Radio Ri and Radio OneFM are "Radio of the Year"

The Swiss Radio Day was a success on Thursday with around 400 visitors. The "Radio of the Year" prize was awarded on RadioDay 2006 to Radio Ri for German-speaking Switzerland and to Radio OneFM for Latin Switzerland.

The organizers of the most important event in the radio industry clearly focused on the new digital radio future. This future was the subject of the RadioDay talk as well as a special workshop. "The topic of digital distribution of radio programmes, which shaped this year's RadioDay, met with great interest in the Swiss radio scene," said the organizers.

With presentations on the RTVV (Radio and TV Ordinance), radio control research and many other workshops, this year's RadioDay offered a broad spectrum of current topics in the Swiss radio scene. The seventh RadioDay ended with a presentation by former radio personality Jürg Marquard. The next Radio Day will again take place in Zurich on Thursday, August 30, 2007.
