Discovr Radio to Embed Across All Four Days of CAMP Toronto in First Major Activation with Beatcave
Boulder, Colorado, June 16th, 2026, FinanceWire
Live demo listening session to approve artists onto the platform in real time
New “golden ticket” subscriptions reward breakout performers on the spot
Studio takeover and on-site activations give creators direct access to Discovr Radio’s AI powered artist promotion tools
Auddia Inc. (NASDAQ:AUUD) (“Auddia” or the “Company”), an AI first technology company that has built a proprietary AI platform for audio identification and classification to reinvent how consumers engage with audio and how artists get discovered, today announced that its Discovr Radio AI powered artist promotion platform will integrate across all four days of CAMP Toronto, the flagship songwriting camp and music conference hosted by partner Beatcave, taking place July 16-19, 2026.
The CAMP Toronto activation is Discovr Radio’s first major on-the-ground execution under the Full Platform Partnership with Beatcave, Canada’s premier independent music community. Across the four-day event, Discovr Radio will be embedded in the programming, the studio, and the brand experience, giving working artists, producers, and engineers a direct line into the platform without leaving the room.
Discovr Radio’s CAMP Toronto activation includes:
- Day 1 (July 16) Kick-off Artist Demo Listening Session: A live demo-listening and artist feedback event led by Discovr Radio that opens CAMP Toronto, with an industry panel offering on-the-mic critique to selected submissions.
- Days 1-2 (July 16-17) Studio Takeover: Discovr Radio will host producers and artists inside the CAMP studio space, embedding the platform into the working creative environment for the first half of the camp.
- Days 3-4 (July 18-19) Brand Activations: Discovr Radio will run on-site brand activations across the final two days of CAMP, maintaining direct artist and producer engagement through the close of the event.
A First-of-its-Kind Demo Listening Format
The kick-off demo session introduces a format Discovr Radio has not run at any prior event. Every artist submission will be processed through the Discovr Radio platform in real time, and submitting artists will be approved onto the platform on the spot, compressing a process that typically takes a full day into the live moment of the session itself.
In addition, each panel member will be issued one “golden ticket” to distribute to a breakout performer of their choice. Each golden ticket awards the recipient artist free access to a Discovr Radio subscription, providing standout artists with immediate, no-cost entry into the platform’s promotion and analytics tools.
“CAMP Toronto is where we put everything we’ve been building with Beatcave into the room with the artists it’s designed for,” said Theo Romeo, Chief Product and Marketing Officer of Auddia. “Approving artists onto Discovr Radio on the spot, putting golden tickets in the hands of the panel, taking over the studio for two days, and showing up across the brand activations. This is what a real partnership integration looks like. We want artists leaving CAMP not just having heard about Discovr Radio, but already on the platform.”
“CAMP is Canada’s biggest songwriting camp and music conference, and we don’t hand it to just any partner,” said Jerome Ferguson, Co-Founder, Beatcave. “Discovr Radio understands what independent creators actually need right now. In a world where music discovery determines careers, having a platform that guarantees your music reaches real radio listeners isn’t a nice-to-have, it’s the kind of infrastructure we built Beatcave to connect our members with. This partnership puts that access directly in the room, and that’s exactly where it belongs.”
CAMP Toronto marks the first of two Beatcave CAMP activations under the Full Platform Partnership, with CAMP Vancouver to follow October 15-18, 2026. The integration also builds on Discovr Radio’s May activation at Departure Festival + Conference in Toronto, where the platform’s demo-listening format drew more than 65 submissions—twice the format’s capacity—and reinforced Auddia’s view of Toronto as a hub for substantial growth.
