As the podcast industry matures, owning your technology and monetization strategy is no longer a luxury - it’s a necessity. In this session, Öjje Holt (Director of Growth at Podspace) and Chris Peterson (Senior Advisor at Podspace and CEO of DWNLOAD Media) will discuss why networks need control over their distribution and revenue strategies and explain how Podspace provides the tools to facilitate this without forcing you into a walled garden. Big platforms don’t just limit your control - they also take a significant portion of your revenue. Rather than giving away half of your income & data, explore how partnering with the right technology allows you to keep more of what you earn, scale according to your own terms, and build a sustainable, high-growth podcast network for the future.
