Date & Time: Thursday, 5 December, 9am – 7pm SGT

Venue: Ballroom 2, Level 3, Amara Singapore

 

The growth of social media and user generated platforms has disrupted the video advertising ecosystem. But there is a huge difference in the viewing experience and audience engagement offered by platforms that are primarily driven by user generated content and publishers who carefully curate and invest millions in content for viewers.

 

The advances in ad tech and the increasing prevalence of Connected TVs today also enable far greater addressability and much richer data and insights, with the possibility of TV evolving into a full funnel marketing medium becoming a reality in the not-too-distant future.

 

With premium video advertising, whether on OTT, linear pay TV, FAST or FTA broadcast, now presenting significant new revenue opportunities, this year’s OTT Summit focuses on Advertising First.

 

And in this era of social media and UGC dominance in digital advertising, we believe it is important to continually advocate the benefits that only exist in a premium video environment. AVIA is focused on bringing the industry together to create this narrative and help craft a more sustainable future for everyone.

 

In addition to the OTT Summit, in a separate conference track running parallel to the main plenary sessions in the afternoon, key publishers – BBC Studios, iQIYI, Samsung Ads, StarHub and Viu – will be presenting the latest data and insights, programming slates and advertising innovations to a roomful of brands, agencies and planners in a series of premium video Upfront Showcases.

 

The Upfront Showcase is by invitation only. For publishers keen to be a part of the Upfront Showcase, get in touch with us communications@avia.org.  For brands and media agencies who would like to attend the Upfront Showcase, register here.

 

 

CAP’s Piracy Over the Top (POTT) 2024 Summit will be taking place on 4 December, the day before the OTT Summit. The focus of POTT is once again streaming piracy, which remains the biggest competitive threat to our industry, and in particular on social media and messaging platforms. POTT will bring together leading industry and government representatives from the Asia-Pacific region to discuss their experiences in combatting streaming piracy, what works, what doesn’t and what we can look forward to in the future to combat streaming piracy. 

 

Registration to the OTT Summit includes complimentary access to POTT. Kindly RSVP to confirm your seat. Visit POTT for more information.
