Welcome to BusinessCloud’s MediaTech 50 ranking for 2024.
Audoo tops the annual ranking of UK companies creating original technology to transform production and delivery of media and the arts – from virtual worlds to music, podcasts, radio, video, film and the written word.
Following the creation of an 87-strong shortlist, the final ranking was decided by a combination of selections from an expert judging panel (see below) and a public vote among readers of BusinessCloud. The ranking is supported by digital transformation experts Sputnik Digital.
