Radio is much more than “an industry”. It’s a high-passion career and medium that’s truly integral to hundreds of Canadian communities. For many of us, it began behind a microphone, inspired by the excitement, intimacy and connection that broadcasting uniquely offers.
My broadcasting journey and career started fresh out of BCIT Broadcast Journalism, driving in my old Ford Falcon to my prized practicum at CHNL Radio Kamloops! I’ve been fortunate to witness firsthand the resilience and adaptability of the Canadian radio industry across decades. From navigating technological disruptions and economic shifts to embracing digital transformation, Canadian radio professionals have consistently risen to the challenge. Even in the face of unprecedented complexities, radio continues to thrive, powered by the extraordinary talent, creativity, dedication, and professionalism of thousands of Canadians who tirelessly serve and enrich their local communities every day.
At Broadcast Dialogue, we deeply understand and appreciate the value these individuals bring to our society. This recognition led us to launch the Broadcast Dialogue – Canadian Radio Awards in 2020; an initiative designed to honour and celebrate excellence across all areas of radio broadcasting. We’re proud of how the awards quickly established themselves as Canada’s premier showcase, spotlighting the remarkable achievements among on-air talent, management, news broadcasters, community service contributors, producers, engineers, promotions, sales, and more.
As we prepare for the annual Broadcast Dialogue – Canadian Radio Awards, we invite you to join us in 2025 in acknowledging and supporting this vibrant industry. Your involvement is more than just a marketing opportunity; it’s a statement of support for an industry integral to the cultural and social fabric of our country.
Sponsorships are available for ownership groups as partners and industry vendors as award sponsors. Sponsors benefit from extensive and targeted promotional exposure, including strategically placed banner advertising, dedicated e-blasts to our extensive subscriber base, robust social media outreach across LinkedIn, Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Spotify, and tailored branding opportunities aligned with the awards.
For our presenting sponsor, we offer an exceptional, high-visibility sponsorship opportunity: an exclusive 24-hour site takeover of BroadcastDialogue.com on the day winners are announced. This exclusive package puts the presenting sponsor front and centre, prominently displayed across every webpage, podcast episode, newsletter, and digital communication that day, associating your brand with excellence, innovation, and leadership in Canadian radio.
We’re excited to once again help recognize excellence and celebrate exceptional staff teamwork and commitment. Contact Rob Brimacombe directly to discuss how your organization can become an integral part of the The 2025 Broadcast Dialogue – Canadian Radio Awards.
