BVE Conference 2017 – The Future of OTT

I was asked to speak on a panel discussion at the BVE conference in London on March 2nd. As you can imagine from the topic, this was a very wide ranging discussion covering all areas of our industry.

The panel looked at how OTT content and delivery might evolve over the next five to ten years, as audiences watch more on more devices. We covered where OTT stood then and what might come next, including:

• Multiplatform viewing: mobile, connected device and smart TV

• Rights acquisition and DRM

• Monetisation models: SVOD, AVOD and TVOD

• 4K and HDR

• Data-driven advertising

• Live events

• The impact of VR and AR
