APAC is the largest and fastest-growing region in the global market.

In 2020, more than 79% of people in Southeast Asia used smartphones, and 69% had access to the Internet. More people started watching mobile devices as a result, which helped the APAC market make significant profits. Additionally, the use of mobile apps for video game promotion is a significant trend in this region. The majority of regional mobile gamers use mobile apps to find new games. Hence, all these factors will thus drive the growth of the market in APAC during the forecast period.
The market is rapidly evolving with the rise of live streaming and video content consumption on smartphones and handheld devices.

Companies like Comcast are adopting Over the Top (OTT) services and Video on Demand (VOD) to cater to changing viewer preferences. OVPs utilize wireless telecom networks, including 4G and 5G, for seamless video delivery. They also offer services like transcoding, content management, and online video advertising for media and entertainment organizations. Some platforms are open source or offer free services, while others provide Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions for publishing, tracking, and storing video content. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year and the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The increase in streaming services is notably driving market growth. Customers now have more options for watching TV shows, movies, and original content online owing to the growth of streaming services like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Disney+. These services have become more popular, revolutionizing how people watch videos and upending established TV and movie distribution systems. They can easily manage their television content, store videos, and publish them on various platforms. Additionally, open-source and free online video platforms offer cost-effective solutions for businesses looking to reach their audience through online video advertising. This has made it possible for new players to enter the market and face off against established businesses.
Furthermore, the rise of smartphones and handheld devices has made live streaming more accessible, allowing users to watch live streams or video on demand (VOD) content from Over the Top (OTT) platforms like Comcast's streaming service and other Online Video Platforms (OVPs). Additionally, the increase in streaming services is also driving innovation in the market. Original content is receiving significant investment from businesses and is now a key differentiator for streaming services. As a result, high-caliber television programs and films have been made, and new talent has had opportunities to break into the industry. Hence, all these factors are contributing to the growth of the global market and are expected to continue during the forecast period.
Live streaming of videos is an emerging trend in the market growth. Online videos are now a vital component of marketers' and brands' strategic business plans for influencing consumers' purchasing decisions. Additionally, brand owners started using live video streaming as the standard norm. Real-time Internet broadcasts are referred to as live streaming. For B2C and B2B communication, inventive live streaming and campaigns has become a viable option. Numerous social media sites, including Facebook, YouTube, Snapchat, and Twitter, have invested heavily in improving live-streaming services.
The speed at which videos stream over the Internet will increase with live streaming. By 2021, video streaming will account for more than 80% of all Internet traffic. Brands are using live streaming to offer online tutorials, product launches, news and politics, humor, and regular series as it adds distinctive elements to digital communication. To monetize the live streaming, brands use micropayments, mid-roll video advertising, and social platform payments. Thus, these factors tend to grow the global market during the forecast period.
The free open-source video platform is a major challenge impeding the market growth. The popularity of video content is rising as more people around the world gain access to the Internet. Online videos are becoming an essential part of how brands are enhancing their online presence. Examples of free video hosting websites include Blip.tv, Metacafe, and YouTube. These free video platforms offer millions of videos on just about any subject. Additionally, they offer venues for commercial content.
As free video hosting services are becoming extremely popular, paid platforms are up against the fierce competition. Customers are not required to pay to watch videos online. Watching free services like live TV shows, sporting events, movies, and news is possible with a good Internet connection. For instance, YouTube offers better quality services in HD and standard definition (SD) for its viewers to watch live sports, programs, music, and movies online. Customers can stream content at their convenience, and it is available to audiences everywhere. Therefore, such factors will hinder the growth of the global market during the forecast period.
