Podnews Live (Manchester) 2023 Review

Podnews Live (Manchester) 2023 Review

Author: Mark Asquith June 15, 2023 Duration: 17:54

In this episode, I dive into my experience at the Podnews Live Manchester event on June 13, 2023. Held at The Lowry Theatre in Salford, Manchester, this event was an absolute success, buzzing with industry experts and enthusiasts.

An impressive lineup of speakers took to the stage, including industry stalwarts like Podnews' James Cridland & Sam Sethi, little ol' me, Crowd Network's Michael Carr, and many others. Each speaker brought something fresh, adding new energy to the dialogue about the future of the podcasting industry.

Personally, I walked away with three clear insights: the need for more Podnews events, more Manchester podcasting events, and more specific, smaller-scale B2B podcasting events.

Join me as I share my insights and reflections from this refreshing event​.
