2018 has been another incredibly busy year in the video industry, with all participants investing heavily to position themselves for a future ever more driven by technology and consumer changes. Growth in SVOD, connected TV and mobile devices, data-driven advertising, cord-cutting, virtual pay-TV operators and original programming continue to remake the industry from top to bottom.

Analyzing and reporting on these changes continues to be an endless and fascinating challenge. Hopefully I’m contributing to industry executives better understanding the chaos and how to succeed. Through daily posts, VideoNuze’s annual Video Ad Summit (which drew 350+ attendees this past June), consulting, teaching and other activities, I am deeply immersed in the industry.

A huge thanks to all of the industry leading companies that have sponsored VideoNuze in 2018, without whom none of this would be possible.  And a big thank you to VideoNuze’s daily readers, podcast listeners and conference attendees. It’s an exciting time to be a part of the video industry and to help contribute to its ongoing evolution.  

I wish you and your families a happy, healthy holiday season and all the best in 2019!
