We explore the evolution of broadcaster digital distribution strategies, including the value of ‘carriage’ within global SVOD services and whether Netflix/TF1 style deals could be widely replicated. What are the benefits to both parties, and the challenges? Are more modest co-promotional partnerships, like ‘A Taste of ITVX’ on Disney+, a no-brainer as everyone seeks incremental audience reach? This event considers the next steps for owned-and-operated BVOD, including the integration of fellow broadcaster brands and catalogues. We look at how broadcasters can harness YouTube for long-form content distribution, and how linear networks grow if they are split from studio and streaming platform assets. How do smaller channel owners prepare for an increasingly digital future? This event considers the role of owned apps, streaming-first EPGs, DVB-I and more.
