Parks Associates: 53% of Connected TV Device Owners and Intenders See the Benefits of Staying Within the Same Product Ecosystem
Future of Video pre-conference workshop on November 19 features insights from ATSC, FAST Alliance, Cineverse, Vevo, and more
DALLAS, Oct. 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Parks Associates today announced the speakers for its November 19 research workshop Consumers and Streaming Services Viewing Habits, the first day of the Future of Video conference at the Marina del Rey Marriott, in Marina del Rey, California. The pre-show workshop features a keynote from Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC), speakers from FAST Alliance, Fuse Media, Cineverse, Vevo, and more, and the firm's latest research focused on consumer preferences, the competitive landscape, and emerging business models.
Future of Video is sponsored by JWP, Adeia, FPT Software, SymphonyAI, Bango, and Wurl.
Parks Associates research shows the majority of households that own or are planning to purchase a connected TV (CTV) device recognize the benefits of staying within a product ecosystem—53% state it is easier to manage apps and preferences when using devices within the same ecosystem. With one-third of households planning to buy a smart TV in the next six months, companies looking to capture these households could succeed by emphasizing the ease of navigation across their portfolio, as well as the list of supported streaming apps.
"Customers are looking for an interface that is fast and easy to navigate but can also provide an expansive experience compatible across multiple devices and apps, especially AVOD services," said Mindi Sue Sternblitz-Rubenstein, VP, Marketing, Parks Associates. "At Future of Video, industry experts discuss the latest innovations to meet these demands, plus design and messaging strategies that will resonate with today's streaming households."
