Ooyala now powers 80 percent of premium Spanish market
MADRID and SANTA CLARA, Calif. (July 22, 2015) -- Ooyala, a leading innovator in video publishing, analytics and monetization, today announced its trusted advertising technology is powering video monetization for one of Spain's largest broadcasters, Atresmedia. With Atresmedia, Ooyala now provides ad-serving and programmatic TV services to more than 80 percent of Spain's premium broadcaster and publisher market.
The customer win is indicative of the customer-first approach at Ooyala to provide solutions built to meet the specific needs of the world's largest content providers, understanding business and advertising nuances in individual European markets, and providing a first-to-market premium marketplace to trade inventory programmatically.
Atresmedia was one of the two largest broadcasters in Spain to first utilize Aunia, Ooyala's Spanish private programmatic video marketplace for broadcasters launched in February 2014. With Aunia, Atresmedia has access to a private premium marketplace, protecting their inventory's value and maintaining high CPMs. Using the SaaS-based Ooyala platform their online advertising solution can scale easily as online viewership and inventory grows alongside the future opportunity of digital video advertising in Spain. eMarketer predicts that online ad spend in Spain will rise from $1.24 billion in 2014 to $1.57 billion in 2017, representing a 26 percent increase.
Ooyala drastically reduces our online advertising issues and streamlines our workflows, said Beatriz Medina, digital advertising director of Atresmedia. They have the reputation we need in the premium content space to ensure our inventory is being purchased by the highest caliber buyers with the highest caliber content, maximizing our CPMs and ad revenue.
Ooyala has also seen strong publisher momentum in the region, including Grupo Godo, a media publisher for the Catalonian region, and Grupo Vocento, another Spanish publisher with national coverage and several local newspapers, radio stations and a localized broadcast network.
Our goal is to provide an holistic monetization solution for our customers that helps them build healthy online revenue streams across screens, says Sorosh Tavakoli, senior vice president of ad tech at Ooyala. This technology will usher today's largest broadcasters into the digital age, adapt quickly to shifts in the industry, and enable them to embrace and exploit new video trends.
