OTT Question Time #69 – Emerging OTT Services & Models

Whilst Netflix, Disney, Amazon and D2C services from the broadcasters and film studios tend to get all the publicity, it’s easy to forget that the OTT market also has a huge number of smaller streamers. The UK, for example, has 288 of them according to the European Audiovisual Observatory’s database. France has 384. Sweden 83. And Germany, a little surprisingly, only (apparently) has 38.

It’s these emerging services – and their pay models – that we talked about at this week’s OTT Question Time (Thursday 15^th June).

Together with Matt Simpson, MD at Candyspace, Daniel Nordberg, founder & CEO at Playground TV and Weerada Sucharitkul, founder & CEO at FilmDoo, we discussed:

• The strategies and innovations that have enabled non-traditional platforms to carve out their space in the streaming market
• How new entrants cater to niche markets, diversify business models, and foster community engagement
• How they’ve leveraged technology to enhance user experience and differentiate their platforms
• How content can be more directly integrated into users’ lifestyles or activities
• And what the bigger streamers might be able to learn from them
