SESSION 5: Approaches for Growth and Sustainability
Day 2 – Wednesday 25th May 2011, 0900 – 1130
In the radically changing market, the broadcast industry is identifying new and better ways to ensure growth, viability and sustainability. The presence of personal video recorders, fixed and mobile broadband as well as multiple media platforms are impacting TV advertising revenues. So are the economic uncertainties and consumer behaviors that are favoring time-shifted and on-demand content. As the digital transformation continues to expand and escalate, can traditional revenue streams be depended upon significantly? Will hybrid combinations of advertising and subscription approaches be viable? Is there a ‘one-size-fits-all’ strategy for the broadcast industry to grow and ensure sustainability?
