Rising costs, stagnating subscriber numbers, and growing competition - hardly any other industry is under as much pressure and subject to as much continuous change as the media world. The decisive factor for success or failure is how flexibly and quickly companies adapt to new circumstances and bring new innovative business models to the market: For maximum reach, content needs to be scattered across multiple formats, new channels need to be built, and ways of monetization need to be found.

Worth Knowing about the Digital Transformation in the Media Industry
-
How is Metaverse revolutionizing the media industry?
In the Metaverse, a digital space is created through the interaction of virtual, augmented and physical reality. It is a social medium that allows people to interact, communicate, collaborate and have property. The metaverse thus offers the opportunity to establish itself as a meeting place for a new creator generation. For the media industry, this offers a multitude of new opportunities to engage with consumers. Content will become even more cross- and multimedia-based and tangible for viewers. They can immerse themselves directly in the formats through holograms and VR in the metaverse.

Content Intelligence: How can AI be used for everyday media?
In tomorrow's media world, AI in the form of ChatGPT and Generative AI will play a key role. Content intelligence is becoming a crucial component here: Algorithms can be used to extract metadata - such as background information on relevant people and topics - from formats. With this knowledge, media can better align their offerings with their users. Combined with data on user behavior, the result is a comprehensive picture of the media's own target groups and their preferences. Finally, combining content and user feedback opens up new possibilities for user-based content strategies and new ways of monetization.

Smart TV, Virtual Reality and Co.: How do I reach my users anywhere?
The smartphone is still the undisputed number one when it comes to consuming media content. However, other devices, including smart TVs and in-car entertainment technology, have recently started to gain ground. The growing popularity of gaming is also making virtual reality increasingly popular. This also has consequences for media companies and their formats. They have to prepare their content differently from a technical point of view and adapt the storytelling to the usage situation - and, if possible, without much extra effort in production.

Cross-media: How can one content be brought to countless channels?
Varied and available everywhere - that's what users expect from media content. Suppose you want to meet these expectations and hold your own against the flood of providers. In that case, you have to rely on cross-media: Content must be available as text, video, and audio in multiple places to reach users, while cross-linking extends the user journey. This requires new channels, from social media to (multi-purpose) apps. For media, this means that a wide range of formats must be available for a wide range of devices - and as quickly as possible.

Creator Economy: How to keep up with big content creators?
The million-dollar business around the Creator Economy is booming - and there's no end in sight. Top content creators have followers in the high single-digit millions - a reach that seems almost inconceivable for media companies. To keep up with the competition, it's a matter of playing by the industry's rules. This means more live formats, more user involvement through interactive tools, and more vertical videos - and a close connection to major social media platforms. Smartphones and mobile editing are replacing complex productions.
