Accedo – Can AI support the transition towards a more sustainable video ecosystem?
The OTT industry has undergone some major changes over the past few years. Market growth slowed somewhat compared to previous years and video providers have broadened their monetization strategies and shifted focus from subscriber growth to profitability.

Vizrt – Cloud considerations: how to guarantee success when ‘going cloud’
If you’ve been paying attention to the conversation around production rooms, “cloud” is everywhere, especially the benefits. But just because we talk about the benefits of going cloud, it doesn’t mean it’s a one-size-fits-all solution.
Different productions have different needs, from the size of what’s being captured to the size of the team working on it. Not only that but transitioning to cloud can sometimes entail changing from hardware to software and adapting to a new way of doing things.
To make a leap to cloud production and make it truly work for you, some considerations must be made.
Veritone – So, Your Content Is Finished…Now What?
Media has come a long way from its traditional production journey. The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the previously linear path of content production, transforming the process by creating new efficiencies and allowing content to have a second life beyond its initial creation and broadcast.
With AI’s robust capabilities in tagging, managing, and preparing content, production teams can now maximize content usage while optimizing resources, creating a more reliable flow of content even in times of high demand or disruption. In this article, I’ll delve into the evolving media ecosystem, highlighting the role of AI in content management, monetization, and the industry’s future.
Varnish Software – Making streaming more sustainable: three effective methods for achieving more with less
Streaming might be our favorite pastime, but beneath the surface, it’s a colossal energy-guzzling process that’s taking a toll on our planet.
Today, the average consumer worldwide spends about 19 hours a week streaming video – but this can be much, much higher for some. And with a population of more than 742,200,000, Europeans could have streamed more than 735 billion hours – or 83 million years – of content in 2022 alone!
To put this into perspective, every hour of video streamed emits roughly 55g of CO2e. This would mean that Europeans streaming habits account to roughly 40.4 million metric tons of CO2e in just one year – the equivalent of driving 210 billion km, given the average gas-powered car emits 192g of CO2e per km.
