Claire Enders was featured in Broadcast article on "Enders: Channel 4 sale would have benefits"
15 October 2021Claire said “Privatisation gives C4 access to an altogether different kind of future – one of much greater ambition,” she said. “It is an opportunity for C4 to become a completely different kind of business - to greatly reduce its dependency on advertising, to be able to develop much more significant partnerships in the world, to have access to globally-relevant technology and partnerships…and secure access to global capital markets.”
She added “There is an opportunity for C4 to pass from the relatively troublesome stewardship of the government into a situation where it’s going to be able to regain its full editorial independence, which has greatly diminished."
Francois Godard was quoted in CITY A.M on "Uefa hands clubs power over Champions League rights in joint venture with ECA"
14 October 2021Francois said “It sounds healthy to me because if you award the contract competitively you have a better chance of getting value for money. I think the prospects are very bullish. It’s the best football competition in the world. The European public doesn’t seem about to change its faith. So if I were a private investor I would think it’s a very good asset.”
He added “Is it going to double in value in the next 10 years? No. Because this competition is very dependent on the competitiveness of broadcasting markets,” Godard added.
“In the past 10 years it went up but one specific thing stimulated the market, the entrance of BT. And that had an impact on the rest of the continent. We have no sign that this is about to be repeated.”
Apple's privacy push: Publisher ad revenue in trouble
14 October 2021Apple’s latest software update continues its drive to limit the data that can be collected about iPhone users as they browse the internet. Prior changes have had an effect on ad prices for publishers, and on advertiser results
The new changes target cornerstones of profiling and targeting: IP and email addresses. The impact will be gradual, but could be profound if takeup is high
The lesson for publishers is that no technical implementation of targeted advertising is safe. Layering third-party data on top of anonymous audiences is not a future-proof business model
Living with the Pandemic in October 2021
12 October 2021Enders Analysis has worked with the IPA to produce this wide-ranging study into the effects and key lessons from the pandemic for the marketing industry. Tracing what are likely to be permanent structural shifts in the economy, this report will quantify and explore the impact for the industry on mobility restrictions, the rise in ecommerce, the explosion of in-home media consumption, and shifts in media spend.
Douglas said "TalkTV will benefit from being part of a much bigger portfolio, including beyond the UK, compared to GB News."
James Barford was quoted in The Times on "BT boss Philip Jansen: We will compete like fury on broadband"
11 October 2021James said while a Sky-Virgin tie-up would be “unhelpful” for BT, it would be “incredibly problematic” for altnets with ambitious full-fibre plans because it would take away their chances of ever poaching Sky’s block of six million subscribers.
Claire Enders was quoted in the Financial Times on "Sky hopes smart TV set will make new customers tune in"
8 October 2021Claire said she expected that hundreds of thousands of new customers would join Sky and highlighted the mobile phone-like payment plan as a radical move that could open up the broadcaster to a new audience. “This is like the iPhone. It’s that kind of moment."
