So total attendance at IBC - International Broadcasting Convention 2023 was apparently up 16% on the first post-COVID IBC last year - reaching 43,065. That's good news, although I certainly detected a somewhat subdued atmosphere in the halls this year with most vendors privately admitting to a dampening overall market leading to ever longer sales cycles. The post-pandemic bump in pent-up budget spend seems to be over as the CFOs at many customers are exerting more influence and 'caution' over the wider economy and longer term-industry shifts becomes a dominant mode of operation. #ibc2023#mediatech
Czechia 🇨🇿: International broadcasters are among those looking to enter the upcoming commercial DAB+ multiplexes. Some radios are already in the process of signing contracts with the operator. "There is a lot of interest in joining our DAB+ multiplexes, whether it is the whole network or regions, and there are also important companies from abroad that are not in analogue FM broadcasting," Procházka (CRA) told Digital Radio. The operator does not want to specify at the moment which entities are involved. The company is likely to be more specific during the summer.

Very pleased to read that the Czech auction of DAB+ frequencies for commercial radio has been successfully completed.
From the press release: The auctioned frequency blocks were divided among all eight participants of the tender. "I am pleased that we were able to complete the auction successfully, having satisfied all participating bidders and managed to allocate all the blocks on offer. Thus, nothing stands in the way of the further development of terrestrial digital radio broadcasting." said Marek Ebert, Chairman of the CTU Council.
The tender sets out development criteria that should ensure not only the successful development of DAB broadcasting, but also the efficient use of the allocated radio frequencies. The national networks are to cover 50% of the population and motorways within 18 months, and 80% of the population and motorways within a further 12.
