Research Presentation: “TV Redefined”

Viacom International Media Networks (VIMN) is about to release a new study, TV Redefined, which explores how people are watching television in this transforming viewing environment.

The results are surprising and, in some ways, comforting. In an ever-more digitally connected world, television and great stories still connect people to each other–perhaps now more than ever.

For this study, VIMN spoke to over 10,500 respondents ages 6-34.

They looked at 26,866 of their viewing occasions in 14 countries: Brazil, Mexico, Indonesia, Philippines, Australia, Malaysia, Singapore, Russia, Germany, UK, Italy, Poland, Netherlands and Sweden.

Presenter:

Christian Kurz, VP Research and Insights, Viacom


Session 3: 13 March, – 11:00- 12:30 (Marketing Room)

Title: OTT: new game, new rules for operators and content providers?

As OTT enters a new phase, operators wrestle with tougher questions. Should they partner with certain providers instead of competing with them? What risks and rewards are at stake long term? Is there a “right” business model to follow?

Don’t miss this timely workshop as leading content and platform experts come together to share real world stories and insights into this volatile market. They’ll demystify OTT and what’s behind current trends, including why

  • HBO, historically only available by platform sell-through, is going OTT in some markets
  • Netflix, the original OTT pioneer, is available through platforms for the first time
  • Net neutrality has the industry buzzing about who should foot the bill for delivering content

Join the debate as we dive deep into OTT and its impact on your business.
