NY ANALYS

30 June 2022

For the fourth consecutive year, Mediavision presents the Sports Analysis.

With the unique ability to attract both viewers and loyal subscribers, sports are a cornerstone in the TV and SVOD businesses. Over the last years, as a direct effect of the market transformation to online, competition over subscribers has increased significantly. Consequently, the cost of many sports rights has been pushed through the roof. For the stakeholders, it is of great importance to closely follow the development in the sports area.

This is what Mediavision’s Sports Analysis is all about.

  • Provides a comprehensive overview of the current Nordic sports rights market, per service and per country.
  • Data-driven and consumer-focused; designed for rights owners, sellers, aggregators, services etc.
