Our objective
Securing a successful future for commercial radio across analogue and digital platforms.
What we do
Digital radio offers significant benefits for listeners, providing a wider choice of stations, greater functionality and digital quality sound. However, FM remains a strong and popular platform which will also continue for the foreseeable future.
The future balance between these methods of transmission, as well as internet-enabled listening, is a subject of much debate in the radio industry. RadioCentre works with radio broadcasters (commercial and BBC), multiplex operators, Government and Ofcom to ensure that the interests of commercial radio stations and their listeners are at the forefront of any decisions on the future of digital radio.
