Digital Radio Mondiale Consortium specialists will unveil significant DRM news and make important announcements during its impactful, in-person presence at IBC 2025, Amsterdam, the Netherlands (12th-15th September).
For this IBC edition, the DRM Consortium is putting the spotlight on receivers, additional services, and the rich benefits of the standard and its distribution.
There will be a particular focus on recent developments (i.e. digital radio decisions announced in China, Pakistan, Nigeria etc.), receivers (latest updated versions and the launch of a new DRM-DAB app available in Play Store), additional services, like the Emergency Warning Functionality – EWF and eLearning), and the overall benefits of the standard and its distribution on all frequency bands, including VHF band III.
During the first DRM event planned for September 12th guests will find out the latest on receiver solutions including video delivered using the DRM standard in a session hosted for the first time at the Starwaves (receivers) booth 8.B30h (1600-1730), part of the German Pavilion. Country updates including those from China will also feature at this event.
In the afternoon of September 13th Fraunhofer IIS (booth 8.B80 from 1600-1730) invites all those interested in digital radio to stop and join them to get the latest developments and announcements on DRM, like the R8 release of the DRM ContentServer technology and potentially an important industry cooperation project on the receiver side.
The next day, on September 14th, DRM latest news released at IBC 2025, will be presented at the Nautel event held at its booth 8.D70 – 1600-1730.

According to the DRM Chairman, Ruxandra Obreja, “the theme of this year’s IBC is perfectly aligned with the DRM message of ensuring your connected future. Enabling modern content in very good audio quality, accompanied by rich multimedia, delivering emergency warnings (EWF) and distance learning are just some of the aspects we will illustrate at IBC 2025. We are excited about all the new announcements to be made by our members in Amsterdam. DRM is making progress in many key countries of the world. In these turbulent times, global DRM is a robust, 21st century digital platform which saves energy and spectrum; alone, among other options, DRM can ensure modern, full-country coverage.”
