BIA Estimates OTT Local Advertising to Exceed $2B in 2022; Sharp Increase in Spending Makes It Fastest Growing Local Advertising Platform
A new research report from BIA Advisory Services reveals that over-the-top (OTT) is one of the fastest growing channels for local media and increased at a rate of 43 percent compound annual growth from 2020 to 2022. Sponsored by Vevo, the report, OTT – The Rising Star in Local Ad Spending: Regional and Business Vertical Trends, shows that BIA forecasts just over $2 billion in OTT advertising in 2022, up from just over $1 billion in 2020. This substantial growth now gives OTT the distinction of being the fastest growing local advertising platform. BIA defines OTT ad spend as comprising ad spending targeting local viewers of long form premium video content delivered via the Internet.

In this podcast, BIA’s Leyla Chatti speaks with Kevin McGurn, President of Sales and Distribution at Vevo, to discuss how music distribution has evolved in the digital landscape and how they’ve successfully used OTT/CTV distribution strategies to build a leading music video platform. McGurn also touches on the opportunities for local advertisers.
To examine local OTT directly, BIA recently released a new research report with Vevo, OTT – The Rising Star in Local Ad Spending: Regional and Business Vertical Trends. The report shows that BIA forecasts just over $2 billion in OTT advertising in 2022, and why and how it’s fair to make the claim that the sheer number of impressions makes local OTT/CTV competitive with, but also complementary to, both linear TV and digital advertising.
