Parix Audio Day Keynotes Forecast Audiobook Future

from The Spoken World Hosted by BurstMarketing

The success of audiobooks with consumers has already been transformative for bottom lines across the publishing industry. Next, authors, publishers and readers alike can expect to see audiobooks influence the strategic direction of the global book business. That’s the takeaway from a pair of keynote presentations at the 2026 Parix Audio Day conference in Madrid. Survey data challenges a long-standing industry myth that audiobooks compete with books and reading, says Audible’s Barbara Knabe, and independent industry consultant George Walkley details the role of AI in lowering audiobook production costs and ultimately, redefining the listening experience.
