Futuresource Consulting Content Partnership Confirmed

Audio Trends and insights workshop planned

We’re pleased to share that global market research firm and consultancy, Futuresource Consulting, is on board as content partner for Channel Summit EMEA 2026. Specialising in market intelligence and trend analysis for a range of industries including EduTech, consumer electronics, displays and media, the workshop will focus on the latest developments impacting the audio category.

Guy Hammett, Senior Market Analyst at Futuresource Consulting will lead the workshop and is anticipated to discuss the impact of AI amongst other essential insights for audio brands and channel partners selling audio devices. 

In a recent announcement following the publication of the annual Audio Tech Lifestyles Survey, Hammett commented, “consumer excitement is beginning to shift. Some consumers are already embracing AI’s potential, as the technology begins to enhance sound, adapt listening experiences, and reshape how people interact with audio in their homes. While the technology is evolving quickly, it’s more about consumers becoming more aware of what it can do to enhance their listening experiences.”

Delegates attending Channel Summit EMEA 2026 can pre-register for the workshop once the online meeting system goes live. Full session and agenda details to be announced soon.
