A ccording to Forbes, the video streaming industry is valued at $544 billion, with projections indicating that by 2030 the sector is expected to skyrocket to an almost inconceivable $1902 billion. Looking at linear, Statista claims the global traditional TV and home video market revenue amounted to $384 billion in 2023. If these figures highlight one thing, it’s that there are significant bucks to be bagged in broadcast and streaming. Our autumn issue is here, focusing on the prosperous monetisation segment of M&E – and the tools and strategies available to networks, rightsholders and platforms when it comes to yielding every last penny of profit from their content. Elsewhere in this issue: it’s certainly been a turbulent time for politics, and even more so for the murky waters of the world wide web. Head to page 70 to check out Katie Kasperson’s analysis of social media’s impact on politics – both for bad and good. Struggling to keep up with the unsteady line of sustainable progress across media? Turn to page 48, where Neal Romanek breaks down crucial research from Altman Solon that helps signify exactly where the industry stands in the green department. Also, don’t miss this issue’s Genius Interview, where we meet Chloé Rochereuil, founder of VR production company Targo, to discuss the growing demand for interactive storytelling and content. This issue’s Xtreme marks the end of industry buzz term ‘summer of sport,’ with its main focus looking at the technical innovation powering the men’s Uefa Euro 2024 tournament. Plus, Adrian Pennington delves behind the scenes of AI in the context of sport and we report back on a site visit to France TV HQ – in the midst of the Paris Olympic Games. Finally, this issue features a very special announcement. We are delighted to share the launch of the FEED Honours List, our new annual celebration of broadcast technology and talent across all areas of this dynamic landscape.
