NAB 2024 review: AI takes centre stage
Monetisation through personalised ad insertion
Apart from AI, monetisation is one of the other hottest discussion topics in the industry. And with the shift towards advertising and streaming profitability (see also Netflix’s decision to stop reporting subs numbers from 2025), ad insertion was on many people’s lips at NAB.
Personalised ad insertion at scale, combined with low latency streaming, has become something of a Holy Grail in the context of current market and technology dynamics, a new way of monetising ads and boosting inventory value as media companies hunt new venue streams.
