RadioAsia - the annual conference for radio broadcasters in the Asia-Pacific - will move to India in 2010 and be held in New Delhi on 22-24 February.This was announced today by the organisers - the Asia-Pacific Broadcasting Union, (ABU), the Asian Media Information and Communication Centre (AMIC), and Singapore Exhibition Services. Since its inception in 2005, the conference has been held in Singapore in conjunction with the BroadcastAsia exhibition, but this year the organisers decided to start moving the event around the region to provide more opportunities for radio broadcasters in other countries to participate. Broadcasters in Indonesia and China have already expressed interest in having the conference in their countries in future years. RadioAsia normally attracts a wide range of delegates from radio broadcasters, communications academics and representatives of developmental agencies, and next year's conference will focus on the pressing issues facing the resurgent radio broadcasting industry in India and the wider Asia-Pacific region. The 2010 event will comprise a two-day conference and a number of workshops to be conducted by the ABU and AMIC on public services. Sponsors already confirmed for RadioAsia2010 include Deutsche Welle; The Nielsen Company; Media Prima Radio Networks, Malaysia; and The Broadcast Partner, Germany. Local organising partners will include All India Radio and Technomedia.
