ACCENT Academy Applications Concluded

Thank you to all who showed interest in the ACCENT Academy. The response from emerging audio creators and media owners since our launch in September 2025 has confirmed the appetite for expert support in podcast development, audio production, and innovative audio projects.

We appreciate every application and the ambition behind each idea. The demand for guidance across podcast branding, audio growth strategies, and interactive audio content has demonstrated the depth of talent within the world’s audio community.

We now move forward with a selected group of creators and media owners who will receive twelve months of structured development through our collaboration with Say It Now. Participants will refine new formats, advance audio production skills, and explore interactive audio solutions designed to strengthen listener engagement and potentially unlock fresh commercial opportunities.

Applications will reopen in 2026. The next intake will again offer free access to professional audio support while ensuring creators retain full ownership of their intellectual property. Those interested in future opportunities can stay connected for updates on joining the next cycle.

The first wave of projects from this cohort will publish throughout 2026. These new audio experiences will showcase the next chapter of audio innovation and offer valuable new content for audiences worldwide.
