Silicon Valley is flooded with AI-hopeful startups, most of which have not even considered what’s going to power their ill-conceived concepts of business, never mind if there even is demand for such things. Nearly nothing on-device AI.

audioXpress August 2025 Acoustics Focus. Proud of this one.

People have asked me where to go now that Micros**t is killing #Skype. For now I’m using www.viber.com/en/. It’s the closest alternative, running on all platforms, desktop and mobile and with the same level of free. Chat, calls and sharing files. And free stickers (Rakuten is a Japanese company).

And just like that, it’s over. We dived in at #CES2025 and never stopped. Every meeting surprised us with great technologies and demonstrations. Thank you for the water, the lip balm, and the swag. We will be back next year and couldn’t recommend it more.

My wishes of a Prosperous New 2025!
While challenges may lie ahead, our resilience and determination will guide us through.

Some acquisitions in the #audioindustry are highly discussed and debated because of brand notoriety. Others are barely noticed and yet represent a significant strategic move with interesting synergies.
