ORIGINAL CONTENT VS LIVE SPORTS: WHAT DO FANS REALLY WANT?In today’s disrupted world, live sports are no longer the be-all and end-all for fans. Yes, they will still tune in for the big games but other forms of match content such as near-live and highlights are becoming increasingly important for a society on the go, used to consuming media via mobile devices. Also, for the digitally native fans of the YouTube generation, there is a desire for original bespoke content that is increasingly being catered for by rights holders and media - and even more so by the fans themselves. In this session, senior rights holders and media representatives gathered to debate what sports content fans really want, assessed how this is being delivered currently and analysed what the commercial opportunities are within this new media landscape.
