“Over many years SBS On Demand has built an important position in the premium video market with a deep library focused on building audience and scale through BVOD-led shows like Alone,”
– said Adam Sadler, SBS’s Director of Media Sales.
“SBS has always maintained a collaborative position in the market. We are very pleased to bring SBS On Demand into the VOZ Streaming giving marketers access to the diverse audiences who regularly come to our platform.”
With BVOD now accounting for approximately 10 percent of Total TV minutes viewed weekly, programmatic trading across SBS On Demand, 7plus, 9Now and 10 Play and will enable advertisers to aggregate the scale of BVOD services while managing de-duplicated reach and frequency (‘R&F’), and frequency capping.
OzTAM is working with broadcasters, media agencies, third party software suppliers and leading ad tech providers towards the launch of VOZ Streaming, and will share further updates with the market as the roll-out commences.
