Futureaudio GmbH – awarded the state BSFZ seal (2025)

Buchholz in der Nordheide, July 1, 20 25 – On June 26, 2025, Futureaudio GmbH was awarded the BSFZ seal of approval by the BSFZ – making it the first company in the music and media industry to receive this award.

The BSFZ seal is awarded by the Bescheinigungsstelle Forschungszulage , an institution commissioned by the federal government. It recognizes the experimental development of an innovative, modular content management system (CMS) that sets new standards in functionality and efficiency.

The award-winning Futureaudio CMS is already being used successfully as a central platform by music and media companies. The solution enables the efficient management of content, clients and billing, the seamless supply of distribution partners and the mapping of individually customizable work processes.

Thanks to its modular structure, the Futureaudio CMS is not limited to a single industry, but can be flexibly integrated into a wide variety of organizational and business models – cross-industry and scalable. The platform was specifically developed to simplify complex workflows and efficiently link administrative and creative processes. By intelligently combining and automating all core functions, the system not only reduces operational complexity, but also significantly lowers costs. With the CMS, Futureaudio offers a future-proof solution for companies striving for maximum efficiency, independence and data control.

“The state BSFZ seal is an important confirmation of our research, development and innovation work and a strong sign of our technological orientation,” says Christian Quast, Managing Director of Futureaudio GmbH. “We are particularly proud to be the first company in the music and media industry to be awarded this seal – and to have been able to do real pioneering work. It is equally important to us that this innovation originated in Lower Saxony – away from the classic innovation centers in large cities. We not only want to show that future technology can emerge anywhere, but also encourage other companies throughout Germany to become active themselves and to shape innovation more strongly from within their own state. Rural regions in particular have enormous potential to create high-quality jobs and offer young people real prospects locally.”

What makes the Futureaudio CMS unique?

The Futureaudio CMS combines what traditional platform services and stand-alone solutions cannot: a central, customizable infrastructure that allows companies to fully manage their content, partner relationships and business processes – efficiently, securely and independently.

Instead of several separate systems, Futureaudio offers a flexible all-in-one platform – from content management to client and partner management to automated billing.

Originally developed for music distribution, the system is now convincing across all sectors – whether music, audiovisual content or other digital assets. Thanks to its modular architecture, it can be adapted to fit perfectly: store connections such as Spotify, Apple or YouTube Music, individual interfaces and exports for external partners – all configurable according to your requirements.

Your content, your rules: Clients retain full control over data, deliveries and workflows at all times – regardless of third-party platforms or external specifications.

The Futureaudio CMS is available as a white label solution: Installed on your own servers or securely hosted by Futureaudio – including maximum data protection and full integration capability.

In addition, Futureaudio offers customized enhancements, precisely tailored to your internal processes. This gives you a solution that adapts flexibly to your business models – for maximum independence, efficiency and growth.
