We have plenty of post-event highlights and content coming your way, so keep your eyes out for those in the next few weeks.

The sessions at Futuresource Consulting #AudioCollab2024 in London yesterday were nothing short of incredible. We were delighted to have Mikael Herje and Scott Campbell leading the discussions on some of the most exciting topics in audio. Mikael delved into what's next for headphones and how personalization and new technologies are changing the way we listen and connect with audio.  Meanwhile, Scott tackled the question: How can luxury audio brands stay relevant in this fast-moving digital world? Chaired by Futuresource's Guy Hammett, the panel delved deep into strategies for engaging the modern consumer at a time when attention is more valuable than ever.   Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to such a dynamic discussion on the future of #audio. We look forward to continuing to push the boundaries of this rapidly evolving industry!    #HARMAN #headphones #LuxuryAudio #technology #futureofaudio
