The Future Of Generation Z & TV: By Matt Britton

17 Oct 2018

Matt Britton argues that media is shifting to fully addressable advertising—local businesses will be able to target viewers precisely (e.g., people within one mile of a store). He observes Gen Z's unfamiliarity with traditional TV networks and highlights a mismatch: brands still allocate ~80–85% of ad budgets to networks. He predicts that TVs will act like giant iPads, with future interfaces organized around live sports, direct-to-consumer hit shows, and individual creator channels (YouTube stars) rather than traditional networks.
