The increasing adoption of advanced technologies and innovative tools to enhance user engagement and streamline content creation is stimulating the digital video content market. In line with this, platforms and publishers are leveraging AI and immersive formats to meet the growing demand for dynamic, visually appealing content. Furthermore, the rising preference for short-form videos among younger audiences is encouraging platforms to introduce new features to boost engagement. For instance, in October 2024, Outbrain launched ‘Moments,’ an immersive vertical video format enabling publishers like Fortune and Axel Springer to transform static articles into swipeable video feeds. This launch enhances user engagement and provides advertisers with innovative opportunities to reach audiences beyond social platforms. At the same time, in November 2024, TikTok introduced Symphony Creative Studio, an AI-powered tool that allows marketers to create videos from product descriptions or URLs. By simplifying video creation and aligning with TikTok trends, this tool demonstrates the growing integration of AI in digital marketing strategies to cater to platform-specific audiences.
On the contrary, the increasing shift of audiences to ad-supported models in streaming services is positively impacting the market. Amazon Prime Video's ad-supported tier in the UK reached 68% of its 36 million users as of October 2024, highlighting a notable transformation in digital video content strategies. With BARB data revealing a 51% reach among UK audiences, Amazon Prime Video outpaced traditional broadcasters like ITVX and Channel 4, showcasing the rising acceptance of ad-supported models. Moreover, this shift reflects a broader trend where platforms are blending traditional advertising approaches with modern streaming dynamics to capture diverse audience preferences. In addition, the integration of personalized feeds and AI-driven content recommendation algorithms across platforms is expected to further propel the growth of digital video content, catering to evolving consumer expectations and expanding opportunities for advertisers.

According to the report, North America dominates the digital video content market due to its advanced technological infrastructure, high internet consumption, and a strong culture of digital media consumption.
North America is leading the market, driven by the region's robust advertising ecosystem, coupled with significant investment in innovative tools.

The integration of e-commerce and video ads for brands like Alibaba enhances consumer engagement, cementing the region’s prominence in digital video markets.
In Latin America, the market thrives on mobile-first video strategies, with Brazil leading in video ad growth.
