The Expo Floor Survival Guide: 5 Booths You Must Visit During RDE26

1. Spotwise.ai (The Home Team & Baltic Rocket)

• The Accolade: We were just named one of the Top 3 Fastest Growing Startups to Watch in the Baltics.
• The Tech: Spotwise AI is the world's most advanced real-time radio ad monitoring and sales automation platform.
• The Mission: We are building the AI Sales Copilot for the broadcast industry.
  • We don't just "show data." We turn real-time media signals across radio and digital audio into automatically executed sales workflows.
  • Imagine your sales team getting a lead the second a competitor airs a new campaign. That’s what we do.
• Why visit: To see the future of automation right here in Riga. And yes, to try the local beer we have on tap.

2. DTS AutoStage (The Dashboard Defenders)

• The Vibe: The future of the car dashboard.
• Why visit: If you work in radio, your biggest threat isn't Spotify; it's the car dashboard screen.
• The Tech: DTS AutoStage (by Xperi) is the global leader in making radio look beautiful in connected cars.
  • Go see their visual metadata demo.
  • Ask them about their new analytics on what listeners are actually doing inside the car.
  • My Take: If your station logo looks pixelated on a Mercedes hyperscreen, you are losing. These guys fix that.

3. Triton Digital (The Data Giants)

• The Vibe: Heavy-hitting metrics and programmatic power.
• Why visit: If you are serious about podcast monetization or streaming audio, you go to Triton. They are the benchmark.
• The Tech: Ask them about their latest Podcast Metrics.
  • They set the standard for IAB-certified measurement.
  • If you want to know how to sell your digital inventory programmatically without losing value, their team is the smartest in the room.

4. Radioplayer (The Alliance)

• The Vibe: Collaboration over competition.
• Why visit: Radioplayer is doing the hard work of keeping radio prominent in cars and on smart speakers across Europe.
• The Tech: Check out their Hybrid Radio integrations.
  • They are masters at switching seamlessly between FM/DAB and IP streaming without the listener noticing.
  • It’s a great booth to visit to understand the macro-trends of European radio distribution.

5. Aiir (The Visual Storytellers)

• The Vibe: Slick, creative, and incredibly user-friendly.
• Why visit: Radio isn't just audio anymore. It’s websites, apps, and studio screens.
• The Tech: Aiir makes some of the best CMS (Content Management Systems) and Studio Automation tools in the game.
  • Go play with their "Studio" product. It makes managing now-playing information and visual radio effortless.
  • Their design UI is beautiful—a rare thing in B2B broadcast software.

The Strategy

My advice? Do a lap.

1. Start at DTS AutoStage to see the future of the car.
2. Swing by Triton to talk hard numbers.
3. Check out Radioplayer and Aiir for distribution and visuals.
4. End at Spotwise.

Why end with us? Because after you've seen the car screens, the streaming metrics, and the studio tools, you are going to ask: "Okay, but how do I sell more ads against all of this?"

That’s where we come in. We track the money. We track the ads.
