Spotify Technology SA is planning to host a brunch and build a pop-up podcast studio in Washington for Donald Trump’s inauguration and has sent invites out to podcasters to join, according to people familiar with the plans.
The events would give podcasters a place at the center of the conversation and acknowledge the growing importance of the medium to US politics. Logistics for the brunch and studio space haven’t yet been finalized.
