Podcasting Without Borders: A Global Perspective with BBC World Service

21 May 2025
Talking Podcasts Stage
Industry Creator
75% of the world doesn’t speak English — and only 6% speak it as a first language. It’s time for a truly global view of the podcasting industry. In this thought-provoking session, the BBC leads a vital conversation on how to create and scale audio content for the 94% of the world who speak other languages. We’ll move beyond translation to explore what it really means to globalise podcasting — through cultural relevance, local voices, and deep audience connection. Focusing on dynamic and fast-growing regions such as LatAm, India, and MENA, we’ll showcase the scale and opportunity beyond the English-speaking world. Hear directly from global industry leaders as they share perspectives, challenges, and insights from building in diverse markets. If you care about the future of audio, this is the conversation you don’t want to miss.
