Swiss digital radio technology provider Audiospace, a product of Brands Are Live AG, has secured a major U.S. contract following a competitive pitch, winning the mandate to develop 240 digital radio platforms.

The deal is part of a broader collaboration with Connoisseur Media, led by CEO Jeff Warshaw. Connoisseur has significantly expanded its footprint this year through the acquisition of Alpha Media, adding more than 200 stations across over 40 U.S. markets, along with five San Francisco stations from Bonneville Group.

Warshaw said the partnership aligns with Connoisseur Media's focus on serving local audiences with strong digital offerings alongside local programming, noting that Audiospace's platforms support both listener engagement and advertiser revenue opportunities.

Audiospace CEO Jan Muller said the agreement reflects the growing importance of mobile and digital consumption in radio, calling the Connoisseur collaboration a significant responsibility and growth opportunity for the company.

The first Connoisseur Media websites and apps launched in early December, with additional rollouts planned in the coming weeks.

The U.S. win builds on Audiospace's recent growth, including the launch of 66 apps in 2025 for Seven Mountains Media. With existing partnerships, the company now powers more than 400 apps and websites for over 220 U.S. radio stations.

Internationally, Audiospace continues to expand in Europe, with strong growth in Germany and operations spanning Australia, Mexico, Spain, Italy, Lithuania, Austria, and Switzerland. In its home market, broadcasters including Media One Group, My105, and Radio Top rely on the platform.
