We are living through a golden age of television. TV viewers have never had it so good thanks to the near endless flow of high-quality, diverse content and a wide choice of platforms and devices to access it on. Streaming is substituting legacy broadcast and cable channels as consumers embrace subscription video-on-demand (SVOD) and free ad-supported TV (FAST) services while advertisers are trying to work out where best to place their ad dollars. This webinar will explore the burning issues that all Connected TV industry stakeholders should be focussed on as they look to drive growth against the backdrop of a weak economic environment.
During this webinar, gain exclusive insight into expectations for 2023 and what the leading innovations are within the Connected TV space.
Webinar topics include:
- How the macroeconomic background is impacting the TV and Media markets
- Smart TV and streaming TV platforms:
- Growth expectations for 2023
- Operating system (OS) partnership trends and the impact of Apple tvOS licensing
- Connected TV device ownership by streaming platform
- Connected TV advertising trends:
- Will FASTs surpass broadcast and cable for ad spend and, if so, when?
- FAST or SVOD – Where should advertisers place their ad spend?
- Surviving the transition from analog dollars to digital dimes (or maybe quarters)
