Audio technology is part of our everyday life and it’s being used as a driving tool to connect knowledge, education, creativity, art and science. More and more startups and companies use audio technology for new innovations to improve people’s lives, by tackling everything from mental health and well being, entertainment and even social networking and dating.

In this panel we address questions like: how can audio technology be used to help people focus, increase productivity, mental health and learning? Why is it such an impactful tool, how is it used to create new ways of storytelling and how is the use of AI relevant to new audio technology?
