the most successful AI integration is the kind that empowers the person behind the desk\, ensuring technology serves the professional rather than replacing them.

SUMMARY:Welcome Session / Opening Remarks
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Departure Festival & Conference and Radiodays North America – two platforms united by a shared belief in the power of music\, media\, and storytelling to shape culture. \nThis week\, we bring together artists\, executives\, broadcasters\, creators\, and innovators from across the global music and audio landscape – not just to reflect on where our industries are\, but to actively define where they’re going. \nFrom the stages of Departure to the conversations driving Radiodays North America\, this is a space built for connection\, discovery\, and momentum. A place where ideas turn into partnerships\, and where the future of music\, radio\, and audio is not just discussed but created. \nWe’re proud to welcome you to Toronto\, and even prouder to build this moment together.
