Darryl von Däniken

Darryl discovered the business of media and its value for brands whilst studying Architecture during the 90’s electronic dance music movement and went on to curating experiential events for brands such as Ford, Smirnoff, Gillette and the Body Shop, and media festivals such as the International Emmys.

As an early adopter of social media in 2001, he joined tilllate.com as Head of Strategic Partnerships where he matched brands with night life events specifically for online distribution, leading him to also connect with the audio and radio industry as part of the digital media mix.

In 2010, Darryl founded the International Radio Festival, the world’s first forum to showcase and debate the business and curation of music radio entertainment and in turn reaching millions of global listeners. In 2014, he was appointed General Secretary of the SwissRadioDay by the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation.

In 2020, Darryl founded BrandAudio Media, one of the world’s first full-service multi-lingual audio production agencies specialising in branded podcasts, supporting clients to get heard in the audio space of their customers - the earphone generation.
