Current video and radio ads are perceived by consumers as intrusive and uninteresting. Furthermore, consumers have virtually no control over their ad exposure. They mostly remain passive in a push model of advertising. These arguments suggest the need for new video distribution architectures that allow content-enriched and interactive advertising systems.
New advertising systems will provide personalized ads that fit individual consumer interests based on:
Declared user preferences
Customer profiles (via opt-in)
Behavioral data (user's path)
The expected impact is improved attentiveness by allowing consumers to interact with brands while satisfying advertising criteria and constraints: short, contextual, diverse, imaginative...
The objective is to target and mesure audiences (I know who watches which programme), which will streamline the new media value chain.
Developing partnerships with European and international competitiveness clusters: a partnership with the Barcelona Media InnovationCenteris in progress, and a second partnership is also in preparation : Keti in South-Korea.
