Network Strategy
Radio 1 will continue to become the number one radio brand for 15-24 year olds establishing itself at the centre of youth culture in the UK. The station plays a key part in reaching as many young diverse audiences for the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ across the nation.
The network’s primary focus is to grow habitual consumption of linear and on demand youth content in Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Sounds by providing industry leading music programming and mixes with the curation and context from our world leading DJ’s and presenters which cannot be found elsewhere. Speech and entertainment content will focus on what is relevant to 15-24 year olds and should always contextualise older reference points. Success of the current strategy will rely on strategically using the full 360 of the Radio 1 brand across linear, on demand, visual and social to create specific content designed to match the mood and needs of young adults in the UK.
