A lineup of radio industry executives and financial experts will discuss the business impact of significant regulatory changes affecting radio. "Pillsbury's Broadcast Finance 2019: Radio Unleashed -- Preparing for a New Regulatory World," hosted by Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, will take place Tuesday, September 24 from 4-5:30pm at the Radio Show in Dallas.

Scott Flick, a partner at Pillsbury, will moderate the session, which will focus on the opportunities for radio broadcasters presented by deregulation, such as the elimination of the main studio requirement and the FCC's potential relaxation of local radio ownership rules.

"That the FCC is recognizing radio's challenges where listeners' audio alternatives-and the competition for ears and advertisers-have grown exponentially may be as big a game-changer as the new competition itself," said Flick.

The 2019 Radio Show, produced by the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) and the Radio Advertising Bureau (RAB), will be held September 24-26 at the Hilton Anatole Hotel.
