Musée des Ondes Emile Berliner

With the support of the German Consulate General

100 years ago this year, Germany's first official radio station went on air. To commemorate this event, the Goethe-Institut has created an extensive online dossier, entitled Radio around the world, with contributions from all over the world on the theme of radio.

In 2019, Canadian radio celebrated its centenary. To mark the occasion, the Emile Berliner Wave Museum and the Société québécoise de collectionneurs de radios anciens developed a chronology of the major milestones in the history of this mass medium, with a special focus on Canadian achievements. This chronology is presented in "Radio around the world".

To learn more about the evolution of radio and its place in Germany and Canada, we invite you to a discussion with :

  • Anja Borck, Director of the Emile Berliner Wave Museum
  • Prof. Serioja Tatu from the Institut national de la recherche scientifique Montreal
  • Denis Couillard, Director, Solutions Development, Ultra Intelligence & Communications, and author of La radio, une histoire d'innovation canadienne - Canadian Marconi Company (1895 - 1938) (tbc)
  • Dennis Kastrup, journalist
