- France represents over 50% of turnover for 64% of respondents

This document provides an overview of the esports industry, including key points about its rapid revenue and spectator growth expected through 2021, consolidation and vertical integration among major gaming companies, and a brief history of esports highlighting the role of South Korea in its rise. It also outlines some of the most popular esports game genres like fighting, strategy, and multiplayer online battle arena games.
Global sports' top-line metrics like sponsorship and media rights spending continued growing in 2016, but it was also a year of rapid change. Two significant shifts underway were China emerging as a major force in football through team and agency acquisitions, and OTT/direct-to-consumer services like DAZN gaining traction as the future of sports content distribution. Be it broadcast rights, digital assets or intellectual property, sports content has never been more valuable as seen in multi-billion dollar transactions like the Formula One and UFC sales.
During Euro 2016, 142 brands advertised across TV and social media platforms. While TV advertising was still dominant, only one-third of TV ads were related to football, missing an opportunity to engage fans. On social media, three-quarters of brands posted football-related videos, especially to Twitter and Facebook. However, many brands did not fully leverage multiple platforms or create unique content tailored to each. Overall, brands could better capitalize on major sporting events by developing more topical, platform-specific video strategies.
Regulations of the UEFA Champions League 2015-18 Cycle 2015/16 Season EXTRACT...GM BBI research & liaison
This document outlines regulations for media matters in the UEFA Champions League for the 2015-18 cycle.
It specifies requirements for clubs to provide media facilities and access, including opening training sessions to media, holding pre-match press conferences, and making coaches and players available for interviews. It also details matchday media activities like flash interviews and mixed zones. Additional provisions are specified for the final.
Call it a platform, call it a content management system, call it an “umbrella of interconnected services” — the set of tools the Post has built for itself is now being licensed to other publishers, who might find it more useful than their alternatives.
This document discusses using virtual reality (VR) for marketing purposes. It provides examples of companies that have used VR for promotional campaigns, product demonstrations, and other applications. VR can be implemented through mobile apps, 360-degree photos and videos, and interactive 3D games. The Tribe VR offers VR consulting and development services, with in-house expertise in game development, mobile apps, web design, and 3D modeling. They can help companies develop and integrate VR content and applications for marketing campaigns.
Executive Summary
This year’s key developments will centre on online video, mobile apps and further moves towards
distributed content. Mounting problems around online display advertising will lead to a burst of
innovation around journalism business models.
More specifically …
· Facebook/Google/Apple battle intensifies over the future of mobile and the discovery of content
· Messaging apps continue to drive the next phase of the social revolution
· Mobile browsing speeds up thanks to initiatives by platforms and publishers
· Ad-blocker/publisher wars move to mobile - they rage through 2016
· Fraud and fake traffic further undermine faith in online advertising
· Renewed focus on paid content of different flavours (given above) including crowd funding,
membership and micropayment
· Explosion of 360° video, auto-play video and vertical video (get used to it!)
· Growth of identified web (sign in and registration will be critical to delivering cross platform
personal content and notifications)
· Breakthrough year for Robo-journalism– strikes in newsrooms over job losses
· Another year of spectacular cyber attacks and privacy breaches
· More measurement of attention/impact, less measurement of clicks
· Messaging apps go mainstream at work (eg Slack, Hipchat, FB at work)
· Scheduled TV viewing on the slide as more viewing shifts to on-demand
· Rebirth of audio driven by internet delivery to mobile devices
Technology to watch for
· Virtual Reality (VR) hype goes into overdrive; leaves non-gamers cold
· Artificial intelligence (AI) and messaging bots
· Bendy and flexible phones; wireless charging finally takes off
· Drones go mainstream with registration required in most countries
· Smart mirrors just one example of growing visibility of the Internet of Things
Everywhere we will see the growth of analytics and data-informed decision-making in technology,
marketing and even publishing. In a few years’ time, it will seem extraordinary how uninformed we once
were.

European Association of Guarantee Institutions (AECM)
The 48 members of the European Association of Guarantee Institutions (AECM) are operating in 30
countries in Europe.
They are either private sector guarantee schemes or public promotional institutions or banks. Their
mission is to support SMEs in getting access to finance. They provide guarantees to SMEs that have
an economically sound project but do not dispose of sufficient bankable collateral. AECM’s members
operate with counter-guarantees from regional, national and European level.
At the end of 2018 AECM’s members had more than EUR 112 billion of guarantee volume in portfolio,
thereby granting guarantees to almost EUR 3 million SMEs. AECM’s members are by far the most
important counterparts of the EIF concerning EU counterguarantees, handling EU guarantees from
the very beginning in 1998.
